It’s gonna be named Trumpball isn’t it?
As a “soccer” fan, I’m glad we get football back.
They can call it Extreme Football or Gladiatorial Football to differentiate it from the slow-moving low-impact variety
Concussion prolate spheroid sport
it makes sense he hates America, when the maggots realize that they still don’t care, all are treasonous and need to hang from nooses
Are we talking about what the dementia patient says again!?
Whatever it take to distract from the Epstein files sir!
Focusing on the real problems.
He wants his own Super Bowl trophy for his personal collection.
I want FIFA to go all in on nonsensical awards. Need a FIFA Chef of the Year award, FIFA’s best new artist, or FIFA Best Original Screenplay
Is this all because that guy gave him a fake peace prize?
We should give him a fake peace prize
Here’s your peas prize.
‘soccer’ is Oxford slang anyways. Funny that it caught on in the US.

Etymology is fun
Trump is a FIFA asset
I’m probably just dumb but I thought the technical name was Gridiron Football, doesn’t that count?
Yep.
Football is a family of team sports that involve, to varying degrees, kicking a ball to score a goal. Unqualified, the word football generally means the form of football that is the most popular where the word is used. Sports commonly called football include association football (known as soccer in Australia, Canada, South Africa, the United States, and sometimes in Ireland and New Zealand); Australian rules football; Gaelic football; gridiron football (specifically American football, arena football, or Canadian football); International rules football; rugby league football; and rugby union football.[1] These various forms of football share, to varying degrees, common origins and are known as “football codes”.
And though the jokes about gridiron not actually using your feet much are understandable, kicking the ball might not be the reason any of these sports are called “football”. It’s actually possible it’s because they are played on foot, to distinguish them from horseback sports like polo, which were more of a thing at the time they were named.
There are conflicting explanations of the origin of the word “football”. It is widely assumed that the word “football” (or the phrase “foot ball”) refers to the action of the foot kicking a ball.[13] There is an alternative explanation, which is that football originally referred to a variety of games in medieval Europe that were played on foot.[14] There is little conclusive evidence for either explanation.
The rest of the world couldn’t give a shit. Football always was football. No one gives a shit what you call your national sport that no other country in the world partakes in.
*angry metric noises*
Seems like you have a pretty strong opinion for someone who doesn’t give a shit 😂
in Ireland it often will get called soccer a lot of the time because football means Gaelic Football (depending on some context), but then sometimes they definitely say football for english football and gaelic for gaelic
Is it bad that I agree?
Succer Trump wants some balls, huh? It doesn’t make sense.
He’s tackling the big issues first.
