There is no doubt it's Soccer.  That is the only major sport in all of Europe as well as South America and Central America.  \n\nAnd now that the U.S. is becoming a large and popular sport (the men's team is the 6th ranked country in the world and the women's team is the 3rd best), soccer has and will continue to top the rankings.

I'm gonna have to go with the most popular sport in the world on this one. While I think Ohio State vs. Michigan is up there, I'm going to have to go with Real Madrid vs. Barcelona. Many other soccer rivalries could be chosen as well but this one stands out to me because of one game I remember. Figo, an ex-Barcelona player turned Real Madrid player, came back to Barcelona's stadium. While taking a corner kick, the stands showered him with flying objects and curses. Right before he was about to kick, a head of a pig went flying onto the ground next to him. Soccer fans must be the most intense of all sports.

Soccer is the most popular game in the world because anyone can participate in it! The game can be played by poor and rich, you do not need a certain amount of money in order to play or observe this great sport. Soccer is a game of passion and a game and of hope. Soccer is the sport of the people! Soccer is a game that unites countries on the field and does not see political beliefs. Soccer is simply the a tradition.

Basketball would be the best. Soccer is more famous but if your looking for the sport with all the satisfaction and coolness then basketball is it. The fact that your good at it only improves it. Basketball needs way more physical fitness and mental attitude and if your a basketball player you'll gain an air and an attitude unlike in soccer. So take my word as I play it myself and go to basketball.

I would say Football. Baseball lost so many fans with their strike a few years back, it will never have the same popularity it once did. Basketball season is too long, and there's been far too many antics off court by players to make it a serious game any more. Football has by far the most fans, as proven with Superbowl Sunday... it has the highest cost for commercials, and more drunk driving tickets are given on that day than any other.

The World Cup is the largest sporting event besides the Olympics, where 32 nations compete in the game of football (soccer according to Americans) in order to determine the world cup champion.

Soccer...to me its the most physically demanding sport (besides Rugby).  Its also one of the few sports out there that hasnt changed to accomodate the fans.  Most people tend not to like it cause its low scoring but thats what makes it exciting.  Also when a goal IS scored...its actually worth something unlike in hockey where now everyone and thier brother can score a goal because of the rule changes for the fans.

rugby, soccer, and cricket.  There are, also, over 400 golf courses there.  Tennis is pretty popular, too.

Well association football (soccer) is popular, but the national sport in terms of spectator popularity is almost certainly Cricket, followed by Australian Rules Football, and then Rugby League.\nSoccer is the most popular participation sport, but mainly because of it's popularity with under-18's! It is growing amongst adults, and will continue to do so, but the traditional three still hold sway for adult participation. \nNetball is the most popular participation sport for women.

Futbol, it's so popular that everyone, from kids to grown up people sees it, and even plays it.\n\nWe have an important history with Baseball as well.

In terms of a football competition, the FIFA World Cup.\n\n      However, as an overall athletic event, the Olympics, due to their history, and the amount of countries and people they bring together, is by far the better one.
