TiVo is fun

One of the greatest things about TiVo: Being able to watch the Lakers lose in fast forward against Detroit in the final game of the NBA Championships.
There's a very strange satisfaction that one can only feel from watching the Lakers lose in fast-forward. Instead of just watching the entire game unfold in real-time, TiVo gives us the ability to condense a 2 hour game down to 60 seconds, and still derive the sense of exhiliration watching the Pistons smash the Lakers.


The game isn't yet over yet, but it's clear the Lakers have given up.

sad. no one likes the lakers. but, yeah, it was quite painful to watch it in real-time. i almost started rooting for the pistons, except they obviously didn't need any help. "p maybe this will make the lakers wake up and realize they need to be a team. i wonder how many riots LA had on account of the loss.
