OK -- but come on, man ... 11-15 minutes of actual football in 180-200 minutes of a game?

Check out Olympic hockey to see how time should be used efficiently in a team sport. They have 60 minutes of play and two 15-minute intermissions to clean the ice, and the average hockey game has around 55-65 stoppages of play that require a faceoff ... and they get through that all of that in about 2 hours and 15 minutes.
