Why Don't You Follow Other Sports?

No he doesn't. The only time he gets paid to watch is when CBS has him cover a game, and then he gets paid to watch snippets of games when he does the "color committee" thing on Sundays. That's only a very small percentage what he does. His radio time, his CBS sports minute time, and all of that other stuff involves him NOT being paid to watch games. He has to watch games on his own time (and after all, games aren't on from 5:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. or noon, which is when he's paid to be at the radio station).

You're conflating the fact that he has to watch games to be able to do his job with the idea of him being paid to watch games. Those are two different ideas. Boomer works more than 40 hours per week where he's NOT watching games during that time. He has to watch games at other times.

It's just like if you were a doctor. You'd not be paid to read the JAMA, for example. You need to do that on your own time to keep up with the knowledge required to do your work well.

And likewise, I'm not paid to practice my instruments. I have to do that on my own time.
