    That's not even a valid question. Football, by far. I played soccer all throughout my life, but I still think football is better.

    If you're talking American football, it drives me to tears. I can't stand the constant stopping and starting and the constant commercial breaks. And the fact that they're told to take extra time-outs just to generate more commercial money? *sigh* I prefer the free-flowing "beautiful game". Plus, the guys are nicer to look at :wink:

    I can't stand watching soccer-footbal, though I DO know the rules, thankyouverymuch.

    I played American football in high school, and still watch it, though I don't go crazy about it. One or two games a week at most. I have to really like (or really dislike) one of the teams playing or I could care less.

    Is this a bad time to jump in and say AFL? (please don't kill me)

    Always loved soccer, always will

    AFL (which is football to me) i live and breathe

    American football I like.

    One way or the other sport is sport and its a great thing to be part of a team sport watching or playing.

    well, for most of the world, football is "soccer."

    I think football (soccer) is better! Much more interesting, faster paced, etc.

    I'll maybe watch the superbowl but not really interested in American Football, even though I grew up in the US...

    The football that is called soccer. I think watching a football game in the stadium can be fun but on TV it's boring. Soccer is much better!

    Gotta go with american Football. They Knock the crap out of each other. If you tried that in soccer they give you a card. Not sure if its a Birthday card credit card or what.
