Live sports and DVR

Why does the splash screen that comes up when getting ready to watch a recorded live sports program, show the score of the game?  This defeats the entire purpose of recording a game to watch later - why would anyone want to know the score of a game before you watch it?

You can turn off sports scores in settings--preferences.

I have no idea either.  If they just spent the coding time they did on other features tons of people have asked for years about it would be much more appreciated.

Anyway, you can turn that stupid feature by going into the box's Settings and under Preferences you'll see Show Game Scores And Completely Run Your Experience (well, I added that last part) and you can toggle that off.
