Chess is like Football

Every one know that chess is a game of war. For many peoples Football is also game of war. That is because in chess we attack defend and finish the opponent. In football we attack and defend also. It is 16 vs 16 in chess and 11 vs 11 in football. In my point of view queen lost in chess means 10 man down against 11man in football. Chess is a tactical game and football is a technique game. In both sports we use mind to beat opponent. Both are Mind Games for me. I love both of them. so guys what you want to say? are you agree with me??

Not really, football is predominately a game won by physical prowess.

Chess is like football/soccer with lots of red cards.

Try telling that to Barcelona.

By physical prowess, I do not just mean strength. I also mean physical qualities such as speed, endurance, balance, and co-ordination.

chess is mostly a snoozefest, played by wimps acting the toughguy on the webbyweb.

Football is just as exiting as chess.Tomorrow is the Champions League  final.Athletico Madrid versus Real Madrid.That is a must see,

 

I hope  Athletico will win.

Argh...

You really want other teams to start copying their style of play? You want football to turn into that?

Its going to be the most boring final ever. I wonder what the odds are on 0-0 as the half time score...

You get the blues in chess and Carlton (the Blues) will have them on Sunday when Geelong (the mighty CATS) give them a thumping in Aussie Rules footy.

 Let s see who wins

I like the athletico style of playing.

 

Besides Athletico is a workers team and Real is for the upper class.

 

3-1 Athletico

I'm not sure which is better, or whether their alike, but I'm pretty sure the Magnus vs Sergey match is a lot better than CL final. :p
A madrid derby in final seems cheap, sorry to all of their fans in this forum.

You must be a boring person then, because you are here. Why do people come to Chess.com to bash chess? Go outside, get some sun.

Chess is more like basketball in terms of strategy. We can move where we choose when we choose. Football/
Soccer would be better without the offside rule. Imagine chess or basketball where you could only attack with the offside rule.
