I had it all planned out.  
1- Setup Ceton InfiniTV to record every game.     :'(
2- Be a hermit while at work.
3- No radio in the car.
4- Forewarned my family to not discuss any matches until the following day.
5- Stream important games live, watch others later that night.
I had a similar plan in 2006.  I recorded the Brazil vs Crotia match, I believe it was a round 1 match.  I got home maybe an hour after the coin toss and started watching.  I was using a Comcast DVR at the time as I didn’t have a DCT.  I was watching the recording while it continued to record the live event.  It was a little before half time when the recording stopped and the damn Comcast DVR reverted to Live TV.  It was still on the same channel so I see the “Brazil 1-0 Croatia” right away.
