Well, at least that implies some "skill". As an aside, there was some 
post or other, which was reposted on a blog I read, which broke down 
what goes on in "American Football", in terms of time spent. This was 
the break down:

45 minutes of commercials.
83 minutes of people standing around talking (I think it was like 37 
minutes of that which was couches, and other non-players doing that).
11 minutes of actual play time.
15 minutes of replays.
