Americans have ripped off every game there is, your baseball is actually a corrupt form of cricket, rugby is another corrupt form called ‘football’ Maybe the Americans should be thought the actual semantics of English. It will make a refreshing change from what they are trying to ‘correct’ the rest of the world on pronounciation of the English language.

Bear in mind that it wasn’t the immigrants who created English!

Why do people outside the US complain when we call Football Soccer?

Here in America it’s been called Soccer since the early 1900’s, during this time the sport was known world wide as soccer football but was later shortned for obvious reasons. So why do people complain about us call it soccer, calling it soccer is part of our soccer heritage, and as Americans we should be proud of this difference in name.
whether or not soccer is more popular worldwide than american football is not important, Americans have been calling futbal soccer for ages, so stop telling us that its not called soccer its called futbal because that just isn’t true
