Answer:

The manager asked a question about sports costomers watch instead of sports they participate in

Explanation:

The question which sports they watch most often on television would not help the store. Because the costomers only watch these sports on TV, it is not saying that they play these sports.

If they dont play the sport, then they wouldnt buy the things for that sport

I dont know if my explanation makes much sense, but I hope i helped!
