Each night it takes me away from my family and my wife wouldn't mind if I scaled back on it. .
This would set off an alarm bell if it were me - where there's smoke .......there's fire ? It's the old..... ' if you're wife ain't happy...ain't nobody happy ! ' mind set.

If you ditch the racquetball in lieu of spending more time with your family - it's all good. Family first.

You can easily derive the cardiovascular benefits you got from racquetball in other ways ( ditto for the quickness, agility etc. you got from racquetball ) and likely in ways that are transparent - time wise - to your wife & family.

btw - do you do any outdoor exercise with your wife ?........... Golfing ? Walking ? Jogging ? Swimming ? Biking ? Tennis ?
