......or am I going to be subjected to 45 minutes of mindless, idiotic, sychophantic blather, and crass, disgusting, materialistic commercials before the players actually take the field?

You don't want to watch that stuff before the game, but you don't mind watching all of it during the game?

There is only about 10 min. of actual play time in a 3 hour football game. The rest of it is the players standing around and mindless, idiotic, sychophantic blather, and crass, disgusting, materialistic commercials.
