What subject is most guilty of turning ugly when people try to discuss it?
Top of my list is former couples.
When two people break up I stay out of it. When someone badmouths a former partner I just nod along and pretend to agree. And I certainly don't try to defend the other one in any way. There is two sides to every story like that but the former couple certainly don't wanna hear it.
And I don't watch soccer but I have a feeling things can turn real bad if fans of opposing teams start to go at it.
(Reminder: I don't want this deleted so DO NOT bring up the two that are already banned from here.)

There is a reason why they say to never talk about religion or politics at the dinner table.

Football/soccer can be a bad subject, but only if you bring it up to the wrong people, and/or in the wrong way.
A joke about a team, a player or a result shouldn't normally lead to heated arguments, at least among reasonable grown men.
However, besides politics and religion, sports and music are probably the topics that provide the bigger chance of causing problems. And that's quite sad.
In general, any subject that has "fanboys" can quickly turn into a verbal fight.

They sort of transcend the football arguements.

Football can get real ugly real fast. There's a reason why football fans need to be kept seperated at games.

I remember subjects on here a while back where a Football International(or Soccer) fan would insult Football Americana and vice versa. These went about 5 pages before the mods had to lock them because of the flaming
