Another witty, trenchant gem, my friend!

Here is some anecdotal data. My GenZ/millennial kids will absolutely not watch baseball. OK, my 22-year old will sometimes flip iton for 45 seconds so he can make sarcastic remarks like "Why are all of those fans in the bleachers asleep?"

Golf. That's not even on the table. No NASCAR, we live in a blue state.

So what will my kids watch. Basketball, Lots and lots of it. Olympic events like swimming, skiing, and snowboarding. World Cup soccer. Extreme sports. Football, only to the extent they have fantasy football players involved.

As you wrote, they just don't have the attention span for anything that is slow. But when there's a lot of action, they're all over it.

Man, I just can't.

The day after the soccer world cup people started congratulating me. I thought I either forgot it was my birthday or I was pregnant until someone reminded me that I am argentinian.

PS. Your 22-year old son is a hilariously snarky young lad, please extend my wink of approval
