So let's look to the NFL, as an example. It won't be long until a challenge results in an automatic commercial break, the announcers will have no clue what justified the call, and the game will become unwatchable.

This is the reason I enjoy recording (or "tivo") my favorite shows and football. I can fast forward over the extra-loud commercials and watch the event in half the time.

Oh, and two more things; the umpires will be discouraged from making controversial calls (for fear of being proven incorrect), and the rules will be “relaxed” during the playoffs.

Just check the NFL Network schedule. They replay games on Tuesday through Thursday with very few commercials and no huddles. Football game in one hour. Sometimes 90 minutes.
