Sammiey....you don't even have to ask! Soccer is the BEST sport in the world.  There is not a better game in the world!!!\n\nMichael Owen, Wayne Rooney, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Ronaldinho, Robinho, Lampard, Del Piero, Totti, Nedved, Adriano, Donovan.  I could go on and on.  These guys and many others are the best athletes in the world!

It's the most popular sport in the world.  However, it is really known as football around the world.  American's named it soccer because, well they needed a silly name to call it, since they had a sport named football that really doesn't make sense to call it football.

It´s the best sport because you don´t need sophisticated stuff to practice it, just a ground, a ball and improvised goals. More than a half of the world loves it. I respect all the sports but you can read here to intolerant people offending just because they ignore the skills, intelligence, resistance and speed that soccer has.

It is a 'No Brainer'... Soccer is by far the very best sport of the three listed in the question.  American Football is a distant second.  It can be fun to watch but the games take far too long and more often it is BORING!  It is fun to shoot hoops or play a pick up game of Basketball but basketball is a joke.  Ice Hockey, Baseball and Lacrosse are the best team sports as well as Soccer... Soccer can improve its exposure world wide by relaxing the offsides rule which in my opinion will lead to more scoring.  Soccer also needs to do more to limit the clutching and grabbing as well as the diving.

Not sure what the allure is in other countries, but here in the U.S. most televised sports contain more action.  Few other sports can run the entire game with only one score. OK, hockey is like that, but there's more action without scoring than in soccer.  Soccer is gaining in popularity here, but don't look for it to bump any mainstream sports off the tube in the near future!

Agreed.  \nBut then look at Ireland... Soccer is a sub sport (Eiercom League) compared to GAA.  Granted the Ireland International squad consists mainly of premiership or Championship Div. players and is decent although didn't qualify Euro 2004 or World Cup 2006.  But Gaelic sports are still No. 1 here.

No, sport is a direct competition of fastest, strongest, and other physical activities. Not who can lie the best, not who looks the prettiest as in other sports. Sport should have to be something that you sweat for.
