The FALSE term for football. Americans stole the term football for their ponsey version of rugby, which is stupid because they barely use their feet. If americans say soccer in Britain, they usually become hospitalised by hooligans.
Yank at a football match in britain: "Hey limey this is a good soccer match eh?"
*a riot breaks out* *Yank is rushed to hospital* *yank survives gets a plane home, vows never to come back to Britain (yay)*
Airport atendant back in america: "Anything to declare?"
Yank: "yeah dont go to britain and call football, soccer"

game played with 11 players on each side attempting to kick a ball into the opposing team's goal. requires athletic ability and endurance. this game is played by many nice people the world over. however, nearly everyone in the United States who plays it has a big inferiority complex and they are bitter that their game is not, and never will be, as popular as football, basketball, baseball, or hockey.
Look, why do all you soccer players hate so much? why do you resent the popularity of the NFL, NBA, and MLB so much? why can't you guys just love your sport and let us love our sports? you guys are so bitter it's pathetic. it's not my fault that soccer sucks and nobody likes it. and if you're trying to get me to like it, saying stupid shit like "you're a lazy ass you could never run for 90 minutes straight" doesn't work. i know the sport, i've played it myself. i don't like it, end of story. i don't hate you guys for liking soccer and not liking baseball; don't hate me and call me ignorant for liking baseball and not liking soccer.

Superfluous colonial synonym for football, aka: The Greatest Sport Known to Man.
Colonial gentleman: "Wow. Soccer is so much better than any sport we ever invented."
Chap from the old country: "Soccer? Do what? Oh, I get it... you mean The Greatest Sport Known to Man!"

Son: Dad, I signed up for the soccer team!
Dad: Ya know, I knew you were gay.

Worlds most overrated sport. It's not just america that calls it soccer anyway. In Ireland, we call Gaelic Football, football.
Give me B-ball any day. At least that never ends in a 0-0 draw.
An exciting result for the soccer match.
1-0
