I pity your ignorance and do not approve of your aggressiveness.
The UK, and the rest of the world, call it "football". The Americans, and the Americans ONLY, call it "soccer".
Now this is my opinion but i think the word "football" is better associated with what the UK and rest of the world define football as. American football is tackling, throwing, running and hardly any kicking. So it doesnt deserve the term "football". The Barclays English Premier League DOES, however.
totally agreed
fave team: Benfica
fave player:Simao
Chingy, Austalians and the Irish call it soccer
So? Australia, America, and Ireland.
WOW! 3 countries!!
But its globally recognized as football.
And the reason why the Irish call it soccer is because they have gaelic football, which is a combo of normal football and rugby.
