We've had our Tivo for almost 2 years now, and we love it to pieces. Alec was just raving this afternoon because he was able to watch two races (Nascar and something else) at the same time by pausing one channel, then flipping over to the other to watch for a bit, then pausing and flipping back. Then tonight, we went to the grocery store without missing John Adams on HBO. Even though it wasn't over when we got back, we started from the beginning while Tivo recorded the end (try that with a VCR!). Tivo is basically the best-loved piece of electronic equipment in our house.
But here's the trouble with it - we watch most live sporting events a few minutes behind the actual "live" broadcast. This is so we can fast forward through the commercials. However, people like to call us at pivotal moments in key games to see what we think. And then if we don't answer the phone, sometimes they just call back, until we pick up and explain that we're a little behind.
So, here's a preemptive announcement on the eve of the big Kansas/Memphis game. We will more than likely be watching on Tivo. We will more than likely be anywhere between 5 and 10 minutes behind what's happening live. So, don't call us, we'll call you!
Rock Chalk Jayhawk!
