@King Raccoon 77 , I can't quote your update from my message, but I was going to respond, that they are both the same thing -- they both use a ball. :p

O.k. Update -- here's why I am STILL confused. If you look at the headline in the news link below, it says soccer . . .

@King Raccoon 77 Just because you changed it to football, doesn't make it football. To use the old "Laugh In" joke.... It may be foot ball to you, but it is Soc cer to me!

What do you expect from someone that is constantly locked in a cage and insists on calling soccer, football when it is actually Futball. The most popular sport on that continent. How can that be possible when there is no blood shed, head trauma, spinal cord injuries or death. (Other than the fans) Look now they are running toward the goal, wait now they are running toward the other end of the field, oh, wait now they are running back the other direction... rinse and repeat. ;)😴

ABC is a merican news outlet so they will wrongly call it soccer.

It's football . Doesn't matter what excuses you make for your made up version of English. We invented the game so we get to name it.

I'm not sure I'd want to take credit for inventing a game that consists mostly of running back and forth from one end of the field to the other kicking a ball back and forth. Occasionally actually being able to get it in an enormous net. Face it, it is almost exactly the way a kitten entertains itself.

However, to be honest here, I am not a fan of either soccer (Fotball) or our Football). I find both of them tediously boring. I do realize that fans of both love it, just don't know why.
