A few more gripes I would add to your list:
Stop the idiot announcers from talking about anything other than the game at hand. I used to mute the TV and listen on the radio, but they made that impossible by delaying one or the other so they don’t sync up.
Stop showing clips from other games that run so long that you miss parts of the game you are actually watching.
Cut back on all that silly CGI graphics stuff, especially the ones that make the players look like Transformers toys.
Show the halftime entertainment instead of cutting away to a studio where washed up former players say nothing about nothing.
Last and most of all...
NO MORE PINK!
BRAVO !
There hasn’t been halftime entertainment for a long, long time at NFL games. Way back when the Pats very often had Morgan State and Towson state marching bands - awesome. What they were doing up in Boston/Providence I’ll never know, but, they were there, a lot. Sometimes now they blindfold a guy and he tries to find a tackling dummy but mostly its just commercials over the PA and on the screen. Also it’s only 12 or 13 minutes now - the seats are still empty when the first series of the second half starts, odd since often it’s the key series of a game.
I agree completely, especially the CGI stuff, which has been a pet peeve of mine for some time. Can’t understand why they show it, when games are too long anyway.
