Soccer wasn’t even a thing until American football came across
False
Only 30 years ago and I am right. Right after American football became popular
Only stopped being used. It doesn’t mean it was invented 30 years ago
I wish I could send screenshots but I’ll just copy and paste what Google says and you can do the research
😐
But I got a question. What sport is older, football or American football?
the research is right there
Answer the question 🤓
soccer was a term literally coined by people in oxford lol
^
Don’t know how I can be a dumbass for asking a question that I know the answer for but just seeing if you do but if football is older then American football should not be called football
that literally means nothing
I love trolls in the morning Dals
idk if its a troll or just genuinely low iq
Probably both
Trolls 💀
Like no shit football is older than American football because American isn’t even that old
Are we just going with what British call football or Brazil as well and many other country’s ?
Oh thanks mr teachers per
like if you want to do real research, you know that one is association football, and the other is gridiron football. brits called association football soccer, gridiron football was shortened to football
Needed that help
then soccer was just changed back to football
Anyway I’ve had enough of this troll peace
the british literally called it soccer first
But then changed it to football and now it’s known as football all over the world. If you go to Brazil or Spain and tell them if they watch soccer, they wouldn’t even know what your on about. Soccer was changed to football before American football was a thing
Pretty easy to understand
And?

If you can understand the game someone is talking about does the name really matter?
When you change something then you call it the new term
soccer was literally a popular term in britain when football was a thing
Nah I just don’t like how Americans say that the real football is not the real football and that they made up the name
soccer was very popular after ww2 because of the british and american soldiers mingling
This reminds me of the Patrick you’re scaring him meme
Soccer = futbol futbol = le soccer
Soccer soccer soccer @dark flare
Simple as that shouldn’t be any argument about it
we didnt make up the name
Dolphin stop it you’re scaring him!
National Football league
Scaring me with the name dolphin 😂💀🤓
Anyways
Of the 45 national FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) affiliates in which English is an official or primary language, 43 use football in their organisations' official names (Canada and the United States use soccer).
Ok?
Only 2 call it soccer and guess who they are 😨
It probably takes 20 of those countries to equal the USA
Anyway clearly this conversation isn’t going anywhere
So your saying that the USA is bigger then Russia? An average American citizen right there
I said 20 not all of them
But that 1 country is bigger then your country
Anyway I’m still not sure what you’re trying to prove
I love basketball
Don’t bring up the other 20 when that one country is literally 1.5 times bigger then your shithole
Same
Of the 45 national FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association) affiliates in which English is an official or primary language, 43 use football in their organisations' official names (Canada and the United States use soccer).
I’ll use the right football if you use the right than 🙏
2 countries call it soccer out of 45
Can we move on from this useless conversation and mention basketball instead?
How about Jokic
Basketball I love
Boxing is the goat of sports
Football is second in my opinion
But nothing comes close to boxing in my opinion
I respect other peoples opinion as well
Jokic deserves another mvp but sadly won’t happen with how shit the Nuggets are playing
Are you on about rocket league ?
Who are the nugget’s 😂
How can you not know last season’s mvp
Thanks for the information but as I said I don’t watch it instead some matches
Just like playing it
Jokic is cracked
Man is almost averaging a triple double every night
Hard to believe he got drafted during a Taco Bell commercial
😳
It’s a shame Jokic is having to do this with a super injured team
Fr
wait what lmao
That’s a burrito
no u
The fact he fell this far is insane and was a steal for the Nuggets
I could be in the NBA if I wanted to 
Sure
LOL
Perhaps as a water boy
Ok? The NBA is a lot different than high school
Just to wake up from it, but that's alright
True
You got a lot of players that are awful in the NBA
I broke the record for most points scored in a game
My bowling team was 2.5 points off of making state. We sent 3 people to state for singles out of the 5
Then I turned off nba2k
LMAO
So, did any of them win?
I don’t recall how they did but I don’t think so
Well atleast they made it to state I suppse
mofos im 13-1 in my fantasy league lol
probably bragging about some free 10 man league
good
