Football is a much worse offender. The amount of time spent waiting around just goes to show how it was perfectly made to generate TV advertising revenue.

- adanto6840 12y agoWith TV timeouts, sure. But generally this seems mitigated in football IMO -- the combination of: A) the play clock (requiring the offense to start their next play quickly) and; B) the fact that every single play has one or more players interacting with the ball, and some sort of an outcome from it. Football has a methodical pace similar to baseball, but the biggest difference IMO is that in baseball a high percentage of "plays" (pitches in this context) don't actually result in any "action" and instead are just a ball or a strike.
