    I voted other for Volleyball

    I coach it and played on a team that went to the state quarterfinals three years in a row. (though we didn't win) I don't enjoy watching it as much as basketball, but I do enjoy playing it just as much.

    1) Basketball... all you need is a ball and a hoop.

    2) Football... all you need is a ball and a buddy.

    3) Baseball... a ball, a bat, a glove and a few buddies.


    Talking bare minimums here, but those are my top three... so I voted football, naturally.

    lol, swimming, handball. I'll take a wild guess and say you're not from the States.

    As for me, tennis is my favorite sport to watch.

    It's a popular sport in M'sia and Thailand.

    I tried before as a kid and it's quite painful to play as takraw is made of rattan / cane.

    Other than basketball, I like badminton, especially doubles. It's fast-paced, deceptive, and entertaining at the same time.

    Some nice rally:

    Volleyball is fun to watch too.

    Lol 23 voted soccer (including me :cool: ) but no one posted...

    Soccer
    ...
    Basketball
    ...
    Tennis

    Soccer is just so much fun to watch (NO NOT MLS ****), fast attacking fiesty football is like the NBA 4th quarter without the timeouts.

    I posted sports that came up to me, since handball is very popular in Europe I put It there, as for tennis or racing sports you have other option, I couldn't come up with that.

    Soccer is probably my second favorite sport after basketball. Baseball bores me, and football is only fun to play. I don't watch it unless it's the Super Bowl or some college games. Volleyball is fun to play at parties.
