    Out of sheer reverence for the beauty of England's gift to the world, the French Academie exceptionally allows the French language to honour England for it by not renaming association football with a French term. It is 'le Football' in French.

    I don't think there's even a name for Yank padded football.


    (But 'soccer' inquébécois. )

    meh. i never liked soccer. maybe it was the fact that i was forced to play when i was 7(8?) or, maybe that i just dont like a sport that you only use your feet in. anyway, whatever.
