GOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAALLLLLLLL!!!

Hahaha....I am a soccer fan. But I bleed American football.

But I will never understand why the people who named American football named it that. It would be like if I created a game that was a hybrid of dodgeball but it used a bowling ball and I named it softball. The name doesn't fit. And it's already taken. Jack asses. :P

It's because it started as a variant of rugby, which was called rugby football back in the 1800s. So they made an american version of rugby football and called it american football.

And only tangentially related. I always hear people complain/blame Americans for referred to "soccer" when most of the world calls it football. But Americans didn't start calling it soccer. England did.

The word soccer is a colloquial abbreviation of association (from assoc.) and first appeared in the 1880s. An early usage can be found in an English 1892 periodical.[1] The word is sometimes credited to Charles Wreford Brown, an Oxford University student said to have been fond of shortened forms such as brekkers for breakfast and rugger for rugby football. (See Oxford -er) Clive Toye noted "A quirk of British culture is the permanent need to familiarize names by shortening them. ... Toye [said] 'They took the third, fourth and fifth letters of Association and called it SOCcer.'”[2]

Yeah, its a dirty little secret.

Sidenote: RGIII may have been the best fantasy draft decision I've ever made.

As long as he doesn't get killed running one of those idiotic triple-option plays. I was stunned by how many times he got blasted by my Bengals on Sunday, it was almost horrifying. To his credit, he bounced right back up every time...but nobody can take that kind of beating for 16 weeks.

Get out of hear with you damn lagicalness and logical ways and stuff.

Yeah that was a terrible way to end the game. As a Seahawks fan I feel for the Packers and would have been fine had the NFL over ruled the call and gave the game to the Packers.

And... I'm open to trades.

I hope they make a decision on stafford before sunday
I got shaun hill ready to play

Well my friend...money does talk. I wouldnt worry too much I think you can eek out a half a point with Dez.

I'm not looking forward to some of these bye weeks.

I didn't realize I could start 2 tight ends with the flex position, pretty stoked about that
