I dont include soccer due to the "dead"time of a player moving with the ball over the field.
Uh-huh. Do you speak from experience?

There is no 'dead' time on a soccer pitch. 22 players keep things plenty 'live' at all times I can assure you.

BBodB -

I agree with you. Good soccer teams don't dribble the ball very much, they pass the ball (kinda like in basketball) - across the field and sometimes back, but always with the goal of moving the ball forward. A LOT OF ACTIVITY, as you point out. Goals are scored by opening up the field, crossing the ball etc. Very few goals scored as a result of dribbling.......
