    yeah, the NFL is the same exact way. every game starts with a foot kicking a ball, therefore it is football

    soccer is short for association football, englanders created it, therefore it is soccer

      It’s not a sphere, therefore it’s not a ball. It’s shaped like more like an egg.

      You kick it once with your foot, then you carry it with your hand.

      It’s not football, its HANDEGG.

        we’ll call it handegg for a few years then switch back to football once europeans unanimously call it handegg, then we’ll make fun of them for it
