I can think of only three things more important than football in life: God, family and fatherland (for obvious reasons, so I won't explain).
What else could be more important?
Job? Yer havin a laugh... maybe if you are a Nobel-prize-winning scientist whose discovery can change the world, rock star or a top Hollywood actor. Maybe...
However, 99,9% of people in the world have menial, boring jobs with ZERO effect on the world at large (no matter if they are a street sweeper or a medium company CEO), from which they dream to retire as soon as possible.
Career? What does this word even mean? People won't remember exactly what you did or even care one year after you retire, and in 10 years it will be completely forgotten (unless you're a famous writer, scientist etc. - 0,001% of people). Those who sacrifice their time, health and family relations for their so-called careers are only moderately intelligent (to put it mildly).
Money? Nope. Most "needs" that people in the first world have these days are not genuine but rather invented or forced upon them. If one has enough to support his family on a decent level then struggling hard to get more and more is nonsensical. After all, we only live for 80 years or so, so what's the point of wasting your life to chase after money?
Health? Yeah, right! I would be infinitely more healthy if I wasn't a football supporter (imagine supporting Polish NT!). I would have healthier nerves, digestive system and would probably consume significantly less alcohol, so that would give me a chance to extend my lifespan from approx. 80 to approx 83-84, but I would miss on all the emotions and all the drama, all the love and elation and all the heartbreak and hate. Not worth it. :)
So, yeah, the below list...
1. God (that's a question of eternity, after all, not mere 80-90 years in this vale of tears).
2. Family (close friends are counted in this category as well)
3. Fatherland.
4. Football.
(for atheists it's 3Fs - Family, Fatherland, Football :))
