Default Game Timing. How Long Does It Take

COACHES,


How long does it take to complete an entire game in the various leagues and styles of play around the country.

1) What do you think is a reasonable amount of time to complete four quarters of football ?


2) Is there a way to play an entire game and shorten the length of time to play it ?

3) is it possible to play 3 to 4 games on a saturday or sunday in 7 to 8 hours /

i calculated 7 t0 8 hours using the american work force daily routine.

So for instance, if your working a Dolly Parton, how many games can you have in the bank leaving at 5pm.

Im my opinion, a game should not take no more than 2 hours, and if it does, can someone calculate how to simplify a game day.

Since we dont have tv commercials holding us up, why does 4 fifteen minute
quarters that shake out to an hour, take almost 3 to play.
This probably can get wrapped up in an hour and a half. "I COULD BE WRONG" BUT I WANT TO HEAR SOME SCENARIOS ON HOW COACHES/LEAGUES AROUND THE GLOBE DO THIS.


PLEASE ENLIGHTEN ME AND THE EF WORLD.

PS/ PLEASE CONSIDER EVERY GAME SITUATION (IE; RUNNING CLOCKS, TIME OUTS, ETC ETC YADA YADA YADA)

Default Well Dre

The games THAT HAVE BEEN GETTING PLAYED in the BAM have been taking 2 1/2 to 3 hours.

But don't worry Dre - we'll have plenty of time to get in our game and time for one more for you to play to get caught up.

How many plays did your teams get in in the 2 1/2 hour scenario?

Default DFW = 3 hours

The DFdubbya is right in line with the NFL. 3 hours for us.
