I think they could be split into different areas and I would vote for

Best team

Football, not soccccaaarrreeeerrrr my american friends

Best ball

Rugby, because they are just a bunch if "hard nuts" and everyone loves Johnny (and not talking about Condoms here..... ; )

Best solo

Rock climbing, completely fearless folks

Best Racket

Squash / Tennis, not sure, so have to do a Lemar (thats 50 / 50 as in the song)

Best Bat

Cricket baby, espcially the 20 / 20 game

Best all over

Cricket, any India V Pakistan game

Best sport for cheats

Tour De France - cycling... ; )...and you know it

Who cares what others call it. Do you not understand the term "soccer"? Would you tell a German that he's wrong when he calls it Fussball?

In Ireland, we have our own indigenous Football, so we call soccer soccer and Gaelic Football football.

In German Football is Fussball, in English it is Football.

And in Ireland, it is soccer, the gaelic is "sacar".

Telling an Irish man that he is wrong to call soccer soccer is like telling a German that calling it Fussball is wrong. "IT'S FOOTBALL!"

It is strange. Like, I'm sure you wouldn't be upset if I referred to your sport as "stickball".
