Not everything you do in life must be an "efficient use of time". It's entertainment. Something fun. Why do people go fishing? Skydiving? Go see a movie? Listen to music?
You watch hockey because you enjoy rooting for a particular team and love the game. That's not a waste of time. But going through decades of history and learning about past players to be able to compare them on a hockey forum? Yeah, I'm not doing that. Might not make me the best hockey fan in the world, but I couldn't care less.
I never said that being a hockey fan is an efficient use of time. Knowing players from the 60's shouldn't be a requirement to be one though.
