 | I guess European football would be a designation that can make happy everyone, and avoid any confusion. Of course in places in wich the american or australian football is inexistent ( like Argentina) that is not necessary. Last edited by CharlesBronson; 03-04-2009 at 07:10 PM. |

| I'll take American Football or Rugby. Games should be decided by violence.

| Well, in soccer (football in Argentina) is forbidden to take the ball in hands, so, I found more proper call it football. Other sports allows to players use their hands. |

| Football it is. Aussie Rules is Aussie Rules. Gaelic football is Gaelic football. American football is American football. Rugby is, well, rugby. Meatheads running around holding on to a ball like a special kid with a teddy bear. You can't have the "World game" and call it European football. Looks like it was just a slow news day anyway...

| Hockey. Except the professional team from Minnesota, they have been stinking it up lately. Thank goodness for the Minnesota State High School Hockey Tournament next week!!!

| I used to love to play American football. It is an institution in high schools around the states. But I am fascinated with European football, and the World Cup. I used to have the Fox Soccer channel and could always catch a good match. I really like Manchester United and Madrid. I would love to learn more about the teams you all might like and why. |
