the three top sports known

[Cixso]

I think it's fact it's Football, then basketball.

Football is 100% number 1, it's also the most financial side of sporting industry, then it's the American football for the financial affairs, but it isn;'t that popular here etc in Europe/asia.

Anybody find a source with the top 10 sports word wide? I looked but can't find.

I prefer "Another site"'s view haha, exactly the same as mine :8 But that's a surprisingly close figure between "Soccer" and Cricket in the first one.

American football: The only game where you don't use your feet or a ball and still call it football.

A better questoin would have been "the best three top sports known worldwide" as it differs between countries so this would only cause arguements

me (comming from USA) prefferably like weight lifting and basketball, don't think much of soccer, but everyones entitled to their own opinion

Sarith, India is HUGE. I bet they make up a helluva lot of numbers for Cricket.
