bros na d same thing only say Americans call it soccer

Nice one, and why is everyone calling it soccer, it's called Football. Why do we have to change the name because of America. FOOTBALL

shymexx: Spot on Ann Coulter.

Yanks are mostly ignorant. What do you expect from people who play world series and world championships by themselves? - isn't that lunacy?

NBA champions = world champions to yanks.
NFL superbowl champions = world champions to yanks.
MLB champions = world champions to yanks. etc

^^^I still don't know how you can claim "world champions" when all the teams competing are within the same country...psychotic people. So I'm not surprised some of them are mad at football, to be honest.

She's a true American. Yanks are generally ignorant and proud of it.

What Americans call ‘football‘ is actually rugby (american football), which, ironically, is mostly played with the hands.

Soccer is the ‘normal‘ football you know, like the one currently going on at the world cup.
Hope that helped?

The Americans call it Soccer cos they have their own type of football where the use of hand is allowed. The sport was named "American football"

Yanks and their biased mindset sha, nice reponse from Hutchison to that wh.ore called Ann Coulter.

Dhelake: Nice Response, The lady who wrote the first Article was obviously ignorant

She's also very bitter, cynical, divisive and perpetually callous.

I wonder what made her that way. I shudder with pity for her when I read some of her articles.

henryobinna: bro why you get opportunity to dey write all these shi.t back to back na because Nairaland never recover fully.

U are right. I wish Nairaland quick recovery!

who is she?

milehigh06:

Simple. An Individual that is proudly ignorant. An average American wouldn't be able to locate South Africa or Nigeria on the world map even if their lives depend on it.

richardoz: U are right. I wish Nairaland quick recovery!

yep, me too

Actually what the yanks called football is a much modified game of rugby that was imported to the american continent from England back in the day (19 century).

Soccer is a term the yanks 'borrowed' from the English FA's As'soc'iation to describe the sports you play only with your legs cuz the original term 'football' had already been taken by their own version of rugby.

Here in South Africa, we tend to call it soccer as well for the same reasons more or less. The Springboks (our national Rugby team) are very good and have made the game of Rugby so popular that citizens often refer to it as simply football.

Americans are generaly afraid of anything they don't understand or control.

Andyblaze: I am the god of soccer

Caracta: In your house?

not even his house, for his bedroom, because even his brother sabi football pass am sef.

Ray McBlue: Simple. An Individual that is proudly ignorant. An average American wouldn't be able to locate South Africa or Nigeria on the world map even if their lives depend on it.

how does that information help them tell me? Do you read up the news about Chad or Niger republic?? No, and so the same way the average yanks don't give two about the countries you mentioned.

These Americans! Nobody is begging you to watch football. If you don't wanna play...leave it. Btw you guys should call it football not "soccer" you could call your "football" egghand.

tanks for sparing some of ur time and energy to reply.it was really educative

tanks bro,now i understand

Hahahahaha! Epic reply! For him, for me, for America and the many millions of soccer fans worldwide, put a shut to the up Ann Coulter.

*in Jaqen H'ghar's voice*
A man does not like how they call football 'soccer'. However, man likes what he has read. A man is pleased.

kobonaire: how does that information help them tell me? Do you read up the news about Chad or Niger republic?? No, and so the same way the average yanks don't give a two about the countries you mentioned.

A survey was conducted in Sweden where A Brit, a Yank, and a Swede were each given a map and told to pin-point the location of State of Philadelphia on the U.S map, the Brit was able to locate and mark the exact spot, the Swede did the same, but the yank had no clue and marked California Instead.

An average Yank has no clue, mate and what's more... they are proud of it.

hmm

I just don't know whats wrong with this americans

The whole world calls it FOOTBALL, americans call it soccer
the whole world calls it trousers, americans calls it pants
the whole world calls it beef, americans calls it steak
the whole world calls it kiligram/centimetre/metre/celcius e.t.c americans calls it pound/inches/feet/fehrinhite

You better get in harmony with the rest of the world: bunch of unrepentant escapee prisoners of the old empire.

milehigh06:

A true American is/are the ones that sees a beautiful chocolate being and call it Black,

OR

That will describe an angel saying it has a White/Reddish skin with a Blue/Green eye lense and a fairy long Blonde/Red/Burnet hair,

That will see a Yellow thing and plant it in your mind that it is Grey

Cappish

Why are people up in arms about this? Its Ann Coulter's point of view. She can say whatever she wants. I believe its called freedom of speech.
