Should American Football be called football and football be soccer or should it be American Football and Soccer? I think it should be American Football and Soccer because it's a lot less confusing plus most of Americans call it Soccer anyways.

Football should be called football. The ball is kicked with your foot and you're not allowed to use your hands. The whole point of the game is to use your feet.

I have absolutely no idea why American football is called football. The whole sport is copied from rugby and football, which has been around far before American football. From what I've seen, most of the game is played with your hands anyway.

Football & Soccer. It would make more sense if soccer was known as Football though but I still think American Football should be called Football.

It should just be left the way it is. If someone says soccer you automatically know they are talking about football.

This hurt my brain..
Personally, I don't see anything changing in the future.
We stubborn Americans will probably never change the name of football.
