Goodell Talks Improving Viewing Experience, Including Fewer Commercials

If you are one of those people who hates when an NFL game goes to a commercial break after a touchdown only to see a touchback on the ensuing kickoff lead to another series of commercials, get in line to join the club. I’m in there too. So is Roger Goodell.

Of course, the difference between us and Goodell is that we haven’t been profiting off of all those commercials, so evidently it took the league a ratings scare over the course of the past season in order for them to finally take action on addressing some of the very real watchability aspects of the average football broadcast.
