I would like to know why a game that is suppoed to take a hour turns into a 5 hour game? I know it because of all those extra commercials. And did you notice that after every play the clock stops running. What is with that? Then The clock stops while the player that finelly runs over or around oall the other players has to do a silly little dance and the clock stops again. Do you find it getting boring after a while? I don't mind some football but 5 hour od men runnung into each other and chaseing a little ball is a little much.

hehe...yes, mostthings which last too much time always make people feel bored. by the way,i'm not interested in watching football match,which is a difference between other boys or men and me. i just like playing football by myself ,but i occasionally watch the related matches on TV. also, i don't know about those famous football palyers and football teams in the world. i think it 's so boring. maybe you will feel that i'm a bit strange . hehe....but never mind. happy posting!

I don't understand what are you trying to say? We all know that football lasts 90 minutes and sometimes we have 2X15 extra time. No football match lasts for 5 hours! Except if you are talking American football or NFL. About that game I don't know much. But remember if you say football only people in U.S. will understand you. U.S. is the only country in the world who has word soccer for football!!! Strange!

I appoligize I should have said American football. since I don't much care for it I forget that other countires have different names for thing than we do. It may not last 5 hours but it sure feels like it.

I watch NFL. Every Sunday we can watch one game which is chosen by our TV provider. It is interesting game, but I don't know all the rules. I will try to find them on the web.

... well i think no matter football or soccer , all depend on commercials and sponsor to survive or else i don't think there will be any live matches
