Baseball is a 4 hour food court that people buy tickets to eat at.
The NFL is a platform to broadcast 120 commercials woven into 15 minutes of action over a span of 3 hrs 20 mins
We are more conditioned than Pavlov's dog.

When I watch the NFL, I watch zero commercials. I also generally ignore all comments from people who make the choice to watch them.
