42. I'm not a guy
but I count it as a plus if a man doesn't know who's playing in the upcoming Super Bowl and a minus if he thinks it's really important. Enjoying it, but realizing that it's not important is a neutral factor.

The number of men my age who can talk only about their jobs and sports is really dismaying. I bet it goes a long way toward explaining why the political situation in this country is so bad.

If Marx were writing today, he'd say, "Professional sports are the opiate of the people."
