Yeah, I'd be bored to tears if I were to try watch football solely for the action aspect. The game is a big chess match with stop-and-go action thrown in.
Shit yeah! I love football! I love all of the time-outs and commercials and standing around. Almost too action-packed for me. OMG I just fainted!
I'm with you here. Football is my least favorite of the 4 main sports. Baseball is my favorite, that has the most action.
Man, you have strange concept of "action". Mind you, I like baseball as well, but
definitely not for the action aspect. If one were to split a sport in a strategy/action continuum, baseball's one of the primary examples of a sport being mostly on the strategy side of the chart. That's why baseball comes out so well on radio, whereas a more action-oriented sport, say like... hockey, just can't be delivered well in that medium.
