Best Answer

until the referee blows the whistle, the ball is in play

^^ not technically correct. the ref doesn't blow every time there is a throw in/goal kick/corner and the ball is out of play when these things happen.

the ball is in play for only about half an hour per match at most standards, knocking on the door of 40 mins for premier league and stuff.

Play time for each player depends on the skill and position. If you are referring to the NFL or College Football, players that start play usually only one position. Anywhere from High School and below, many players play several positions. To answer your question, the average football player will play around two quarters, or 30 minutes of actual game time, depending on the game, skill level and age.

Each play is 8 seconds.

140 plays in a game = 19 minutes for a total game

Actual game = 3.5 hours

Translation = 3+ hours of watching advertisements, replays, and "experts" giving their opinion.

I assume you mean American football. Game time is 60 minutes, divided into four quarters. Actual playing time is usually about three hours.

Can you call a time out in the middle of a play in football?

No, a time out can not be called in the middle of a play in football because if the play is already in play then there isn't allowed to be any interferences such as a time out after the ball is hiked and before the officials rule the play done. A time out can be called right before the play begins and after the play is ruled dead by the officials.
