Wives watch sports for husband’s sake, [View all]

LOS ANGELES — Face it, men, your wife doesn’t really love NASCAR.
A study published recently on the sports-viewing habits of married women found that wives were more likely to watch televised sports as a means of maintaining their relationship with their husbands than for their own enjoyment.


Either I really don't understand my Wife and Sister or this is missing something. Maybe just the sample size was way too small.
But my wife rarely misses any of the top three tiers of Nascar races. (Can't say the same myself) And it was her idea originally to get tickets to see some races live. And then there are the UCONN Women's Basketball games. Don't get the TV coverage we would like but when they are on, you know where the TV/DVR is set.
