How many ppl here that footballs a waste of time and money?

I voted no, because 'the Beautiful game' as its so called is the most favoured game in the world and if you haven’t been to a football game you know what I mean, its the atmosphere, the roar of the crowd and seeing your team get the winning goal its one of the best feelings ever, IMHO.

NO's are leading 4 to nil - why bother to have a poll at all - really it looks to be a waste of time :D

why would you think that ? You can't play the game yourself ? Or your favourite team played a lousy season ?

There are millions spent on football, hundreds of thousands of man-hours devoted to it, and all for the sake of 90 minutes of 22 grown men fighting (sometimes literaly) over an inflated pig bladder - except nowadays even the ball costs far too much. And who can honestly tell me that beckham isnt paid far too much? Or that televised football is entertaining?

And yes, I cant play football worth a damn.

Football is the best thing we have right now to blood sport, it's rediculouse in my opinoin, frankly, I think that we should do away with the whole football concept and make a tournament where people are forced to kill eachother or be killed... It could even be made a political type of game, like the olympics, but with semi-automatic weapons and heavy firearms... Or we could make our prisoners run for their lives for our entertainment like in "The running man" yes that would be fun...

:D But football? neeaah, that games for pig-skin catchin sissies...

Ha! I lettered in football in high school, and have a bum knee to show for it. It's a waste of time, but so is playing computer games.
