Taped a Euro match earlier today to watch tonight, the semi-final between Turkey and Germany. Watching the tape now and at half time of a tied match they play a commercial for the finals for Sunday!!!

If you are showing a tape delayed version of a game why are you telling us the outcome? The game is tied, it's been a good game so far but now I feel like the second half is going to just be a lesson in futility with no drama at all.

To clarify, the match which I taped was already a taped delayed version of the match.

That game was played on Wednesday. I'm sure they figured folks knew what happened by now.

Yeah, I was getting real tired of ESPN Classic for a while there. I taped the 49ers/Dolphins Super Bowl off of it, and then in the first quarter, they go in studio and start talking about Marino never won a ring.

I'm glad it's just the Sklar brothers and poker now.

Yep, exactly. I'm sure they figured the people that were watching the replay on Sat were doing it to get ready for the final.
