It's obvious for us Europeans and also South Americans & Africans, but not for everyone around the world.

I agree, but I'm curious to see the % who backs soccer, and % who backs padded rugby, and the remaining who back the latter less famous versions..

When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won.
There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall.
Think of it--always Mahatma Gandhi

No they aren't (real football which Spain are latest world champions isn't at least...when it's good teams playing at least).

I never use the word soccer otherwise, but for such polls, it's not obvious for everyone that when I say "football", I mean association football played by two teams of eleven players who use their feet to shoot a ball..

Speaking of whom, I don't think there are five (let alone one) "American Football League" players who are as famous (worldwide) as
- Pelé
Diego Maradonna
David Beckham
Cristiano Ronaldo
Lionel Messi
