Or

Which sport has the least knowledgeable but think they know everything fans when it comes to rules?

See Mark's post for options.

I think I read somewhere that polls are a waste of bandwidth.

Thanks for confirming.

Not only "fans" but the announcers both radio and TV don't understand the rules either and they are telling their listeners and viewers that we are wrong on a call......

Not that a magazine or sports show would ever do it
but it would be interesting to compare the fans perceptions to
the evaluations of the officials - and publish that information.

It would be interesting to see - I think that people would be surprised at how little they actually know - well no they wouldn't believe the published data.
