I must be one of very few males that have not interest in Football or basket ball.

I hear ya, golfingnut. I went through high school clueless about what was going on on the football field (small school, not very good team). I went through UGA bored with going to football games--bored!! UGA! Many good pros came out of that school. I went through the Steelers Steel Curtain era and only watched four super bowls.
When our second son started playing football in 5th grade, I called the quarterback the "thrower," much to everyone's amusement. He went on to be varsity. Of course we went to every game, and somewhere along the line I got hooked. It didn't hurt that the Steelers were having a great run back then.
But if it weren't for that forced attendance...
