Commercials are unfortunately a necessity, the cost of producing content is so much higher that most people can imagine and it gets more expensive every day. In the case of the NFL games, the gate receipts from the stadium that must be shared with the stadium owner and the visiting team fall grossly short of covering the expense of fielding the team, without advertisers and sponsors the football, and entertainment industry for that matter, would fail almost immediately.
Nothing is free, including the internet, what you get for “free” is paid for by the advertisers.

Carpe diem quam minimum credula postero
Society is produced by our wants, and government by wickedness; the former promotes our happiness positively by uniting our affections, the latter negatively by restraining our vices. - Thomas Paine, 1/10/1776
