I LOVE the new name for the Team Formerly Known as Redskins; it's SO PERFECT for the city they play for: None at all. Just what Congress would call a "continuing resolution." They're just the Washington Football Team.

Mostly stolen: I also like the Washington Opossums. They play dead at home, and get killed on the road. And the "O" is always silent.
Very confusing. In Europe they call Soccer “Football”.

We should call it “Hand Ball” what with all the throwing and passing and running with a ball which really shouldn’t be called a ball in the first place since it’s sort of oval in shape and not round.

They can have a photo of Jim Traficant on their helmet.
That’s why they call it “Europe”.
It’s called “football” because you play it on your feet, as opposed to on a horse. It was inspired by polo.
FWIW, in Romance languages, a “ball” is something solid. An inflated ball is usually something similar to “balloon.” For example, “ballon” (French), “balon” (Spanish), “pallon” (Italian).
