A boring game but not as bad as basketball, in my opinion.

A 90-minute game takes a few minutes more than 90 minutes to play (plus the intermission)--not as bad as American football which is supposedly 60 minutes but takes much longer.

Not a huge fan of watching any sport, honestly… but soccer is god aweful.

Just hockey at 1/10th speed

I only watch the last two minutes of basketball in the final game. It lasts about 15 minutes with all the stops, starts, timeouts, etc.

At least with soccer the game is over in less than two hours, no commercials except during halftime.

So an hour of actual playing time in football takes 3-1/2 hours at least. All those stops and starts, tv timeouts. Darn good thing I enjoy watching it, minus the commercials. Can’t stand watching all the stupid ads, even during the Super Bowl.
