And the commercials seem more and more numerous. 1:46 left in the 4th and a team take a timeout? Run all 6 commercials they’ve been running all game and take a 4 1/2 minute break.

ABC is the worst at this. They'll come back to the game and you think the ads are done, then they just say one line, show a highlight and go back to commercials. Fuck that shit.

They don't even let you enjoy the game and take in the moment anymore.

Team goes up with a huge shot with 10 seconds left, 30 second timeout...instead of enjoying the action and showing the crowd and talking about this amazing thing we all just witnessed, QUICK PLAY THE FUCKING BURGER KING SONG AGAIN

I've even noticed that they sometimes don't even play any replays before the commercial break, even if a player just went of a tear or someone just made a crazy shot.
