Fox Football Sunday?????!!!

It is Sunday: God's seventh created day and His day of rest, the kid's last day of play before the bondage of school, and my last day to fix the lawnmower before returning to the habitrail of employment. Sunday, that day when we do as the Lord says by keeping it holy. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.

Yes it's Sunday, and for you TV watchers out there you know what that means... COMMERCIALS!

I Hate Sundays because Sunday is about football, and football is about waiting. Waiting for the when-the-hell-are they-ever-going-to-end commercials that deny me my constitutional right to actually watch a play.

When you are a kid playing in the empty lot by the house, you huddle, you run the play, you get tackled, you do the next huddle, run the next play, and repeat until touchdown or interception, at which time you start over and continue until your Mom calls you inside because it's dark and dinnertime. There is constant movement and, despite the huddles, fairly rapid play.

NOT SO IN THE NFL!

First you have the pregame shows and commercials.
Then the banter with the control center in NY, and commercials.
Then the flip of the coin and commercials.
Then the prekickoff and commercials,
The kickoff
commercials
several plays,
a quick commercial,
an injury & an official timeout
sandwiched in between commercials,
and then more
God
D****
Commercials!

****For the record, that's "Danged" above.

Sixty minutes run slow inside the black hole of television. Outside the TV hours, days, weeks, years go by. Civilizations rise and fall, your beard grows grey, the aliens land and stay for supper (to serve man).

So will someone please tell me, when is the revolution? I want to know where I can go to get my scythe or pitchfork. Lets all go kill and burn. Next stop, Castle NFL. Exterminate the coaches, lawyers, executives, and the rest of the parasitic classes.

Then nirvana will come. Sunday will be restored to sanctity - Quick plays called by the quarterback, commercials at the quarter or halftime only, and water on the sidelines (not fans blowing cooooool refreshing mist off of iceblocks made of Aquafina).

Right...
...After this brief commercial break.

Next Sunday's topic? Wired helmets, and an argument for Electronic Warfare on Gameday!
