avery [#3]same reason we use inferior measurement and temperature systems, we suck lmfao
Don't gotta be cringe about it.
The fact of the matter is, "football" was a term used for multiple sports when they were invented, including Rugby. The English actually created the term Soccer, but later went away from it while America adopted it and kept it. Just like the English creating the Imperial System and America adopted it and continues to use it, but again, we're not the ones to come up with it.
tldr: The English have invented many things that America adopted, but the English later reverted back and America didn't.

TLDR: English realized their ideas were dumb and switched back while Americans didn't.

Basically, although the British still use some Imperial measurements, despite giving America crap about it. ex. They still use miles per hour on the road, pints for beer, etc.

The centre of a sphere(geoid) is in its core
Every point on a sphere is equidistant from the center
So how can a country on the surface be the center?

DELUSIONAL_POTTER_FAN [#16]probably means the United States idk
True, probably not even Canada, or Mexico, or the other multiple other countries/territories in North America that isn't the United States. Too bad dude doesn't know his geography so he thinks North America is only The United States of America.

Are you stupid? I explained why. To get into more detail with something I mentioned, Rugby used to be called "Rugby football" and Soccer used to be called "Soccer football". British invented these names, including Soccer in the first place, but later decided to trash it and just called it football. America kept the term Soccer. I don't know about the rest of the world, but I guess they followed the Brits because they're in Europe and it's the "origin" of the sport. (Although technically the origin is China, but that's another discussion)
