Okay, two questions about American Football...

1. Why is it called "football" when most of the time you're carrying the ****ing ball in your hands???

2. How lazy AND arrogant do you have to be to invent a sport that not only steals the name of an existing sport, but then you tell the rest of the entire ****ing world that the sport they all play is called "soccer"?



****ing Yanks.

America thinks America came up with everything. The Earth doesn't revolve around the Sun, it revolves around America. Don't ask for the logic behind that, though. If you can't understand it, it's because you're not American so your educational systems suck.

Answer to question 1. Muthaphucka, because WE CAN..
Answer to question number 2. Muthaphucka, because we CAN AGAIN.
And if you got a problem with it, ask Larry Allen, or Orlando Jones.
Soccer players get tossed around like Nerf balls over here.
No disrespect or nothing...

It was used 100’s of years ago to separate a game you could use a ball and foot as opposed to the aristocratic games played on horseback, such as polo or jousting.

The term football pre dates what you know as Football/Soccer today.
