American Football Vs. Real Football

A quick deviation from my normal topic:

This is a huge debate in America. So many people believe that American football or even baseball are the best sports in the world. This is so close minded that it literally pisses me off. Real football is most dominant sport in the ENTIRE world. Yes, some countries actually do have other sports as their main sport, like the US clearly or even China. Ya, China's number one sport is table tennis. You just have to think about that one and say wtf?! And table tennis being a sport?? Ya, but that's a whole other issue. The thing that annoys me is when big headed people believe American football is the shit. I don't understand what is so great about the sport to be honest. Like don't get me wrong, like any other sport its exhilarating, but it does not even require half the skill as a sport like real football. Football, or soccer as its know here in the US, takes so much precision and skill and team work. That is one huge thing, teamwork. In American there is like barely any team work. You work yourself to get yourself open only. Then you get the ball and basically just muscle your way to the end zone. I'll give the sport that certain few positions like the quarterback and halfback do take skill and precision in finding those openings. Do not get me wrong by the way, I am not trying to say football is the best sport I am just trying to prove that American football is not as amazing as people believe it to be. Even this image proves that football (soccer) is the most dominant sport in the world:
Just look at all that green. I think that explains itself right there.
Now baseball is whole other issue as well. That sport can't even compare to football (soccer). It does take some skill to hit that fast, small ball but that is pretty much it. There is no teamwork or strategy involved. And people think that pitchers are all that cause they can throw a ball like 98 mph, but like one movie points out, "so what, they just means they can have a wank faster." - Green Street Hooligans.
Hopefully, in that little rant I proved my point haha.
