I'd be very surprised if there wasn't collusion between the coaches & the TV company as to when the time outs are called - and even with natural breaks in play, they don't start again until the commercial has finished.

Like I said, the game itself can be very dynamic, it is the constant pauses I, personally, find irritating - just my opinion, of course
