Game where you don't kick the ball by foot, needs to be called football? It should be hand ball IMO.
Concussion-ball has a nice ring to it.
"NFL stuff" works
I can't remember the last time I watched NFL stuff
Just call it "Handegg"
Soccer isn't the only football it's in a group of games originally called football which includes rugby. Technically to the rest of the world NFL style football is gridiron football.
Let me guess, the "Foot Force"
Just call what the NFL plays soccer. Then use football for the actual game with ⚽
Ah yes maximum chaos
Oh yeah think of all the "soccer? I barely knew 'er" jokes we could make
The ball is oval. They just need to restrict the age of players to 13-19 years old then they could call it "Ovalteen". That's gold Gerry! That's gold!
Lemme guess: He wants to call it Trumpball, right?
He's acting like he's just spit balling here, but we all know that after a bit of discussion in the media, it will "suddenly" occur to him on camera, that a good name might be Trumpball. Mike Johnson will immediately begin legislation, Vance will clutch his pearls at any resistance to what is obviously the only reasonable name, Bondi & Patel will threaten in investigate anyone who doesn't go along, and Schmuck Schumer will make a weak speech that nobody will ever hear because the media won't care what he has to say, because he never says anything important.
Gets a bribe from fifa, "we need to change the name of this sportsing"
For a moment I thought he was having a rare moment of clarity, but no, he was having a common moment of corruption
Trump has always been hurt that he couldn't buy a sports team. He tried to buy the Buffalo Bills years ago but it failed.
And the reason he couldn't have a team? Because all the other rich owners, the guys whose club he so desperately wants to be a part of, hate his guts, and want nothing to do with him, so they've iced him out of pro team ownership for DECADES.
His face looks ai
Handegg.
Handeggballl.
You have to add "ball" so that we know it is a game played with a ball.
I hate this dude so much can nature take its course already….
Thing in languages quite often don’t make much sense, but trying to correct them makes even less sense.
Yankee rules football like afl 😝
