I am Italian. We won the world cup. We are the best. I am a good goalkeeper.

It's called soccer! It's confusing enough trying to remember the four real types of football without you trying to shove in a 5th one.

We won, Totti's goal from rigor... I'm sorry... :happy:

My point exactly!

In my opinion to be classifeid as football is it has to use a 3D-ovalish ball.

In my opinion........ Oh, I just don't care.

But association football is the eldest modern one. It directly begot rugby which directly begot American football. It has been played they way it is now since 1863 and its earliest known form was the Chinese game of Cuju, back in the second and third centuries BC.

And when the question is put to me whether a game in which a ball is primarily carried from A to B or a game in which a ball is primarily kicked should be called football... the only sensible option is the latter.

Very elegantly put, Bullet Magnet. I've never actually heard anyone use the word 'begot' in a sentence.
I mean, if we can accept(ish(well, not really(but we can live with it))) that a game in which you carry the ball is called football, then at least accept that the kicky-ball game is also called football.

Case Closed

Yeah, used to play, I still go for Australia, and sometimes England, but my bro goes for Man United, Newcastle and Portsmith.
