Had a brother ring me years ago while I was watching the delayed ch 7 broadcast of Tigers v Norf. We were winning by about five goals at three qtr time until Wankery ran amok in the last n tore us a new one. Bastard rang me up to hang sh!t on me just as the last qtr started on the telly n gave me the final score, completely ruined my footy evening, just flattened it.
Always turned the phones off during a delayed telecast after that, not such an issue nowadays as if I can't get to a game its on live broadcast.
You want to try watching Test Cricket on a live stream in Denmark (which gets about a minute or two delay) with an idiot friend watching it live in Melbourne texting me every time we lose a wicket.
