you're going to see lower-scoring games and poorer quality of play.

all because the video generation can't sit still for more than 2 hours at a time.

why not have a running clock and get games over in 1.5 hours?

Dude CFB gametimes are pushing four hours.

This ain't young people's fault, and the first kids widely playing video games are in their 50s now.

Big f'n deal if they take 4 hours. If you're enjoying the game and there's a lot of excitement 2ho cares how long it takes. Academy games are among the shortest around but they don't draw big tb numbers when they play non academy teams.

The hardest ticket to get used to be the afternoon double header, 7 hours at the ball park.

Some of the biggest crowds out there are for Spa, Daytona and LeMans 24 hours of competition. Cricket matches often take 2 days to complete.

We just have a pampered lazy fan base these days. They're fans but only if it doesn't force them to make sacrifices.

Those of us that actually have a life are tired of 4 hour games. The NFL is able to get games over in less than 3 1/2 hours. And I don’t see anything that’s hurting their game. Once again you make no sense

As someone who has roasted in many of those noon time 4 hour games, it ain't enjoyable
