So my problem with sports on Peacock is that it seems difficult to view live events in progress from the beginning. I watch almost all I’ve sports that I DVR on like a 30 to 60 minute delay, so I have a buffer to use to fix thru commercials. I noticed during the Olympics, and on the Thursday Night NFL game, that if you join a live event it starts you in the present moment, without the option of starting from the beginning. You can rewind to the start but: 1) have to remember to mute the volume and avert eyes from screen to avoid seeing score and 2) if you pause for longer than 30” or so, when you come back you can not pick up where you left off. This is a bummer. With the Olympics at least, if you wait until the event is over and archived, *you can start from the beginning.*
