Quote: chickenmanNot just the highlights, but "Every touchdown from every game" so you get to skip all the 3rd-and-a-mile antics followed by the fair catch of the resultant punt, follwed by 5 minutes of car commercials...
I get to see that after the afternoon game on "NFL Final" on NFL Network.
Besides, the commercials are when I switch either to another game (if any interests me), or to Mythbusters (from 2 to 3 pm), or to an old L&O rerun, or do some cooking even.
Quote: SOOPOOThey will NOT get rid of the extra point. It is crucial for the agonizing 'commercial catch-ups' they do. If the first drive of the game took longer than a few minutes, and results in a touchdown, they usually squeeze a bunch of commercials in while they are reviewing the touchdown, a now all too common occurrence. Then they kick the extra point, followed by 4 more commercials. If they are really behind, they then shove four more in after the ensuing kickoff, which is usually a non-play resulting in a touchback. So you get 12 commercials for one real football play....
The above is why I have NFL Red Zone, commercial free football for 6 and 1/2 hours every Sunday.
the review of th touchdown will not be taken away. If its a complicated long review, they can still break away for commercials. And there is no commercials from the time the touchdown is official and the extra point kick. No lost commercials
The extra point kick does not give the network a chance to run extra commericals.
And then it is dead in the water, at least for this season.Quote: treetopbuddyApparently the NFL will do test run of the extra point from the 20 in the first two preseason games.
