Yes, because it's supposed to just magically predict when live events go overtime.
Yep, that's exactly what they need to be able to do, and frankly it isn't all that difficult. During sporting events it is almost rarer than hen's teeth when CBS doesn't go long. Seems the million dollar players and their advertising crap can't play a one-hour game in less than 3 hours or so. Been going on long enough that Dish should have figured that out.
Or barring that, allowing for a manual extension by the user on those nights they just know that CBS is going to be running long. I know that I pad them quite a bit and still sometimes it goes beyond the 30 minutes I add.
