"Every year this is my biggest gripe with the show. I'm not sure why it's so difficult, other shows do this s**t live don't they?" a user commented.
"It's this bad with everything on HBO, not just Hard Knocks," another netizen commented.
"I know for last week tonight with John Oliver they are also not synced up as well so it's an HBO thing. Live subtitles in general are usually hit or miss but most of the time they are not synced perfectly either but ......shows are not live so there is no excuse for it being like this for almost 10 years," another Reddit user wrote.
"I fu**ing hate this crap," another fan wrote.
