Canada. Ice hockey?

reply

Most successful (in terms of achievements) or most popular?

reply

reply

3. Judo

reply

What country?

reply

Israel

reply

Here in Australia I’d say it’s a three-way tie between cricket, rugby league and AFL (aka Australian Rules football).

reply

What about snooker? You've got a good player in Neil Robertson.

reply

It’s not something that you’d find broadcast in prime time here or you hear people talking about, no.

Tennis is another sport Aussies love though. The country is going through a collective mourning right now with the news of Ash Barty’s early retirement. Everyone here loves her.

reply

Arrr yes sad that.
I used to like watching lleyton Hewitt even tho he used to thrash our Tim Henman lol.

reply

Nadal is being awesome for many years now, he is doing a lot for this sport in Spain

reply

Yeah he's been awesome for 20 years just ment recently after injury.

Here in Dutchland it's football.

reply

I do not believe there is an NFL team in your country young Lady!

reply

They were not referring to NFL.

reply

But NFL IS Football

reply

In America.

Rest of the known world plays actual football. Not handegg.

reply

I don’t know what you’re talking about, the ‘known world’ starts in New York and crosses a vast land to a place called ‘California.’

Some old folk tell tales of an icy land to the North and some kind of desert far to the South but I call those sorts fibbers, maybe even liars depending on how many of them are around

Read a book Sir or Madam, Geography is important for all of us Americans to learn about

reply

NFL=Netherlands Football League🙂

reply

Stratego is talking about ⚽️.

You're thinking of 🏈.

reply

Ok, now you are all just making stuff up😤

reply

There is a country in Europe that football isn't the biggest sport?

reply

Do tell?

reply

Ukraine. Right now it’s dodgeball, but with bombs.





Too soon?

reply

What a stupid comment

reply

Bade taste, surely, but lighten up Francis, just a bit of dark humour for a Saturday morning. My sincere apologies for any offence caused.

reply

No offence to me, probably yes way to soon.

reply

Fair enough. Retracted!

I’ll go and sit quietly in the naughty corner 😕

reply

Haha I feel guilty now lol you seem like a good chap 👍

reply

All good bro 🤜🤛

reply

👌

reply

Ouch! You went there, lol.

reply

I know! So unlike me.

I’m actually quite traumatised by the whole situation. Maybe it’s a coping mechanism. Or maybe I’m just a dick!

I should probably delete it..

reply

No, do not delete.

reply

You're sick and I totally approve this dark humour.

CANADA: dragging samoanjoes to a KISS concert on the hottest day of the year with a crowd of thousands surrounding him

This sport can be brutal!

reply

What did I do for you to say such horrific things? KISS, heat and big crowds are the Holy Trinity of my downfall.

reply

USA: Battlebots

reply

Wow, I haven’t seen that show in years, I had no idea it was still running

Cool show!

reply

Is that what we call robot wars?

reply

Yes.

reply

Was good when it started now it's unwatchable strange how that happens.

reply

It’s probably 20 years since I last watched it.

reply

Football.
