soccer in a nutshell

ahh yesh, bonry fraggot indeed

thumb up for god

Football is called so in the US because it's exactly a foot long.

soccer is an abbreviation for the organization that founded it in the US.

You really think the US founded "Soccer"?

I didn't say anything of the sort. I was incorrect in saying that the organization that brought it to the US named it so, but it does have the name "soccer" for a reason.

Read this source, for the full story: www.cs.utexas.edu/~pstone/why.html

but here's a copypaste from it: "English public schoolboys love to nickname things, then as much as now. The tendency is to add "er" to the end of many words. Rugby [Union] Football became "rugby", and then "rugger". Association Football was better know as "assoccer" and naturally evolved into "soccer" which is much easier for a schoolboy to say..."

It has a reason.

The actual formation of NFL dates after the term "Football" was used instead of the word "Soccer" so that shite is redundant.

Well, us Americans can't stop using the word "soccer." It's all part of our master plan!

Neither is Tennis, Bmagical fairy princesston, Rugby, Hockey and a lot of other sports...

And it won't allow me to put bad min ton

*whatever the fuck they want to call it*

glorious non-american masterrace
