Default I hate late night sports

So I'm watching tennis right now. Which I love by the way (Second behind NHL). Anyways, I wasn't sure what tourney this was so I went to TSN.ca to find out. Sure enough, on the front page it says who won this match. I know, I know, I'm an idiot for looking in the first place, but ffffffffkkkkkkkkkkk thats a piss off. What's the point of watching now.

Fffffffffkkkkkk, I wish TSN (and others) had spoiler alerts! Hah I know thats to much to ask, but fffffkkkkk I wish I didn't know the outcome to this match.

/rant.

Sports reporting is based on being timely and immediate. You can't expect spoiler alerts from TSN. Their primary job is to report what's happened.

That isn't so bad- I would expect the same by going to their site.

What I hate is watching a tape delayed game that has a live ticker below; so every 3 minutes it gives the score.

NHL Network used to be very bad for this, and then during the lockout they would show old NHL games and tell us "this is the game where the Penguins came back from being down 4-1 to win it 5-4. Let's watch."

What I hate is when you PVR a game and your friends know you do....but they still text you letting you know how bad or good it is going.
