Unless you’re the kind of geek with no interest in sports, then it’s pretty easy to understand, as we’ve observed people ”geeking" out to this field of endeavor our entire lives, and we understand it’s REALLY important to other people, but not to us.
A cousin also without the sports gene told me a great way to avoid the ”what do you think of the (local team)?” questions.
Just reply in an exasperated tone ”Christ, don’t talk to me about the (local team).". They typically agree, and then they’re off and running, and you can just nod every now and again in agreement.
