Football, just because it's such a high impact sport.

Soccer, especially at professional levels where slide tackling is common. A person who accidentally gets hit during a slide tackle can very easily wrench their knee. Plus the quick changes of direction while running put a lot of strain on the knees.

Running can cause knee injuries if the runner is over training or is using an old or poorly fitting pair of sneakers. The repetitive stress can cause damage to the joints.

In Australian rules football, knee injuries are among the most common, especially in ruck contests, involving the crashing of two knees during the leap. These injuries forced new rule changes for the 2005 season.
