Don't the Americans have a problem with games that can end 0-0...? Draws are kinda an alien concept to them. Certainly American Football has had something like two or three drawn games in the last 30 years or so. If two teams are evenly matched, why should a draw not be a valid result?

Also, football is not stop/start enough to allow for the multiple Advertising breaks that US TV companies all like to have, so it's hard for them to generate revenue with limited airtime.
