Front Office Football Central - View Single Post - 2014 Winter Olympics Thread- Sochi (spoiler tags for events that haven't aired)

Might as well establish this early since we have this argument every 2 years: Spoiler tags for anything that happens in real time before the NBC (or CNBC or MSNBC or whatever) broadcast or open season on spoilers as they happen in real life?

I'm always for the former with spoilers before it's on tv because, for some reason, I can suspend disbelief for the Olympics and we can't visually see things that happen before prime time here. But, of course, for the other side: we live in an interconnected world so results are everywhere. ESPN seems to love to plaster it across the front page in what seems like a dickish way to give spoilers and get people to watch anything but NBC that night.

And, of course, the important question: what channel is curling on?!?
