    So we can’t have good social services like in Europe, or anything else that matters, but he adopts the kind of thing that makes Europeans fucking annoying to talk to.

        No for real tho on this particular spot, the british were the ones calling it association football which they shorthanded to soccer then they stuck that shit to america like a plasma grenade in halo, now could and should we change american football to something thays not called football? Yes. But the original sin lands with the english.

            That was pretty much located solely in mesoamerica - the more regionally accurate game would be what we now call Lacrosse, and is still quite popular. Also the most based sporting organization:

            The modern sport is governed by World Lacrosse and is the only international sport organization to recognize First Nations bands and Native American tribes as sovereign nations.

        They’re the ones that are pressed that a different sport is called football in two countries. (Not to mention Australia and Ireland.)
