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

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...

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.
