It bothers the hell out of me that football has a different name in the USA. The name Americans have for it just degrades the sport. I believe the name itself does actually affect its popularity. I refuse to acknowledge that goofy sounding name and I hope somehow that the US will eventually call it by its rightful name and change the name of that other sport to tackleball or something like that.
Incidentally, what is up with MLS calling the sport by its bogus name, yet naming some of its teams "football clubs" like FC Dallas or Toronto FC. They should make up their minds and rename their league to the AFA.
