I was responding to geo, but someone posted in between. I believe American football should have been called something else.
It makes sense for soccer to be called football. It doesn't make much sense that American football is called football.

People at work have taken four weeks holiday to sit and watch every game

for the record, i think people should call it whatever they want. in my head its either/or.
what i don't get is why this has to be a constant argument.
it's turning into macs vs. pc
anyway, its fun to see everyone get so excited over the worldcup  makes me wanna watch soc... OOPS football (just teasin! )

Anyone watching the England match? should be a boring draw, so I might plump to see if Trinidad and Tobago can pull off the impossible against Paraguay...

man, Owen is fuxxed, no idea what happened. He won't bring on Walcott because he's inexperienced. So noone understands why Sven picked him in the first place

Got early to watch this match. England looked great first half, though should have taken more of the chances they had. Owen don't look good. Twisted knee at the least. Second half was as if both teams swapped over in intensity and flow. The Swedes had England jumping with their set pieces - they got them 2 goals and nearly a third.
