        There just isn't enough football airtime for the advertisers to  
create such short commercials. All of the other major sports here  
have time-outs that last at least 2 minutes, so 30-second spots are  
about as short as they go. That's why they go with that picture-in- 
picture format which reduces the game to an area the size of a stamp.
