Worst football league (viewer entertainment wise)
I would have to say the argentinian league. It is dire Five shows a game, then an argentinian highlight show every thursday, and ive never seen such awful football.
In contrast, despite what you may have heard about it, MLS is actually pretty entertaining.
Opinions?

[predictable] Scottish [/predictable]
I havent seen much of the MLS but i'ld agree that it seems to be a decent league. The very very little amount of Argentinian and Brazilian footy i get to see also seems to be entertaining. I guess i'ld go with the French league being the worst, simply because its French.

The scottish is incredibly entertaining, in an inverse sort of way. Me and my brother have a good laugh every week at the ridiculous scrappy goals in the non old firm games. Its a rarity when theres a goal of any quality.

I generally find German league games very boring to look at. RTL broadcasts live matches of both the English and German league on Dutch television. I often watch when English football is on, but I can't seem to refrain from zapping when German football is on.

The Australian league. By a long way. I'm used to the Dutch league which isn't terribly good, but the competition here is just pathetic.

the dutch league seems ok to me, from an outsiders point of view. Saying that, i get a game every week, no highlights of others etc, abnd the game inevitably involves one of the big 3

Every league has its downsides, just depends on which one irritates you the most.
The Germans like to play football at a ridiculously slow (but apparently effecient to ze coping of ze body over ze period of 90 mins). Although you don't need to be quick to pick the ball out of the net 5 times eh.
The Italians (Mostly) are basically women. They run in on goal, looking for one of the defence to stick out a leg, then throw them selves to the ground whilst their team mates extend their arms into the air. Exibhit A, Fancesco Totti.
The Scottish. Ok, the only games they ever show live on Tv are Celtic - Rangers which is usually quite entertaining as they are pretty even teams although theyre not all greats of the game they never produce a dire 0-0'er.
The French - a.k.a. The Senegal National Team. Usually entertaingin whenever you see a game on eurosport, but teams are mostly monkeh ----.
ThAnd don't get me started on the spanish.
But my vote has to go to the Italians.
