This is from the FAQ for Sportsnet Now, but I believe applies to all streaming services:
I don't know enough about all the ins and outs of the IT world to speak definitively, but I suspect there will always be a 30-60 second lag in streaming.
Of course, it's possible enough people are like you and find that lag unacceptable enough to the point that cable will always have a market.

I'm not a technical genius, but its just a different broadcast method. I'd be confident that streaming lag will be solved relatively quickly (if it isn't already). I can Facetime or Skype with someone with no delay so don't see why streaming sports would be any different once you have enough bandwidth to accommodate everyone.
