TiVo will let users auto-skip the football to watch just the Super Bowl commercials

Super Bowl Sunday. The day we switch from being annoyed by commercials to being annoyed by all the stuff between the commercials. Football? Bah! We’re here for talking babies and beer frogs.
Looking to tap into this, TiVo is flipping its tagging system upside down for a feature they’re calling “GameSkip” — behind the scenes, they’ll be marking the football stuff as commercials, and marking the commercials (plus the half-time show) as the show. As a result, that “skip” button on your remote generally reserved for skipping past commercials will instead skip to the commercials.