I guess they got super lucky and didnt have their first round pick injured
Wym he is talking bout middle school bro chill
I want everyone to type in on google maps , cpsa and then get the directions and go there and then I live near it so try to find me
Ok
👍
Wut
I live like 1 block down so try to find me
If anyone does I’ll give them one buck
Ik I’m rich
U saw nothing
what
?
in which sport?
Normal tournament
#rocket-league then
go to the rl chat
Do you guys think mbappe is going to Real Madrid?
ye
I don’t want him to
u a psg fan?
Yh lol
i mean id be shocked if he doesnt
om fan here 🤣
suns>lakers change my mind 💀
nah
lebron a menace
out here making peoples eye bleed
ye
havent heard nun abt the cavs since he left
cant believe kevin love still ballin
ye
sexton trying to carry rn
tbh bron should retire he havent a bad season and aint even in the mvp convo
he always is to
ye
would it actually tho
KD has most points in my eyes he should be mvp ngl
and kyrie cant even get a vaccine hes abt to turn into ben simmons watch
honestly tho speaking of MVP jokic probably not going to win back to back because of how injured the nuggets are
jokic a menace from last season idc what anyone says
its a shame standings play such an important role in the mvp race but I get it
top 3 for mvp are kd/steph/jokic in some order
tbh bulls mad underrated
los angeles retirement home
jokic nah kd/curry/to be determined
cuz curry just unstoppable in every way and kd jus poppin off
jokic really trying to carry the second string hard
is anyone really more valuable tho than jokic besides those 2 possibly? no
dude jokic's +- is nuts
is jamal murray still out or
yea
Darky did you see his left hand sling pass?
yikes
i think curry was like that last year
and MPJ is also out
his career goin down fast
but trash team so no mvp
they started super hot
bc hes like 7'582 almost unguardable
LOL
steoh owns portland
so you're mad because someone is a natural athlete?
dame is the whole blazers team 💀
giannis and jokic are both cheat codes
tbf jokic worked into it @dapper imp
i meant not really he was injured then came back and dogged on my team thats y tbh
giannis is working lol
it still cracks me up that the MVP was drafted during a fucking taco bell commercial
honestly tho jokic was a huge steal for the nuggets
luka is one of my favorite players
i think boban's personality is runbbing off on him haha
why not westbrook's shooting lol
i do too but i just feel like he needs to find that perfect fit
and fix how inefficient he is
yeah dorky
hell na
nope just westbrook slander
westbrook on the wizards didnt feel right at all so idk abt la either
ye
idek
he needs a place where he can only shine 💀
ye
almost forgot abt them
been so long
I hope Drew Lock proves me wrong this upcoming game
i'm expecting a 3 and out first drive tho
Touchdown first try
🤨
Refs vs seahawks
So we're not counting AFL right?
horrific sport
1.Bayern 2. City 3.Liverpool 4.Ajax or Real Madrid
They are currently 7 games unbeaten in la liga
interesting if Ajax play a european giant in the UCL, then we get to see their true ability.
We know their ability already. They battered Dortmund
ahh dortmund aren’t always reliable though.
Yh but still
they can dismantle a team but earlier in the season the lost 5-1 to Frankfurt
Antony is beast he could go for a alot
💀
🍿
I think it depends how you look at it and where you look
If I recall the USA women's Football team has place better and done well than the men's team (of course depending on year)
Idk what you mean by near...but physically speaking 17 year old boys are the equivalent to professional women. Men's game is much faster
Obviously ya
Right so I'm curious what he means by near
That’s why I asked depends what they mean
Usa values women sports way higher than most of the world so we got a bit of a head start
Like placements in tournaments is the only real thing you can compare
then you look at how much gets pumped into college as well
Not really worth the time and energy
ok not sure how thats related to sports
my bad
lions are the best 2-11-1 team
I dunno about that somehow they'd lose to themselves
They are the only 2-11-1 team
The Steelers should of beat the lions
But mason Rudolph is a nothingburger
thats the joke
I know. I’m just being silly
But they should be 3-11
But mason Rudolph is a nothingburger
They should be 14-0
But those damn refs this season
Always going against the lions smh
The Lions are my second favorite team because I’ve come to love Dan Campbell’s dedication
Also his attitude toward his players
messi is the best of all time
idk but u might be right cuz i dont know anything about soccer
Is it me or does anyone think that the LA Lakers are just not really a good team
Like lets be honest westbrook doesnt do that much
and lebron just needs to carry
Davis does something but isnt much as a impact as Lebron
¯_(ツ)_/¯
garb team
Who plays fortnite here
It's because of the chemistry, not the individual players
ig
Westbrook is bookie, he is overrated
Ratio
Thank
You

