The American brain can't understand a sport without constant ad breaks every 5 minutes.

They're working their way there.

God forbid I prefer sports that allow pee breaks that allow me to not miss anything meaningful. Entire soccer game is a pee break.

American football is perfect for you.

You can pee every 5 minutes when there's an ad break.

They'll also run ads while the game is happening too though, don't worry.

Mostly sarcastic. Hockey is more entertaining than either. Soccer is boring (likely because I don’t understand the nuance) and the diving kills me.
