Was listening to a discusion on MPR today and the topic was how much action time do we see on TV,

Part of MPR tanscript

If you're tuning in to any of today's postseason baseball games, consider this: Though you may have the television on for three or more hours, you will likely see only about 14 minutes of action. As for the rest of the time? Well, there'll be likely some 40 minutes of commercials, 10 or so minutes of replays, and close to an hour and a half of players just standing around. That's, at least, according to an analysis by Wall Street Journal sports reporter David Biderman, who joins us now from New York. Welcome.

For the rest of discussion.

I hope you all dont think I was trying to make a comentary on baseball I just thought it was intresting and if the full transcript was read a better understanding of the discusion would be understood.

At the end he mentions Football has 11 minutes of action.

I was thinking about something else when I read this thread.... grin

And the answer in None! wink

I get frustrated with all the questions and she gets frustrated with my lack of involvement.

Nice!

DVR!!!! One of the best inventions ever! Sit down at least 45 minutes after it starts. Skip all the commercials. I would much rather watch a recorded (or delayed) show than live.

      Problems with Yetti

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
