BDuncan Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 What 4 year sporting event do you find more compelling and interesting : the (summer or winter) Olympics, or the FIFA Soccer World Cup and please elaborate on your reason/s why.

Martyn Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 The World Cup for me. More people find the World Cup interesting because it is football, and they prefer that to Athletics and other stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticktron Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 World Cup. Summer Olympics blows, at least Winter Olympics has hockey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazysah Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 World Cup with Summer Olympics very close in second! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-Flex Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 I really don't like either. World Cup bores me, and the Olympics have so many events that aren't sports, from diving to figure skating. However, I enjoyed watching beach volleyball and ice hockey, so I'd go with the Olympics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H5N Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 World Cup. Always intense. Soccer crowds are the best. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbluepride35 Posted January 22, 2006 Share Posted January 22, 2006 World Cup. The passion of fans who follow the World Cup is so much stronger than those who follow the Olympics whole-heartedly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 I'm going to say Olympics also, mostly because there just isn't a huge following for soccer here in the United States like there is for it in the rest of the world, where it is very appropriately called "football". I'm going to make a prediction now. Most people who post in this thread who aren't from the United States are going to say World Cup, while most Americans are going to say Olympics. Not a stereotype or a criticism or insult in any sense. Just an observation I've made. Soccer/"football" just isn't big in the United States, while American football isn't very big in most other parts of the world and is the single biggest one-day sporting event in the United States (Super Bowl).

sn00pie Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 World Cup, and usually the gold medal game of hockey in the Olympics. Go Brazil! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nexus Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 I would say the Olympics, just because there are multiple events to view not just one (soccer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
