Re: which sport takes the most skill
I voted for football if you'd take the time to look that up. I said football and I gave my reason. In terms of skill... name a position, in football, more difficult than quarterback or running back. Defense takes skill and can win some games, but it's the offense that makes the winning consistent. For those who say that receivers have all the skill, they may have catching and running down, but in essence they are just moving targets, and are nothing without a skilled QB to throw at their numbers. Running backs do all the real hard working.
As for basketball, there's not less skill to learn just because the teams are smaller... Typically, if there's more players on the team there's not as many skills to learn because the tasks are spread out among more players.
Basketball has evolved into one of the most highly technical games today, with little room for error. Think it's easy? Try consistently making a 20+ foot 3-point shot with hands in your face, or successfully dribbling a basketball through worlds most elite ballers for 40+ minutes, day-in and day-out.

Re: which sport takes the most skill
it isnt hard, to kick a soccer ball to someones feet, took me 2 weeks to learn soccer, minus the little tricks, which didnt take too long after the 2 weeks to learn.. its easier to get a soccer ball to someone than it is to throw a football to someone.

I'm not talking about 5-10 meters pass, but 30-50 meters pass. Football is not only know how to pass a ball, but you need creativity, vision of game, intelligence, you have to know to who you should pass and when you should pass, you always have to take the right decision by yourself, nobody tell you exactly what you should do. Doing tricks any retard can do, now try being productive in a football pitch, idiot.

Any American is a yank to a Brit.
I forgot about golf. The reason Tiger is so fantastic is because you never see young men playing (let alone playing above and beyond everyone else) because it is basically a lifetime commitment and only older men who have been doing it forever can do it that well and consistently.
As for passing to someone's feet and doing little tricks, it is a completely different story to do these things while being surrounded and at an all out run. Not to mention being knocked around and kicked in the legs. And little tricks are useless unless you can do them with perfection 99% of the time and have the desired effect. Since most people who play know the tricks, you have to think up new ones to use like Ronaldinho did with el elastico and know when to use them.
I'm not arguing that American football is an easy sport. Far from it, it's one of the few that I still don't know what the hell the official is talking about after watching it most of my life. And I sure as hell wouldn't think that rugby is like American football without pads. If they didn't wear all that gear there would be a shit ton of severe injuries like spinals and whatnot.

Golf is so fuckin' hard. I play on average 2 hours a night @ the driving range, chip around the backyard when I go out for a smoke, play 18 on sundays, and 9 on tuesday nights. I'm mediocre, but consistent with my shots. I still can't hit my driver straight, but I can drive the ball 250 yards and then some. Usually on the drive I'll do a nice left to right fade shot with my 5 wood for about 225 yards.