No
I didn’t really read it tbh
Still got time to delete it
Lmao
Thx bro 🤝
What rank are you on rl
I swear this has been talked about for years now https://www.si.com/nfl/broncos/news/aaron-rodgers-packers-broncos-realistic-trade-proposal?fbclid=IwAR1YGEZTuUX16dl7adRvrv80hE6bdjo7OSr7PEpRPR3vpmrSlJuMbCcjarg
either pull the trigger or stop talking about it
Plat 1 or 2
I don’t see Lafleur trading Rodgers
Tbh I hope Rodgers gets traded to the broncos
Broncos need another reign of success
@proper vector
the Broncos are literally one above average QB away from making the playoffs
also chalk this week up as a loss for us @snow saddle Drew Lock is shit and shouldn't even be a backup
honestly no idea how he still has a job
Raiders
Yeah y’all lost that
this is a key matchup for us and we're stuck with Lock
I want the bears to win this week so we can put Seattle out of their misery
I miss the 2015 Broncos
@proper vector if the dolphins win, it will be a fucking miracle
Tbh same
tbf dont count them out
the Dolphins have been on a hot streak for some fucking reason
Wait dolphins
I meant broncos
Fix
Fuck
My bad
Dolphins went from 1-6 to 7-6 I think
Last year bears went 5-1 to 5-7 and that pissed me off
We went on a cold streak
@proper vector Go play QB for them, I’m sure you’ll be better
Probably
Put me in coach @novel glen
Actually I should be calling for the coaches heads
What are you talking about
I believe that Seattle will get eliminated if the bears beat them @dark flare
We shall see there buster
anyone know if Lamar’s gonna play this week?
He might not
yeah from 1-7 to 7-7 havent lost in a while
but their next 3 games arent gonna be easy
suii
suuuuiiiii
Bears’ HC Nagy announced that Nick Foles will start at QB in Seattle.

I think I get to disown knowing my friends dad now @novel glen
I need to find a shareable version of this clip
Oh I see he does this every year
This is from last year https://www.9news.com/amp/article/sports/nfl/denver-broncos/mike-klis/merry-klismas-heres-klis-kringles-gifts-to-the-broncos-this-year/73-0aac4bf3-5453-4fd9-85f2-7a6cd8869d16

😏
Champion league

Cricket is an th8ng but car soccer is epic
Man U fan
let’s go man u
Trust me bro
What is this nfl people talk about? Is it anything like those nft things
Something Something overvalued Something Something
The good thing about having your kickoff returned for touchdown is you get the ball back right away
Pointyball
Nah more of a ronaldo fan
But i do believe Ronaldo pockets atleti
So man utd is gonna go through imo
w
w
if it was man u vs psg who do i think would win???
Arsenal are gonna win premier league

Real Madrid making Europa league
nah
rm are actually one of the top favourites to win ucl
nsh
Common sense

Barca win la LIGA
🥚

New Castle Are

Wdym
Leeds United 4th place rn
Arsenal 2nd
Brentford 3rd
man city are 1st
but i prefer liverpool

real madrid are 1st on the table with 46 points
they are 8 points above sevilla which is second
Bro chill I’m joking 😂
i support man city
Curious how long these "city supporters" really have been supporting city 
I can’t wait to see Lock absolutely prove why he’s not a starter today @novel glen
Who they playing
I told you the other day Raiders
I wonder how many know the old logo lmao
You told Exthras, not me
Oh my bad
McManus and the defense are carrying us @novel glen
who is the best rocket league player at the moment?
#rocket-league @bitter lagoon
monkey moon
KDs twitter is so fucking funny
Anyone here do a bit of boxing
lavine is fucking mental
What's iavine

fax
Oof
@spare yacht What’s happening with Washington man
Yeah I saw that
Dallas had to put in their backup, that’s how bad they’re getting blown out 💀
We're a fucking dogshit organization and will be until Snyder sells or dies
s
even the Cowboys backups are torching the football team https://t.co/8kHytPC2IP

