Americans use their hands, Europeans use their feet. Which one should be called football?

It's hard to argue with your genius logic.

Goalkeepers alway seem to be superstitious nancys.

Superstitious goalkeepers tend to stink...literally. They tend to not wash certain "lucky" items such as socks or shirts or worse. Fortunately they don’t typically sweat as bad as field players but still, after a few matches a courtesy wash is in order.

But does that mean he is some kind of pink doughnut eater?

I've always called myself a goalie. (*shrugs*)

Did the keeper pop the collar when he wore his pink jersey? 'Cause if he did, I would like to punch him in the face.

Females signal submission with pink areas.The Romans knew how to run a stadium.Futbol and the little blue pill now that is progress.

I never change outfits if I get a shut out in a match, but I sure as fuk wash it.

President Erik		2007-08-29 03:18:42 PM

It's not pink, it's 'lightish red'.

/don't worry, Vkoslak, it's the thought that counts

saosinned		2007-08-29 03:42:56 PM

superstitions are a way of life for goalies. if he doesn't want to wear pink he shouldn't have to wear pink.

/ played hockey goalie for 10 years
// I played much worse without the correct number and my name spelled out on the back of my jersey
/// THESE ARE NOT SELF FULFILLING PROPHECIES

Both games.

They both evolved (along with rugby and a host of other sports) from the primordial football games played in medieval Europe.

Sports played by peasants were sometimes referred to as "football" because they were played on foot, as opposed to sports played by aristocrats, which were played on horseback.
