You sir! get one updoot!
Most often seen from Europeans being insufferable trying to prove how insufferable Americans are. Just confirmation that there are idiots everywhere, not just isolated to specific countries. >

As evidenced by the way they don't gripe about Australian football, Gaelic football, Canadian football... >

And american football is called football people it’s played on the ground, like running >

Watch the video, ignore the comments, problem solved >

I recently heard on a podcast that the term soccer was actually British, was used to differentiate between soccer and rugby because they were both part of the same football organization. But they didn’t end up really giving a shit about rugby so much, so the term became irrelevant to them. >

All this reminded me of was the scene in Billy Madison where Billy goes, “He called the shit, poop!”
In all seriousness, soccer football, football soccer. Both are one in the same. Doesn’t matter what you call it, if you’re going to rag on someone for what they call it, you’re just immature and not adding to the conversation >

You're right, it doesn't matter what you call it. The sport still sucks as badly. >

Yet it’s the most popular sport in the world, I guess your comment belongs right on on this subreddit >

If it's so popular, why is watching the game as exciting as watching paint dry?
Is it's popularity from the clowns that are referred to as "athletes" pretending to be injured for no reason what-so-ever?
One of my co-workers had the World Cup on one of the TVs in the break room and was excited. I asked him what was so exciting about watching men running around and doing absolutely nothing for an hour. It was so boring that I literally fell asleep. >

I would say the same about NFL. Bunch of knuckleheads ramming each other for a ball. With 15 min of action in 3 hour snoozefeast >

At least in the NFL the injuries Are Real. >

that being the only positive about the nfl tells a lot >

In the NFL the players actually score points.
The fact that soccer games end in 0 - 0 scores, is NOT positive at all. If your players are so pathetic that the game has to be decided by a coin toss because none of them was good enough to score. That's a terrible game. >

It doesn't matter whether you call it "football" or "soccer"... You're still gay. >

If its a soccer highlight, I'd imagine the comment section is the most interesting thing >

Can confirm, I once watched an entire game of soccer. >

People who make sportsball their only personality are among the worst >

r/Ihatesportsball >

Hate is a strong word, I don’t really mind it these days due to being busy with work. I used to be into basketball during high school with a bit of both kinds of football back in college. It’s just fun to piss people off when it comes to these things, especially the touchy sensitive sportsball bros. >

I linked that sub cuz you said sportsball not cuz you hated on it lmao >

No worries, those kinds of subs are enjoyable, they remind me of r/ihavesex >

I gotta say, someone not being able to deal with the most innocent banter of that sort - might just be annoying themselves.
Not liking the sportsball is fine. Making that a superiority thing, come on. Middle and upper class people did this for over a century. Don't be them. >

I'm trying to read comments relating to the point of a video, but every time someone mentions soccer, thats all the comments are about. I dont give a fuck about the banter, just stop overusing it in an attempt to be funny >

I guess people online can be annoying about anything, especially in droves.
