Obviously Association Football is the most popular sport in the world (even people who hate it can admit that), but which sports complete the Top 5? By which I mean, sports with the most countries that play it to a high/decent standard.
1) Association Football
2) Rugby
3) Basketball
4) Baseball
5) Field Hockey
Discuss.

What the fuck is association football? You mean soccer
Why are you so fucking autistic? I only added 'Association' for the sake of pissy Americans who'd whinge if I just put Football. Be happy that you're pandered to this much.

I mean your list is already objectively right, so it's hard to discuss.
Tennis, golf, chest etc are not sports. Although I probably have Cricket on their, and basketball might be higher than rugby just objectively.
>rugby
basketball is extremely popular in china and the philippines m8
1) football
2) basketball
3) cricket (solely because of poos)
4) rugby
5) baseball
Basketball is throughout N America, Asia, Europe and it's in the Olympics. So basketball goes ahead of rugby.
This is the correct order.
Apart from shooting, I actually agree.
1) Football
2) Gymnastics
3) Tennis
4) Athletics

>chest are not sports
I disagree

are not sports. In order to be a sport, the activity must have a ball/puck/egg/whatever, have two competing sides in which one wins, and not use judges to score (i. e. scores are objective - a 3-0 score in soccer is unquestionable, while a 6.77 average judged score is subjective). Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
also add the criterion that SOME kind of physical exertion is present, disqualifying pool, billiards, and snooker
That's a whole different thread
hockey is #1
and not that faggot shit on grass
how many people in the world play F1, like 20?
partly true british diaspora took it to far flung parts of the world.
but now it has a sizable hold in europe notably france and Italy and eastern europe is seeking greater participation
the USA actually used to be an enthusiastic rugby nation coastally but was deposed by gridiron because there was little uptake centrally and rugby remained amateur while gridiron embraced professional pay packets and marketing
Is there a problem with surgical enhancement?
Anri
yes.
Is it about fans or athletes? I think you can only use a mixture of both. F1 for example has millions of fans around the globe, but no one actually is involved in racing, let alone F1 racing. Track and field for example has a shitton of athletes, but virtually no fans despite being the core sport of the olympic games. Only football can say that they're the worlds leader in both.
