Which is why NFL is king because most people don't DVR NFL and watch it days later.

Yes, I know some of you run the game 10 minutes behind so you can surf through commercials, but majority of people want live.

Hell with texting and Fantasy Football stat updates it's almost impossible for me to not get spoilers during games.

i dvr nfl. i pause it, so i can start watching 30mins or so in, so i can skip the boring bits -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 4, 18:49 3
- I can't watch if it's been spoiled. If I know the score is 17 to 10 and I am watching a taped delay showing 3 to 7 I simply can't keep watching. -- nm - Noloha, Bacon Mar 4, 18:50 2
  - I got a question Tru. does it bother you when ST is posting NFL news and scores? Or can you still watch a game delayed? -- nm - Noloha, Bacon Mar 4, 18:51 1
    - dont care really, mostly cause i am probably not reading st at that time. -- nm - tRuMaN Mar 4, 18:53
This argument also goes for reality shows like Idol and the Voice. They demand live viewing. -- nm - Mop Mar 4, 18:45 1
- Yep. Going to work after a popular show like that is almost sure to be spoiled. - Noloha, Bacon Mar 4, 18:47
