But Americans will still say football/soccer is boring 
Ohhh its too low scoring... yeah, that's cause people actually play defence. Not even that low scoring when you consider some American sports add lots of points for one score. If football was like your football where one score = 6 points then football games would finish like 18-12 and suddenly y'all would love it

Did a report on this in a marketing class about 15 years ago. Average amount of time football was actually being played was about 11 total minutes. Baseball was about 8 minutes.
Couldn't measure hockey, soccer, or basketball because the pace is ongoing.

Not even surprising.
The craziest thing I heard recently though was that NBA Basketball averages a stop in action every 40 seconds because of all the whistles/clock stoppages and timeouts. That's crazy and I'm sure throws off a lot of pacing. We rarely ever get a full minute of straight NBA play without an interruption of some kind.
Part of me thinks it's because the league doesn't want games to be too quick and if that's the case, then they should increase downtime between quarters rather than disrupt action.

Idk the plays come quick when you're in the stadium. I remember watching them Chip Kelly Ducks once and the pace was crazy. But I would definitely say Football on TV > In person
