      That’s the official name (Amerikkalainen jalkapallo) for the sport in Finland (and I guess all over Europe). Nickname is jenkkifutis (yankee footie) and it’s short version is just jefu which is used a lot.

      Outside of people joking around and calling it “hand egg”, Trump just got Fifa’s first peace prize, so I wonder why he would suddenly say something like this? Hmmm …

    It would be so fucking funny if this is the last straw for Americans and they finally rise up.

      Supposedly, a lot of “real Americans” ditched the NFL the last few years. He might need to go after NASCAR and NHL too.

      Gehirnerschütterungsrisikorotationsellipsoidsport

      It captures the defining elements of the sport: concussion risk and non-spherical object that I refuse to call “ball”. And rugby can be Gehirnerschütterungsrisikorotationsellipsoidsport 2 or Rotationsellipsoidgehirnerschütterungsrisikosport.

    He was denied an ownership deal to a football team a long time ago and he’s just getting revenge. That’s what tin pot dictators do. There’s also another thing they usually do…

    Wow. So glad this is what’s on what’s left of his mind. Not soaring prices or atrocities committed in his name. No, this is what matters.

    This is what happens when you only have a partial working brain and surround yourself with idiot cocksucking minions.

    I can’t wait until this fuckstain is dead, buried, and I’m taking a huge Taco Bell shit on his grave.

    Why don’t you just call NFL foot ball, soccer? No one else wants to use the name soccer so it’s sort of free.

      Well you see, Americans called the game with goalies “soccer” because that’s what the British called it back when we were crown colonies, so when we invented the game with linebackers, we called that “football.” then everyone else heard our word and decided to change the game with goalies’ name to “football.” So as usual, America continues to be correct, and the rest of the world is bound and determined to fuck it up.

    So thats why FIFA awarded him a peace price award that they made just for him and after this they asked him if he could force the NFL to use another name?🤣 brilliant.

    The fact that he parrots a good point that millions of other people have been saying for decades does not make him a smart man.

    The fact that he does so at a podium in the most powerful position in the world does call into question his intelligence.
