Whatever kind of European version of football you have is totally different from real football. The thing about being a lineman is you have to be able to move your big body around not just stand around doing nothing. For instance, Warren Sapp was the fastest person on his team in college (he played for Miami.)
And come one, you know nothing about football..

Lol that one was good, i give you points for that one! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]And come one, you know nothing about football..
But REAL football is the one we play in Europe, it's older and bigger.. It's something every country, poor and rich, enjoys.. Was created in England, before the US even existed! =)
It has spread over the whole world, it's not a country that hasn't a national football team! =)
Even you Americans have one! ;P
Why is American football called football anyway? From what I have seen they handle the ball with their hands mostly and use their feet to run, except for when their doing a field goal or what it's called. Soccer is the real football if you go by the name. It should be called american rugby or something.
I watch the English Premier League (soccer), and have no clue about American football and how it's played. But soccer has to be the most popular game in the world. The World Cup is the most televised sports programme shown in almost every country with tv coverage.
Anyway, the guy has mad skills with a ball, but that doesn't mean he can score. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

"soccer" is crap in the US. Highly made fun of by most people / Athletes. You run around kicking a ball... sure you have to be fast.. and be able to kick a ball through someones legs.. but its still a panzy sport with little to no contact. If i wanna just watch someone kick something around ill play kick the can ( and possibly have more fun doing it ) It's a wonder football players make 10x the money that soccer players do.. oh not to mention TV ratings are 10000 times greater for football than soccer.

That's america only, if you believe there are little to no contact in soccer you're delusional. Why don't you go ahead and call basketball pansy sport since there are little to no contact in basketball to. American footballers strap on all that fucking protection gear like pussies and think they are tough, hell check out rugby players, those are real men, dealing with similar stuff like american footballers without any gear at all, exept for a headgear.Originally posted by: Krbadass

In many other countries American football is just a backdoor sport no one cares about. Worldwide, soccer is way bigger and soccer players makes alot of money to, i wouldn't be suprised if the star players in soccer gets more money than the star players in american football.
Football > American Football
I've always been confused as to why the name was changed to "Soccer". Espcecially since, as has been mentioned, American Football has almost nothing to do with the feet.
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

Football brings in more money to the world then any other sport.
it's a pitty you don't need to be good at these things. for real soccer... -.-
Are you talking about money from tickets, pay per view, merchandise and so on, or player salarys? If you are talking about player salarys, do you mean per person or total?Originally posted by: Krbadass

Not sure where the name come from, I guess since it's one of the most important aspects of the game they decided to name it 'football.' By the way there's no such thing as 'real football' or 'fake football,' thats ignorance.

If I'm not retarded I remember it was you SK who mentioned "REAL football"!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
Yeah, because you were saying you knew someone who played American football, I always refer to soccer as soccer, not fake football or anything.

soccer isn't a real english word (At least that what I learnt) and english comes from England.. That you must agree upon [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
Soccer is just american-english slang..
There's American English, so for us soccer is a real word. And English comes from Eastern Europe or some shit but I'm not getting into all that.

I have a question SK in school and at the college and Uni.. Do you have American-english courses or english courses?
We have English courses where we learn AMERICAN English seeing as we live in AMERICA. We spell armour armor, colour color, and we call soccer soccer.Originally posted by: isso

EDIT: Guys stop with your retarted Ultra-Nationalism, flaming is bad!
I wll now end this argument by saying that all kinds of football, including european, american, african & north polian (is that even a word?) blows.
Becuase americans have a need to be original. They wanted their own kind of football which has close to nothing to do with feet so they renamed real football somehthing random that nobody would remember.
