Since this forum has members from a lot of different countries and cultures I thought it might be interesting to find out what sport everybody likes best. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world so it will probably be the clear winner, but I figured that people might learn about sports that they have never had the chance to play.
My favorite sport to play is tennis and my favorite sport to watch is American Football. And since playing is more fun than watching, my favorite sport is tennis.
I love playing football and basketball. I watch football, basketball, soccer and MMA (UFC, Pride) if you consider that a sport. The X Games (skateboarding, bmx, etc) is really fun to watch too.
Hockey. I don't like sports, really, but when I do feel like watching a game I turn on the Leafs, or go down to the SkyDome and watch a Jays game with a friend or two.
Well I swam in high school and I've played a bit of tennis since finishing college, but I think I'll have to give it to another sport for coolest/most simplistic concept, the caber toss. I bet it'd be the barbarian's favorite.
Track and Field, the truest test of athletic ability.

Hockey was up to 2004. The hockey strike that canceled a year. I have been on strike against hockey since then.
Football AKA soccer to Americans is my favorite sport at the moment.
I also love Sky Jumping and Downhill skiing. I like to watch curling as well.
I am thinking of boycotting the Olympics since it is no longer about the amateurs but instead it is the pro athletes and about Big Business that gets the attention.

On Strike and supporting Fallout 4 Mod Makers
Some fallout 4 mod makers have had their mods stolen and uploaded and downloaded on Bethesda's site for the Xbox One.
I play football, basketball, tennis and badminton.
And yes it is FOOTBALL.
Not American football.
No...no- not soccer dammit! I mean look at the name- 'football'
Yes you play with mainly your foot or feet. Yes...yes you kick the thing around.
In American football, you grab the ball with your HANDS and run...and you kick it sometimes....
Am close to throwing a fit now...and you are all responsible for it.
Why call football as soccer. AAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGhhhhh
We should rename American football.
Further post should include an alternate name for American football and also include your favorite sport!
I start- Alternate name:
1. Ovalball
Yes the ball is oval. So that's why.
Let the revolution begin.
Edit: nevermind, I googled it... I don't know what it is... but it looks cool
At a friends birthday party in the mid 80's I played against Stephen Hendry in normal 8 ball. I did not know who he was and he whipped my behind. He did give me a chance to win. If my memory serves me right he was crowned as the Scottish Amateur snooker champion at the time. He was in Canada to visit his relatives in Canada

In the normal world, we call what the Americans do as........
Tada- American Football.
Soccer is the sort of second name of real Football!!!! And I demand the real name be reinstated.
That is why I said American Football should have a different name to avoid confusion.
Did I just confuse everyone here? I think so....
American football, I hereby name you Ovalball!!!
The agility of a tennis player.
The strength of a football player.
The quick mind of a race car driver.
Basketball
Billiards
Snooker
Rise and rise again, until lambs become lions
