Ok, well im from England and football (soccer) is by far my favourite sport. True soccer isnt a high scoring game, but the quality of the goals is what does it. The skill involved scoring the goals just makes my jaw drop sometimes. Maybe its becasue i was always around soccer when i was growing up and is always on the TV. Like many of the people here who are from America and hate soccer, i feel the same way about american football and basketball. To me i cant see the skill involved in football, just throwing and catching a ball, not like you can do tricks or anything. Plus if they so big and strong, why they need padding? :wink: Where as basketball, i have been to watch a game in America, its a good game to play yourself, but watching it is kind of boring. Since the players score so many times, it gets repetitive. I havent watched or played a game of baseball, but from what iv seen, its just like rounders. I have seen ice hockey in England, only good when players get slammed or have a fight :) Btw, its Beckham 8-)
