I Love Tivo
Sports fans have been given a ton of great stuff in recent years. HDTV gives you a fantastic picture. The internet makes it easy to follow your team and read about them on great blogs (shameless plug) But there is nothing better than Tivo, or any type of DVR, because it allows you never miss a game, a play or a moment in a game.
I am giving thanks for my Tivo today because I have two events I want to watch tonight. The first is obvious if you read this site. But as much as I want to watch tonight's game, there is something I want to watch more, the Rangers-Capitals game. Normally, baseball comes first, but playoff hockey trumps regular season baseball so I will be watching the Yankees-Red Sox game on delay. Thank you Tivo!
Speaking of the Rangers, something occured to me the other night when I went to their game. (Andy talked about great sports days the other day, Wednesday was one of those for me. Came home from work, caught the bottom of the 14th and then headed to the hockey game) The great thing about MSG is the way it is designed, the luxury boxes are at the top of the arena. That means that from the ice to the roof, you only have seats and seats full of screaming, passionate fans. I haven't been to the new Yankee Stadium, but I think they have put way too many expensive seats in the way of the real fans. It seems like they have taken some of the homefield advantage away which is really a shame. (And of course they are going to do the same thing at MSG)
Anyway, enjoy the game, but don't tell me what's happening until tomorrow!
