How do you cut time down without sacrificing advertising revenues? This is why there’s sumo hockey at intermission and what (I’d imagine) Rogers Sportsnet would have a massive problem with, especially with how much they spent on the contract.
But I agree, way too long and too much entertainment competition now. Pro sports needs to adjust to keep revenue growth profiles.
I did my best to try and watch NFL this year but the amount of commercials is beyond ridiculous now. Up to 6-8 more commercials today than just a few years ago and continues to increase. It’s awful.
