Dude, what the fuck is your problem? For one, that was an extremely racist comment(inyet you have an asian girl on your page?). To be stereotypical in return, any asian could own your ass in anything and is twice as smart as you. Second, why'd you have to call me a dumbass? That post wasn't directed towards you. It was directed towards this thread and how pointless it is.

She's my bitch. Lol.

I can sense there're tears in your eyes, so I'll just say sorry. Haha.

But thats not even the issue. Where the people live they call the sport their preferred name anyway so this thread is redundant.

But seriously, why can't people just refer to them both as soccer and gridiron so people know what the fuck they're talking about instead of insisting they both be called football?

Who the fuck knows?

What does soccer even mean?

soc·cer (s%u014Fk'%u0259r)
n. A game played on a rectangular field with net goals at either end in which two teams of 11 players each try to drive a ball into the other's goal by kicking, heading, or using any part of the body except the arms and hands. The goalie is the only player who may touch or move the ball with the arms or hands.

Bam.

...angry? Why do you think you're supposed to be 'angry'? You make me laugh.
This is why I hate these kinds of topics. It always causes off-topic disputes. It also makes me think you lied about your age, and I'm really disputing with someone under 15 years of age. and as for talking smack about my race, I really pity you for that. Those kinds of stereotypical things really say something about someone. It says to me that you're an asshole. So why don't you take your none existant dick and shove it up your ass.

Have a nice day. :D

The Americans called Soccer "Association Football" because it got mixed up with Football.

Later the end of "Association" which is "soc" was taken in, and the rest was taken out.

Then they added the rest to "soc" so in the end the name "Soccer" was born.
Why didn't you just do the smart thing and call it football?

and call American football handball or something.

Handball is already taken, plus you kick field goals and usually punt the ball on fourth down, unless, obviously, you go for it. Which isn't a great idea unless it's 4th and inches in the 4th quarter and the other team is leading by two field goals.


JaY11's sigs are awesome.
Epic thread.

I have actually wondered the same. But it's not a question that keeps me up at night, because the name doesn't matter. I like both sports about the same, anyway.

All I can say is that being in America all my life, the term 'football' sounds completely normal to me. But, I still wonder about it from time to time.


Oh, boy.
