The scoreboard video is no help as it shows ads from the team's sponsors. If there is an upside, it is that when the ad inventory is finished the breaks are shorter and game flow is improved toward the end of the quarter. That can really mean a difference in the second and fourth quarters. -- -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
