Hate the commentators? Now, there's a solution!

I've read in the past that some posters hate certain commentators, and just wish they could turn them off. So, when I read this tip, I thought I'd share...if you have a home theater sound system, turn down or disconnect the center channel.

I just want to have a receiver with an adjustable delay to sync up the radio broadcast. With sattelite as your video source, the radio is almost always ahead.

If you have cyclones.tv you could listen to the live audio and pause it until it's in sync with the TV?

I've always wondered how well this would work. I feel like the timing would always be a little off, and that would bug the crap outta me.

Got my dad one for Father's Day one year. Adjustable to delay the radio to match TV.

My dad and I used to turn the TV volume down and listen to Pete Taylor and Eric Heft on the radio. It was always fun to see how far "off" the broadcasts were. The radio was usually a bit faster, but only ever by a split second so you might here Pete shouting "it's good!" just as the ball was entering the rim but before it had gone through.

My dad and I did that same thing once, back maybe in 80s sometime. At first I marveled that Pete was able to call a make or miss almost before it happened then we realized the sync was off. Although I am quite certain Taylor was pretty close to that anticipatory.
