I don't have much interest in televised sports events any more.
And I don't think any male in my family has any interest in televised sports.

The ones who major in math, physics, assorted fields of engineering, computer science, architecture.

None of them ever gave a damn about sports. I was very thankful for that.

My present husband is an Oklahoma Aggie. We only get interested in football when they have a chance of stomping OU in the big day-after-thanksgiving rivalry.
