@EnvisionSaintJohn, is that satire? Or are you genuinely that horny to copy Euro-style soccer?

I don't feel like arguing everything you said point by point, but I'll just make two points that I'm sure you already know.

1. The term soccer was invented by the British, in Britain.

2. As you were so close to pointing out, "football" ALWAYS means "the locally dominant form of football". In NA that means gridiron football, in Britain that means soccer, in New Zealand "footy" means rugby, and in Aus "footy" means either rugby league or Aussie rules, again depending where you are as it's regional.
