I managed to sit through the Pats - Jax game, but it was pure torture with all the commercials. I am out of the country and the game is in Spanish so I muted it but it was an ordeal. It seemed like there were 5 minutes of commercials at a time, agony. I remember the old days when the games lasted 2 hours and were fun to watch. I really didn't care who won since I am a huge Pats fan but I live in Jax now so I would have been happy with either outcome.

So what do fans want? A blowout?

I'm happy it was a close game. It certainly kept people on edge, but I wasn't expecting either team run away with it. Great match.

He said the game sucked because it was slow as hell with all the commercials. Fans want a quicker paced game without the requisite 100 commercials after every drive I think.

They need to find a way to speed up the game. Do we really need to wait for the ref to verbalize the penalty over the loud speaker after penalties? MLB, NBA refs don't do this.

Or watch past games on YouTube. That would work too like me.

The networks believe we need to constantly be reminded about pizza, cars, trucks, burgers, tacos, Direct TV, smart phones, laptops & Bud Light (dilly, dilly!).

I'm sure it wasn't! Congrats on the win! This game isn't bad but going from Romo to these two is pretty boring.
