Everything else aside, we do not call soccer football. Instead, ‘football’ is what we call the worst and most boring and most physically injurious sport in the entire world, known to you as American Football.

Please don’t come here only to get shot downtown trying to watch a sport we don’t care about over here.

I know this topic has passed, but I didn’t have a social media account back then.

    Legitimately it took DECADES after things like baseball and football and soccer were televised to figure out how to make golf watchable on broadcast, and the major tourneys basically had to overhaul large parts of their rules to make it work.
