Divide the game into quarters instead of halves, shorten the actual playing time by about half, and permit the coaches (no longer called "managers") to call a few 5 minute timeouts.

Bring in cheerleaders doing cartwheels too, so the men in the live audiences have something to watch during the commercials.
