Funny, I hate to know the score of a Tigers game if I am recording to watch later. So some times with Directv if you leave it on the channel it will be playing live when you turn it on. So just in case I always tell my son (ever since he was young) to cover his ears, make noise and look the other way when I turn the game on. My wife hates this and just the other day he did this when he got home from school and the wife said I created a monster lol.
