I loved the title of this post, and I loved the post too. I didn't watch any of the women's soccer finals....we (my partner and I - we're a zero-sport-watching pair) were almost tempted when everyone was watching the game against England but then remembered that we don't get free-to-air TV! (the antenna broke off our roof 6-7 years ago) and couldn't find any other way to watch it. It's the only time it's caused any angst - we felt like we were missing the excitement, & probably, for the other reasons you mention, that it would be supportive to have watched....but since there was nothing to be done, I went upstairs and read a book instead.
