It would be so fucking funny if this is the last straw for Americans and they finally rise up.
When he dies im gonna throw a party. I hate parties. But I hate him more
He was denied an ownership deal to a football team a long time ago and he's just getting revenge. That's what tin pot dictators do. There's also another thing they usually do...
This is what happens when you only have a partial working brain and surround yourself with idiot cocksucking minions.
I can't wait until this fuckstain is dead, buried, and I'm taking a huge Taco Bell shit on his grave.
Wow. So glad this is what’s on what’s left of his mind. Not soaring prices or atrocities committed in his name. No, this is what matters.
Why don't you just call NFL foot ball, soccer? No one else wants to use the name soccer so it's sort of free.
I'm surprised he's not naming it Hitler Nazi Pedoball, for the exact same reason.
Well you see, Americans called the game with goalies "soccer" because that's what the British called it back when we were crown colonies, so when we invented the game with linebackers, we called that "football." then everyone else heard our word and decided to change the game with goalies' name to "football." So as usual, America continues to be correct, and the rest of the world is bound and determined to fuck it up.
We call it soccer because we already have a sport called competitive diving.
Okay, we'll rename American football to Cricket.
So as usual, America continues to be correct
Perhaps you've momentarily forgotten about USA's metric vs imperial nonsense
How many moon landings have been done in metric?
Contrary to urban myth, NASA did use the metric system for the Apollo Moon landings. SI units were used for arguably the most critical part of the missions

Which is, btw, true for most of academia/research/engineering.
Part of all of them? I guess?
I'm convinced that Trump is a big-time troll.
He'd be legit hilarious if he didn't have any power. Just old man racist mumblings like that one great uncle who comes to thanksgiving and says shit you'd never think of, like windmills make frogs gay and alabama should instead be called patriotstan.
You know, I've got one of those who doesn't have any power. His lack of hilariousness is at a maximum.
So thats why FIFA awarded him a peace price award that they made just for him and after this they asked him if he could force the NFL to use another name?🤣 brilliant.
I knew there'd be something. Bingo bongo.
Turning into the Mad King Trump. These absurd name changes and radical military actions like bombing boats and threatening Venezuela.
yeah, I think there's a non zero chance that he gets merc'd by one his own voters
cuz he's hurting them the most
Handegg is a name someone in Europe came up with a few years back
The fact that he parrots a good point that millions of other people have been saying for decades does not make him a smart man.
The fact that he does so at a podium in the most powerful position in the world does call into question his intelligence.
I'm on the side of who the fuck cares what another country decides to call a sport. It has no effect on you at all. The only ppl who seem to complain about it are Europeans who need a reason to seem superior to American so everyone will forget they've been fucking up the world 300 years longer than the US
Are you on team Ananas or team Pineapple though?
Aqui en Español, es la piña, no es la anana.
I'm on team forbidden butt plug.
it totally looks like a pinecone, and you can't tell from the outside if its delicious or not, so I'm team pineapple.

Lemon Toss?
Trump is just angry at the nfl. Has been since the 80s. His tiny feelings are hurt he doesn’t own a team. And then he tried that USFL thing. Which, oddly, failed. After the USFL decided to move to a calendar in direct competition with the nfl at trumps urging. It failed, because of the decisions of Trump. Go figure. But he is just a sad angry little man who’s feelings are hurt.
That would be hilarious. Please let him accomplish that and nothing else.
Calvin Ball. Since he's so prone to making up rules as he goes.
American Handegg League
I've been calling it Handegg for over a decade now. My Handegg-loving friends hate it.
I hate that his fucking followers will be more angry about this than the fact that he raped kids on Epstein's island.

Doofus.
Where are the Epstein files?
Gulf of Football
- America ball
- Freedom ball
- Big beautiful ball
This is one of the rare cases where I don't disagree with Trump.
But they could just call it what the rest of the world call their sport. "American Football".
It has their favorite word in it. America.
