It seems the article misses the point of outings with the boys. Men tend not to bring things up unless there is some discussion about how to fix it. 4 dudes can't fix someone's health problems, but they can go fishing, which at least makes the now pretty good, even though the immediate future might not be. Having good people around you reminds you that if you did come across something that could be fixed, the guy next to you in the fishing boat would help out.
