Baseball vs soccer (football)
There are two main kinds of sports IMO, dynamic action and continuous action.
American Football and baseball fit into dynamic action, where one pre strategized play triggers a series of quick reactions, then its over, there is a pause until the next play.
Its the absolute test of order vs chaos theory in sports.
Basketball and soccer (football) are continuous action and in a period of time there are dynamic reactions but they occur in the flow of continuous action. it is continuous chaos with spikes of order.
So you have preplanned strategy with dynamic action sports vs. spontaneous strategy with continuous action sports.
I for one like watching football and american football, i do not like to watch baseball or basketball. baseball only if i am there at the game.
It would seem that americans like their dynamic action sports and the rest of the world continuous action sports.
