TV broadcasters not pleased with popularity of no huddle offenses

[concise]

the advertising exec in a company that runs ads like "SafeAuto Play of the Day" or "Fantasy impact players brought to you by Progressive", the type of guys that actually read Wall Street Journal everyday, they probably care a lot about this shyt.

I don't want to hear about that either. I'm not pleased about the length of broadcasts getting longer year by year, as proven by the fact that we now have games that used to start at 4, then 4:05 and 4:15, now 4:05 and 4:25, just to fit in as many commercials as possible.

Breh, unless you got millions of dollars you're willing to hand over to Roger Goodell, nobody gives a flying fukk whether you want to hear that shyt or not. It's business. That's how these corporations eat off the NFL. Billionaires read newspapers too.

Team scores a FG...cuts to commercial....comes back from commercial....team kicksoff, ball goes thru the endzone.....goes to commercial again as offense runs onto field.

Lazy b*stards angry that they have to stay on their toes for play calling instead of some shytty anecdote about how they talked to a former player about a current player.

I'm sure they could find ways to get their ads across using on-screen graphics or something without stretching games out.

FYI, tho this is the WSJ, the article doesn't talk about advertising at all. It's all about the challenge from the broadcast booth and the way they have to adjust calling presenting the game.

Yes, a business/operating issue...which is why it would appeal to a WSJ reader. It's not like this was printed in SI or ESPN the magazine. And the advertising is there between the lines.

They spent billions to have the rights to show NFL games, while I don't expect you, the fan, to empathize with their issues, there are many who find them interesting, even educational.

That doesn't mean EVERY SINGLE ARTICLE the WSJ has ever done is for one type of audience. You can't possibly be that stupid.

If this article were written by Mike Freeman, Dan Wetzel, or someone from NFL.com, I might agree with y'all complaints.

But this is a WSJ article; you and I are probably not the target audience. No consumer is gonna read this article, call up their nearest NFL franchise, and demand their team run less no huddle offense. But for the TV producer that's trying to produce the broadcast, or the advertising exec in a company that runs ads like "SafeAuto Play of the Day" or "Fantasy impact players brought to you by Progressive", the type of guys that actually read Wall Street Journal everyday, they probably care a lot about this shyt.

So, yeah, for the Coli this is a non-issue. Just something to bytch about because it's Friday and we're waiting for the weekend.

So then tell CBS, ESPN, Fox & the NFL Network to step they muthafukkin game up & adjust they shyt. If they aint got time to talk about X-Factor & 60 Minutes, so be it

Yeah, that's not an option. The whole point to paying so much money to broadcast the NFL is so that millions of people can be exposed to the dozens of other shows those networks have. You might not care, but that's a priority to them.

Breh I'm not one of these simpletons who doesn't understand how TV marketing & ad revenue works so spare me. My point is that if they're having trouble b/c of the no huddle, then guess what? The NFL & it's TV partners are going to have to adjust their strategy to still get those promotions seen & heard

It's not rocket science. BTW, stop for these billion dollar corporations, it ain't a good look
