world cup thread

[Treesh]

Hi,

EDIT: How are you measuring it as 'biggest'?

Entirely subjectively. From what I know, it is the largest, i.e. the most participants and the largest audience.

Well, as far as I can see, there are more professional baseball teams in the American and National Leagues combined then there are teams in the World Cup. NASCAR brings in a lot more people than the World Cup. Now, you could argue that the World Cup teams represent all the world's soccer teams. You could argue that car racing is not a sport. Whatever. But I still don't see 'biggest'.

For what it's worth, a couple of quick searches brings up Wiki answers and World's Biggest. Of course, I'm not guaranteeing the veracity, but it seems from those and other online sources anyway that soccer is the consensus.
