SO do you think that football is the king of sports??? and why?

I vote yes because :
It is very popular not only in my country but all over the world and it’s called “The king of sports” because the tension and the adrenaline during the game make you so excited and that is why so famous all over the world and that is the reason that football is not boring.

I'd like to ask before I cast my vote: are you referring to football as in soccer (for United States folks) or football as in NFL (National Football League) where a sport in style of rugby with protective gears?

It's just that this forum is open to all nations and I can anticipate some confusion to the word "football" with certain nationalities.

He's referring to soccer, since he said in his post that it is popular not only in his country, but all countries. And footnall is only popular really in the U.s.a . Soccer is the best sport because every country plays it. No matter what ethnicity you are, you most liekly no how to play soccer!

NFL-type football is not that popular worldwide and more people watch FIFA type football than rugby. I'm guessing you're referring to "soccer", JackTheRipper.
Yeah, I'd have to say that the beautiful game is indeed king of sports. If a billion people watch it and the largest sports contract to date was made in that sport (Beckham contract) I'd say it's well qualified for the title.

The question in my country (Australia) in regard to football is.. which type of football is popular. Down here you got Australian Rules football, Rugby union, Rugby League (League & Union are 2 completely different codes) & Soccer. Soccer has been on the rise lately considering the Socceroos appearance at the world cup, but considering the amount of bandwagon supporters around the place, with them off the soccer bandwagon, there are still an amount of casual sport fans (those that follow any code), followed by "new" soccer fans and those long term hard-core soccer fans.

But yeah, out here.. its either Australian Rules football (by far the most popular spectator sport, and junior sport.. followed by the 2 rugby codes).

I definitely would have to disagree that football (soccer in my country) is the king of all sports. It is a bit slow and a lot of controling the ball rather than taking lots of chances. I prefer hockey over soccer any day. Much more entertaining with all the hitting, fighting, break aways, etc. Plus, there is a good amount of control in it like soccer but much more shooting and oppertunity for scoring.
