I think that the skill argument comes down to semantics and that Illfavor is right. Skill does not equal flair. It takes skill to become the best in the world at any competitive field.
It's perfectly valid to feel that football isn't the best sport in the world. But what makes it the greatest is that it requires very little equipment. There's no doubt it has flaws, some quite horrible ones, but it is the only worldwide athletic team sport. So if you want to think that icerink is a better sport, feel free. If want to think that the existence of draws makes football unexciting (lolol), feel free. But realise your arguments will never be anything other than weak hypotheticals in a world that, for once, is too busy having a great time to give a flying fuck about what the Americans have to say.
