I have never seen a single game ice hockey. Even if I see the most popular ice hockey player, I wouldn’t recognise them but even I have heard of one name - Wayne Gretzky.

Yeah me either for both say Ice Hockey and NFL. Still hear a few names - generally when hearing about greatest athletes in general or greatest players in x sport - and sports stuff in general tends to stick with me. Gretzky and the other dude who was like probably the next greatest but had issues - Lemon I think. NFL I’ve heard a lot more about relatively recently due to watching ESPN stuff on bball, usually those shows always have NFL **** too. Brady, Rogers, Rice, Brown, Taylor, Sanders (only cos one time I was searching to see if you were allowed to be on offense and defense in NFL - pro players are lazy)

Ofc have heard about the Pakistani squash players but wtf would actually watch a squash game. Or Walter Lindrum and billiards.

And ofc the most boring yet most ubiquitous sport - Soccer. Pele, Maradona, Ronaldo, Messi, Beckham (not for sporting accomplishments really)

I love Cricket more. It's the sport I less sucked at, I watched it atleast 10x more (like the length of a Test and Football match don't even compare) and definitely know more about it. But yeah, football is Greater.
