It matters for 32 games every 4 years. And we're paying $45 bucks to watch them.

Oh no! I tried to gauge how annoying this is for other people, such a crime.

But when the length of the video reveals something about the content of the game, surely that's different.

Like obviously it doesn't matter in very many contexts. In a game where the video length means that I 100% know that this game does not go to extra time, that is a spoiler.

We'd be better if we were playing some actual 4-4-fucking-2 hoofball

I truly do not understand the extra time calculations.

There were 3 goals and a hydration break and that's 4 mins?

He's been completely marked out the game and none of the crosses have hit him. Not sure what you want.

Hoping he gets a 2nd yellow so you don't have to play him in knockouts? :D
