Severe - Drop everything you're doing. This is Boise State vs. Oklahoma, Lebron vs. Pistons, and no-hitter in the bottom of 9th territory. Find the nearest TV post-haste.
High - Any game that is in overtime or extra innings, and sometimes just a close finish or upset possibility will reach High. This game is definitely worth turning on the TV for.
Elevated - An Elevated game is starting to get good. This is a tied game in the top of the 9th, or maybe a ranked team down at halftime. If you already have the TV on, you might as well click over and check it out.
Guarded - All games start off as Guarded. Snoozers and blowouts are Guarded. Not even their momma would vote for a game that's Guarded.
