Hilarious! And he's completely right, watching other people playing games rather than playing them yourself is silly.

I disagree. There are lot of things people watch that they could do themselves. Sports being the most obvious example. 

Actually, that's not always an option. Some people aren't good enough to actually be on a team, or then end up as bench warmers. Hockey is far from an obvious example since there is a crap ton of cost associated with it. Basketball is cheap, but again it comes back to the first point, then genetics also has its part to play. Football? Same as hockey and Basketball. Soccer is likely the cheapest but still falls to the first point. It often becomes far more about the roots of the team instead of the actual game being played and the association with that not unlike pride for a brand or country lol.
