Default Brake fluid change?

Ok, my brake fluid looks terrible, so I want to change it, but I don't want to make this an all day affair opening and closing the bleeder valve like 20 times per hose to get all the old fluid out. So, if I throw on the russel speed bleeders on all 4 corners, could I just have all of them open at the same time just letting the fluid spray out on the sidewalk and just pump the brake like a madman while someone pours fluid in the resevoir and then just close all of the bleeder screws after all the lines start running clear?

anyone see a reason why I shouldn't bleed the new fluid through this way?

you basicly have to bleed the fluid that way

and have someone hold the brakes while another follows the lines. if your leaking fluid though your brake should suck
