DreAming in DigITal Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 Hands down the Olympics are more exciting...Most competitors only get one shot (maybe two) in their lives and it only happens once every 4 years. There is a wider variety and higher intensity in most sports.

KitCh Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 IMO the Football World Cup wins hands down. I seriously can't wait for the World Cup to arrive. It's the best thing that happens every four years. Don't get me wrong the Olympics is cool, but no where near as cool as the Football World Cup! :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/423388-whats-more-interestingthe-olympics-or-world-cup/page/2/#findComment-587108041 Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDog Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 In the world cup lots of teams kick a ball around - in the olympics, lots of talented people do all sorts of amazing things... yeah, olympics gets my vote...

machorro Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 Hawkeye said: 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). yeah that's right, and possibly most of the ones that are going to answer World Cup are either South Americans, and Europeans :p :yes: acedriver said: World Cup Forza Italia! Amen! my brother! :D for me is the World Cup, I like the olympics and all, but the there is nothing like the World Cup the excitement, the passion everything, World Cup simply rocks! :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/423388-whats-more-interestingthe-olympics-or-world-cup/page/2/#findComment-587108135 Share on other sites More sharing options...

boogerjones Posted January 26, 2006 Share Posted January 26, 2006 :blink: The Olympics. :blink: Without question. There are more personalities, more dramatic successes and failures, and more variety in general. Soccer is too slow to be "interesting." The only points that soccer scores are the drunken riots.

RebelFX Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 FIFA Soccer WC since I don't like any other discipline appart from football... errr soccer. I know soccer is still considered an olympic discipline, yet the number of teams in the Olympics are just a few to consider it too much exciting.

russ0943 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 can we add the X-Games in there as an option???? And I agree, the olympics is kinda boring. Winter is better than summer though.
