I think sports watching is going backwards due to technology. The whole point of watching sports is that it is LIVE.

My parents have Shaw and their neighbors have Telus.

The game is behind on Shaw then it is on Telus and the neighbor always texts my dad about a goal in advance of him getting to watch the goal being scored.

Now online streaming has the same issue- 45 seconds to a minute delayed behind the live trackers on NHL.com and updates through Score or ESPN app. Now I've had to shut off alerts on my phone so the game doesn't get spoiled - score alerts AND twitter!

My entire life I grew up watching either Satellite or Cable TV and never had this issue once. Only started happening since Shaw switched to IPTV and streaming became more popular. Even Center Ice seems like a waste of money due to IPTV services being delayed.

Any suggestions or other fans being frustrated by this?
