not saying they made the whole thing shorter, saying they cut out the actual content of fighting games for chipotle ads and various developers to announce random crap for upcoming games

Good if you like ads, bad if you like to see Evo.

They seem to have made time for "stage production" (introduction of players with a little music, etc etc).

Didnt they run super late last year, and it cost them extra $$?

Day 2 of Evo split SF6 across two streams, so the matches can get in quicker. And those two best of 5 matches can cost them an extra 30 minutes of air time.
