Lol, I see you don't watch football. First of all, the americans never played Brazil(number one team) and the americans didn't win any 2-0. If you meant england, they drew and their goal wasn't even really supposed to go in.


Apparently you don't either. If you were paying attention you could have caught on that they were takling about Spain when they were the #1 ranked team in the Confederations Cup... Which made Brazil the rightful #1 team for that time.... Germany will be the best now tho ;)

Ow yes , beating the 1# ranked team , once is super awesome , especially in the Confederations Cup!(which is less important than the world cup btw)

Brazil also got beaten plenty of time , so did the Dutch(who held the 1# position for a while) , the Germans , the Spanish etc...

Probably the worst team in the NFL. You won't find me saying I support them.

the sport you call football is actually handegg

I've heard this one before from Europeans.

1. the ball is egg shape

True. But it's still a ball, according to Dictionary.com

Dictionary.com wrote:
2.
a round or roundish body, of various sizes and materials, either hollow or solid, for use in games, as baseball, football, tennis, or golf.

Not necessarily true. In American Football, the game starts off with "Kickoff." I believe that's also how European Football starts, too, although the two are very different.

American Football starts with a "Kicker" drilling the ball approximately 60-70 yrds. down the field to the opposing team. They catch it both sides just run balls to the walls at each other and tries to murder the other side, basically.

European Football, I believe, starts with two players in a center circle, one trapping the ball with their foot. They bump the ball to their teammate... and then they start playing.

On top of this, in American Football, players are using their feet A LOT, as is any other athlete. So, really when you get down to it, it makes perfect sense to be called football. Although, it should be separate from European Football, so calling it American Football seems fine with me.

Also... there are MANY other reason Americans are BELIEVED to be stupid. I highly doubt Sports is near the top of that list.

America is called the dumbest Country around aye?
The football your comparing american football to is Futbol.
We call Football, Football because also involves kicking such as punting , etc. .
Before you start calling other countries stupid. . .I'm sure their much more stupider things in your countries as well.
Football-Futbol is to COMPLETELY different things.