i forogor he’s banned.
awkward
I fell asleep after halftime
I meant to turn it off and lose some RL tournaments
whos ur fav soccer player
I play squash
р
р
hi
I picked up their defense too
we abt to go all the way 🥶
they’re almost always a good point getter cuz so many turnovers
I need help
I mean any defense against fucking Washington is decent basically
We EXTRA shit the bed last night
The Washington no names got absolutely gangbanged by the Dallas cowgirls
so bad that Jonathan Allen had to throw hands with his own teammate after letting up 4 tds in a row
Ravens shit the bed too
Joe burrow fucked them
Hard
525 yards 4 tds
Chargers got ass fucked too
95% of bettors bet on the chargers
95% of bettors will now have to sell their childrens christmas toys to afford rent
higgins carried my team
The person in my fantasy league that had tee higgins still lost bc he also had the pats defense💀
nice
ooof
So we are not doing ok
Still won this week tho so we cool
Bc the rams d had more points than all my wrs combined
who were your wrs?
Tim patrick, russel gage, Jakobi meyers
oooof
I HAD jarvis landry and sterling sheperd but
That’s the other reason why my team is bad
yeah i got gage thinking he would put up a good performance but no
i picked up amon ra from waivers tho
yikes
Out of everyone I drafted
8 of them got injured
For extended periods of time
I absolutely SHIT on my opponent in week one and then only won 3 matchups since
Bc I can never have a fully healthy lineup
oof
yeah injuries suck\
ive gotten lucky tho
barring a 24 point performance from the saints defense i move on to my leagues finals
Even everybody that I picked up from waivers to replace all my injuries
Has gotten injured
David Johnson injured ty’son Williams injured
Broski
Random ass wrs I picked up to replace sterling sheperd injured
Ur buggin if u think rm are gonna get knocked out
how many teams are in your league
I feel that CMC was my first draft pick
is 1000 lbs leg press possible ?
14
I was projected to make playoffs but ended up like 3-12 or whatever because I literally didnt meet my projections 99% of the the games
Definitely
that explains your subaverage wide receivers
No shut the fuck up
Yea i had a good wr group before they all got injured
I had Keenan allen, jarvis landry, and sterling sheperd
But I traded Keenan allen bc I didn’t make playoffs and other two got injured
Don’t talk about Mike Glennon like that😤😤😤😤😤
💀
Best qb in the league💯💯💯💯💯
fromm better 😤
mac jones has shown some brilliance
Mac jones is very good
they're rookie's they wont develop instantly
hes set to finish with the highest completion percentage of any rookie ever i think
I like Mac jones
Some can develop well like Jones but not all do
And also Trevor lawrence is gonna waste his years in jackoffville
but yeah this rookie qb class is very underwhelming especially when davis mills is the second best in the entire class
Sad to see
And james robinson has potential to be a top 5 rb if he didn’t play in Jacksonville
hes injured now too
He cant become top 5 if he keeps getting injured
Exactly
And the reason he keeps getting injured is bc of that dog shit o line
If RBs continue to get hurt this badly I might draft a WR first
He’s never gonna reach his full potential if he doesn’t play with a better o line
Teams have a habit of over using RB1s
yeah rbs have no sustainability
thats why they never get 10m+/year contracts anymore
James robinson is definitely my favorite rb in the league and it sucks to see his years be wasted with a shitty team
fr
I think we’ll start to see people drafting WR first in the future but what do I know about fantasy
ive always been taking wrs first
Same walka
I learned my lesson
especially considering i play in ppr leagues
Same here
if youre in ppr you def need to take a wr first, or at least top 3
CMC was great until he get injured Lul
I just few like those teams are relying to much on the top 3 RBs
Which like understandable but yikes
yeah wrs work in a committee but rbs are kinda alone
At least the great ones
unless youre cooper kupp lul
Williams I have my eye on next season
I think the Broncos are going to start giving him more important roles
oof the broncos
i feel like i could watch the lions over the broncos
which i do anyways
good record but a boring ass team fr
Nice
I just want to see us get Rodgers but it’ll probably not happen @steel lake
The problem is Rodgers is still a short term gain
Anyone like man city?
yea
Nice
