Ok, first, let's all grow up. The days of "my dad is better than yours" is all gone, at least I hope to think so; unless there are too many juveniles lurking in the Sajha.

You can't compare one game to another, there's no "better" game, because "better" is subjective. How do you quantify better? More action? More impacts? More goals? You can only gauge games by popularity and soccer is the most popular sports in the world, period.

Football is good in its place. It's like a game of chess where each piece is alive and muscular. Soccer, well its like a religion, if you don't believe me- just watch John Oliver's piece on soccer. Like somebody said, "They say soccer is their life. I laugh at them. It's much more than that."

For those saying NFL has obese people, you probably don't follow the game. You see a couple of Offensive linemen and you think that's the typical size of NFL player. Take a look at WR or RBs, they are one of the leanest, quickest human being in the world, only next to running. Those who think soccer is a woman's game; well, you don't understand soccer. What's excitement for you? A barrage of goals? Well, I find it equally entertaining to watch a synchronized sequence of passes and dribbling. As for diving, how is that a woman thing? Like it or not, it's part of the strategy. Michael Jordan became the best NBA player ever not just because of his physical moves but also his psychological maneuvers. Diving, you can compare that to acting. I hate diving, I think soccer should do something to curb this practice, but I won't say it makes the game a woman's sport. These are not the players who are in the field with helmet despite the fact that they don't aren't driving any motor bikes. With your definition, if soccer is for women, chess would be for 2 years old.

I like soccer and football both. Soccer a tad better because I followed it since I was a kid and I still play this game. But I won't take anything away from football either.
