yeah i was in france in november and watched a vikings/packers game in 2 hours and it was delightful. then i realized it was tape delayed and all the garbage was edited out. shame how commercial interests have ruined the league.
yes, i watched ravens-texans on C+ and noticed how french editing has changed, much closer to the real game pace (seeing 4 quarters go by in half an hour was surreal) but still tighter than what monday night football is like on american TV.
