It's super frustrating. My mother has ruined several matches this year by emailing me results before I see them on the stream.

My cousin was nice enough to call at kickoff and paused his game until the FuboTV feed that I was watching caught up. Then we could text spoiler free for the rest of the game.

Clearly you should use a script to delay your emails by 1:40 as well.
