I think the rule could go by averages. Thus a real man watches only two to three games on TV a week, depending on the sport.
I’m a huge basketball fan, I have a sports blog, and I’m a retiree. I watch a lot of games during the season. And how about other retirees who are fans of other sports. Do you think they watch just three games a week? I would bet many watch every game their team plays during the season. But so what? It’s like saying a real man should only go fishing three times a week. Whose business is it what someone does with their time? The thread is a joke.
