Uno dei più grandi eventi sportivi dell'anno raccontato e analizzato su Twitter.

The New York Giants. The New England Patriots. Super Bowl XLVI. The matchup is set, and the world’s biggest annual sporting event is upon us.

After 17 weeks of regular season games, three weeks of playoff dogfights and more dramatic moments than we can count, Eli Manning and his G-Men from New York will collide with Tom Brady and his perennially contending Pats. But the ad-heavy Big Game doesn’t actually kick off until 6:30 p.m. Eastern Time on Feb. 5. That leaves two weeks of hype, hoopla and histrionics to endure.

Secondo uno studio del Wall Street Journal i minuti di football giocato in una partita del campionato NFL sono in media 11.

So what do the networks do with the other 174 minutes in a typical broadcast? Not surprisingly, commercials take up about an hour. As many as 75 minutes, or about 60% of the total air time, excluding commercials, is spent on shots of players huddling, standing at the line of scrimmage or just generally milling about between snaps. In the four broadcasts The Journal studied, injured players got six more seconds of camera time than celebrating players. While the network announcers showed up on screen for just 30 seconds, shots of the head coaches and referees took up about 7% of the average show.
