It depends how much time I have. If I have time to sit down and watch the whole thing start to finish then I try and not have any info on it beforehand.

If I don’t have time to watch all of it I will usually keep track and then fast forward to the important spots.

You can atleast skip through the commercials.

constantly.

and then just watching the best parts on the recording.

which is probably a lot easier for me than most of you guys in and around Arlington. I don’t hear anything about the game in Salt Lake and I avoid LSB while the game is on and ’til after I watch it.

The last couple years I have just recorded the games and watched them after the wife and daughter are in bed.

…I’ll wait for thirty minutes before watching, just so I can skip through the commercials for most of the game and catch up.

In a related note, has anyone tried out the MLB iPhone App? I’m extremely tempted to fork out the $10.

I never watch it any other way. The 45-60 minutes you save is invaluable.

I’d also recommend not spending much time here at LSB, either, as spoilers are imminent. And i’m probably not telling you sumpin you don’t already know, but if you are watching on FSSW rather than 700 channels, be sure and record the next hr or so that comes after. Nothing sucks worse than investing 2-3 hours of your precious free time, and then the game goes to extra innings…without you.

This must be killing you. Now, when you want to scream DFA HIS ASS in the GDT, you’ll be all discombobulated and such.

Just to RUIN your effing day!

You KNOW you won’t be able to hold off knowing the final score until the re-run, at least I wouldn’t be able to.

This represents a huge conundrum for me. It’s so hard (1) to improvise a news blackout until you finally sit down at home and watch the game…I have to listen to WRR-FM classical music on the way home from work to keep from going crazy, and (2) to resist the temptation to listen to the game. I can already feel myself being persuaded to jettison the ruse and just turn on the radio.

and stay about 30 minutes behind, so i can FF through commercials.

the times when i do have it recorded the whole way before i watch i generally like to avoid all information about the game. it just adds to the excitement.

If I miss it, I miss it. But there’s no sense in trying to avoid looking at the box score, and once you’ve looked at the box score there’s no reason to sit through the game.

in the hell do the Rangers have an off day on Tuesday?
