I don't care about sports at all. Still worth it?
That's who it's for. It's not fandom — it's having something to say when it comes up.
Will I sound like I'm faking it?
No. Every line is written for someone who caught the highlights, not an expert.
Which sports?
NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, plus your local teams.
