[QUOTE="Car, post: 875572, member: 72474"] I also don't like all those breaks in the NFL. It feels like playing for 10 seconds, standing around for two minutes, playing for 10 seconds, standing around for two minutes over and over again. I really like long passing sequences in rugby and AF just doesn't offer that either. It's not exposure since the NFL has been popular since the NFL Europe's success here and easily is the most popular of the big four North American leagues here. While rugby has grown in recent years, it can only dream of the NFL's coverage. I used to like the NBA in the 90s, but am not that fond of it any more. I should add that I basically never got to watch full matches back then. While the number of breaks in the NBA aren't as bad as in the NFL, they are far worse than Eurobasket in this respect. I only managed to get into the NHL since I came across a live match in HD. I just failed to follow the puck in either analogue PAL or digital SD, so I gave up trying to get into ice hockey back then. The NHL does have too many matches at too unfavourable times for me, so it's early matches + playoffs mostly. [/QUOTE]
