What's the Rule on In-Game Distractions?

So as game three tips off I am curious how much focus sports truly require. Certainly, this type of event is tremendously influenced by the teams playing: if any Boston team is on then I am going off the grid. Now, let's assume it's two teams we don't give a fuck about, and we have already decided who to root for ... Is there such a thing as unacceptable distractions? Obviously regular season games don't require as much from you, and the begining of any game is usually meaningless. Different sports require different attention spans: looking at you first 46 mins of NBA games. Like hockey - it's hard to text during a hockey game, gotta keep the eyes on the prize. I think commercials were invented for the things that HAVE to get done within the three hours of a sporting event. Piss, snack, reply to the side piece, et cet. So there is this built in time for you to be "distracted," but during the game are you on the webs? Reading blogs? Sexting a new chick? I know dudes who will basically just have the game on in the background and not truly tune-in until crunch time. I guess we are all different, I'm writing a fucking blog during game three of the NBA Finals for fuck's sake, but let me know what you think is unforgivable as far as distractions go while watching a game.
PS Definitely have turned down sex during a big game, but also been blown during a PATS game. Risky, but combining the things I love most made me think I was in love. #wifematerial #focus
