How I DVR Sporting Events

Lew and I always enjoy watching the Home Run Derby... without the commercials, of course.

ESPN has it scheduled from 8 PM to 10 PM (Eastern time).

Two hours?  Seriously??

From past experience, I know this event will last more than two hours.  It is televised LIVE and always goes longer than the time slot.

When I programmed my DVR to record it, I opted to stop recording two hours later than the scheduled end time.

Here's hoping the Home Run Derby does not last over four hours!

(Postscript:  When I'm recording a sporting event, I always choose the maximum additional time.  With our DVR service, that is two hours.)
