But you have to use that power wisely. If you start sending 10 tweets a day it's not like that number magically goes up by 10x. It means that people unsubscribe or they get fed up with reading all your crap. Which is about where I'm at with facebook. Sure, put some targeted ads in there. But if every time I go to the mobile app I have to scroll through 2 pages of companies my friends liked or another Samsung Galaxy ad. I'm going to stop using it.

It's starting to turn me off. Somewhere in the scheme of things it decided that I was a smart and wealthy individual and must want the new Samsung S3. There is a massive banner ad on my facebook page and all over the android app.

No. I don't care about the fucking S3. Move on. Now it's starting to show me that my 'acquaintances'' liked Walmart or Levi. Wouldn't I like to like them too?

No. Sweet Jesus. It's turning me off where I'm ready to move my stuff. Problem is I'm an amateur photographer. I have close to 20,000 photos tagged and sorted in facebook, all with comments. But if this keeps up I'll take my business elsewhere.

Say offense defense is evenly split. So 5.5 min each.

Now people that are on the line (essentially the pack in the scrum, hope you know Rugby as I'll do it from that perspective), they're ALWAYS active, maybe not the last few seconds of a play. So lets say they do 4.5 minutes of work a game.

Quarter back is probably also about that involved. So lets say 4.5 minutes for him too. Now all the other positions. About the same as in Rugby. How often does a wing get the ball? So I'd say the running backs, and receivers may actually 'do work' for 4-5 minutes. But most of that work is 'uncontested'. So they're just sprinting down the field as fast as they can. So in 10 second increments.

And then there is the kicker. He may probably spend a total of 30 seconds doing something for a whole game.

And for this they get a few million a year.
