I had a pretty shitty day yesterday, didn't get home until almost 10pm. I was really looking forward to watching the US vs Guatemala World Cup qualifying match which was supposed to start at 10. then the stupid college football game that I didn't give a shit about ran super-late, almost 45 minutes. then, at the bottom of screen where they incessantly crawl information, they tell us "Freddy Adu scores goal in US's win over Guatemala" before they even show the game (which was obviously recorded previously.)
Motherfuckers!

fine, just don't spoil it on that damn crawl at the bottom of the screen for a game you're about to show.

I thought Freddie Adu was a bust. And like actually 27 years old...

You've been paying too much attention to Tony Kornhieser.

Usually if a game runs over into another scheduled program, they'll run a crawl letting you know if it's on another channel.

Too bad Tivo isn't smart enough to figure that out though.

Yes, he does a radio show for just me and beams it into my head.

I do think he's actually older than he claims, though.
