Remove The Video Time Delay From Sports on TV



Remove The Video Time Delay From Sports on TV



Sports on TV isn't really live.


There's something special about seeing a sporting event as it actually happens. The funny thing is when you watch an event on TV, it's actually delayed about 10-30 seconds, so if you were on the phone with someone who was actually at the game, they can tell you what's going to happen before you see it on TV.

The primary reason for the delay is to give the broadcasters an opportunity to censor out any offensive language before it hits the airwaves. That few extra seconds makes a big difference when a sportscaster gets overly excited and accidentally curses on the air.

That said, there's no reason why they can't give people the opportunity to watch the video portion in real-time... as it happens, along with live crowd noises, then play the commentators audio 7 seconds later.

The great thing is when something happens, you get the same sensation a person in the stadium gets when a great play happens. You witness the event along with the people in the stadium, and then hear what the commentators say about it later. For that brief time, every emotion you feel is yours, and it's not influenced by the announcer.

Keep in mind they would still need to play interviews with a delay in order to keep the voices in sync, but for the game itself, people should have a way to see it live, if they want to. In order to accommodate everyone, they could show the game on two channels, one with the delay, one without. I'm guessing that given a choice, quite a few people would pick the live channel over the delay.
