American forward-pass Rugby

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 1 points 48 minutes ago (1 children)

I feel like that doesn't resolve the problem that American Football has.

[–] gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works 2 points 14 minutes ago

This is America - we don’t solve problems, we just ignore them

[–] chemicalprophet@slrpnk.net 12 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I’ve been calling it ‘stupid’ for some time and never really get any cogent pushback. Sports!

[–] kieron115@startrek.website 5 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

National Stupid Football League, or NSFL for short!

[–] redlemace@lemmy.world 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

National Stupid Football League,

May I suggest "National Stupid Football Workgroup" ? Just because the short-hand .......

[–] kieron115@startrek.website 2 points 1 hour ago

NSFL sometimes stands for "not safe for life" but either is fine with me.

[–] Benchamoneh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Finally something we can agree on.

NFL FootBall can be renamed to HandEgg.

[–] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 3 points 47 minutes ago (1 children)

National Handegg League, or the NHL!

Wait...

[–] Benchamoneh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 23 minutes ago

It's OK we can just rename hockey to IceStick or something

[–] cryptix@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (3 children)

Game where you don't kick the ball by foot, needs to be called football? It should be hand ball IMO.

[–] rami@ani.social 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Well technically there's is one situation in which someone may kick the ball by foot.

[–] tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 3 points 58 minutes ago

Several situations. As nate bargatzi said in thar SNL skit, "There's a little kicking."

American rugby-lite

[–] Mediocre_Bard@lemmy.world 12 points 6 hours ago (3 children)

So he had a meeting with a soccer player then?

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 hours ago

They gave him a peace prize. The FIFA Peace Prize smh

Maybe we should have some people from SI give him something, so that the US will ditch those stupid units. He's got a peace prize and a jet, so something else... How about a gold helicopter with AI in it? We could have the tail rotor fitted with LEDs some it'll spell out TRUMP when flying. If we better make it good enough, maybe he'll have ICE pickup anybody using feet or fahrenheit.

Football player

[–] spirinolas@lemmy.world 9 points 5 hours ago

Concussion-ball has a nice ring to it.

[–] HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.world 5 points 5 hours ago

"NFL stuff" works

I can't remember the last time I watched NFL stuff

Just call it "Handegg"

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 20 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Just call what the NFL plays soccer. Then use football for the actual game with ⚽

[–] Natanael@infosec.pub 14 points 7 hours ago

Ah yes maximum chaos

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 hours ago

Oh yeah think of all the "soccer? I barely knew 'er" jokes we could make

[–] Benchamoneh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 hours ago

Finally something we can agree on.

NFL FootBall can be renamed to HandEgg.

[–] melsaskca@lemmy.ca 16 points 8 hours ago

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!

[–] nexguy@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago

Let me guess, the "Foot Force"

[–] MilitantAtheist@lemmy.world 34 points 10 hours ago (5 children)

[–] skisnow@lemmy.ca 14 points 7 hours ago

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.

[–] thethunderwolf@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Let me interject for a moment

what you're referring to as football is in fact soccer/football, or as i have recently been calling it, soccer + football

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Football is literally just whatever game is the most popular locally that involves scoring by foot.

[–] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

To most of the world football is what is refered to as soccer. Rugby and american football are their own seperate thing as far as I am concerned

[–] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

As far as you're concerned just not the people who made the sport or the leagues that govern them.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 3 points 6 hours ago

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.
