I grew up in a latin country of Europe and, of course, I love soccer. Everything else seems less interesting for me. But I can be wrong. Have your say!

It seems that everyone is going crazy over the world cup. I would say soccer. Definitely. The guys in my house don't sleep for the sake of this game. Imagine so many guys chasing over a ball???
i think rugby is pretty cool actually...watched a game recently and was amazed!
I would say Mixed Martial Arts by far. In my opinion, it is the most intense sport today, and it requires the most intense training.
I have an interest in archery, but I am too afraid to learn it.
It seems really cool, though.
For me its basketball and field hockey. I also like rugby, football (soccer) is okay, but it lacks discipline and the top professionals are mostly poor role models for children.
As a player or spectator?
I like a lot of sports, but if you're talking about watching pro and college sports, it's the NFL for me. Fantasy football is a blast.
I've watched oh probably 200 high school girls basketball and soccer games in the last 5 years. That was exciting. Mostly due to my daughter playing in those games, and she is going to play soccer in college next year.
Basketball I played for 8 years. Next is track and field and cycling for me. I'm suuuper excited for the Olympics this year.
If we observe from various aspects like popularity, richness, number of competitions held in an year and so on, then definitely it is Soccer.
Even, citizens of non-soccer playing nations keep their eyes on matches telecasting on their televisions as well as they run behind regular updates too.
Basketball... when it's played by the Miami Heat, of course!
Soccer is probably the most popular sport on a global level, but I've come to appreciate ice hockey as the best sport in the world. Mainly because I have mad respect for the guys that can play it. It takes coordination, endurance, natural skill, and a high level of physical toughness that most sports can't touch.
I like Karate - for its philosophic nature.
Also I like dragon boating - for its spirit of teamwork and competition.

Is Baseball a dying sport?I think yes. World Series ratings are down by 65% in the last 25 years. Same goes for the All Star Game. Fox had its worst year in ratings for their game of the week in 2012 (averaged a 2 share for 24 games). Don't let the local TV deals or fantasy leagues fool you.

There are a lot of sports now but not all of them have time slots in ESPN. Of course Basketball and Football need their airtime, but I think some sports should have less airtime (like baseball and soccer) and some should have more airtime (like beach volleyball). What do you all...
