So what DO guys talk about?

I recently came across what I thought was an insightful quote from sports journalist S.L. Price concerning the 'language' of us older men:

"When a woman asks a man - back from golf, the bar, a game - what he and his buddies talked about for the last four hours,the mumbled reply of "Nothing" isn't designed to drive her insane. It was, indeed, four hours of "nothing" which, for guys, is...everything."

I'm not saying everyone can understand that. But I sure do.
