Instruction :
Tell me which one of these is different than others - Football, Hockey, Basketball, Baseball, Cricket, Lacrosse.

Response:
All of these are popular sports. Depending on the context, these can be grouped differently.

In terms of popular American sports, Cricket is the odd one out. It's popularity is on the rise in USA, but it doesn't enjoy the same stature as other sports in this group.

In terms of international popularity, Lacrosse might be different than others. Although 68+ countries compete in Lacrosse, it's popularity is lower than the other sports in terms of viewership and following in total number of people.

(Ice) Hockey uses a rubber puck while other sports on the list use some form of a ball.