Love* yes
Fr
4-0 to 4-3
I thought we were gonna throw
We missed walkers pace on the Leicester counters
Yh i like him midfield better
Yeah his passing was good
Mhm
aaron rodgers?
that would be a good move
but yall need a slightly better roster because essentially the broncos would only get aaron rodgers for a SB push
our roster is actually decent
an above average QB would 100% get us to the playoffs
cowboys may go all the way
yeah for sure but not to the sb
well
maybe
idk
a better run game would help
like i think of the broncos sb 50 roster and the current one is just not nearly as good
Like I said Willams is starting to be that
sb? ur trifflin broncos not it
I think you need to re read that sentence @spare nest
I mean defense has been fine without him
cowboys tho 🥶
wouldn't be surprised
They did lose to the Broncos after all
fr?
Yes
I find it comical the Cowboys haven’t beaten the Broncos since I’ve been alive
its a process
A process that takes a half century
ye dont even have an excuse
uh
The Broncos just need to find a QB
fast
They’re easily a playoff team with an above average QB
We need to get rid of Lock and Bridgewater
Teddy is fine but he’s not a winning option
yikes
Imagine if the Broncos get Rodgers for a few years
Clearly you missed last season
He was not happy in the off season
ye but still
If GB doesn’t make the SB I could see Rodgers wanting a change
not really any adams type of wrs on the broncos
If Rodgers were traded to the Broncos, it would make sense for Adams to follow when he’s a free agent, hence the Packers wanting to cash in on the battery
Rodgers and Adams with that Denver D would be fucking scary
It’s just how much are the Broncos willing to sacrifice long term for short term gain
cuz i dont see how u have a injured toe and still run tds
Athletes are insane in that department
No idea
I think they know the difference between "it hurts because I can't do that" and "it hurts and that's inconvenient" after a while
Russel Wilson wants to leave Seattle so you could look at that too @proper vector
hurts wont do it
man cant make a read outside his first option for his life
but yeah someone like hurts
dual threat qbs are kind of meta
football not soccer 👍🏼
Ok eu 🤢
yes
we do not care how you call it
like top 10 u mean?
@plucky nimbus nah like atleast 30
Deserved 96 finals MVP imo
not lying though
👍🏼
@plucky nimbus nah hes worthy of atleast 40
Hi everyone
Khabib Nurmagomedov is overrated
@novel glen ?????? https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/32947091/vic-fangio-says-absolutely-deserves-another-year-denver-broncos-coach?platform=amp
What has he done as HC to “deserve” another year?
Nothing really, but he also hasn’t been terrible
broncos are ass
more like average
you have to be average to be on the broncos
?????????
make sure to fuck off
fuck no
^
please stfu
not a very good way to get subs
anyways the rat finally doing not-rat things
https://twitter.com/bmarch63/status/1475886886799515657?s=21
hasnt he been pretty good for yall
considering he doesnt have a qb
Why was I ghost pinged
someone tried to advertise their youtube channel @novel glen
Lmao but isnt there literally a self promotion channel?
yes but also they pinged random people which isnt allowed
even if he did his play calling is atrocious
Ok but da bears
Suck
nagys gonna finish 7-10 and the bears are gonna keep him im calling it 🤣
Liverpool freelo ong 🥱
This proves man city is better than liverpool
Leicester beat liverpool
Man city clapped Leicester
i absolutely love this, about an equal amount as i dislike brad marchand
when does he just go and lick gary bettman @spare yacht
when the bruins win the stanley cup
So apparently scoring 6 goals isnt a clapping?
It was close but we scored 2 more
it isn't clapping when you almost throw a 4-0 lead
Its still a 3 goal lead mate
sports life
Ok.
a damn shame :(
rip
Damn
rip
Is the game madden named after him?
yes it is
Oh thats cool
C I T Y
are second to none

Ahaha no they don’t
What is with the ssl sign
That’s not Ssl..
thats the old GC logo but #rocket-league
that was in response to "when will marchand lick bettman", i don't WANT them to win the stanley cup
neither do i but anything to make bettman get the message to fuck off
RIP John Madden..
stuff like this doesnt get old https://youtu.be/tnGPTPzF33I?t=4
Hi
I sure do love the sports
Same
Soccer anyone
Zinedine Zidane is the most elegant footballer in the last 30 years
Zidane appreciation moment
that 2006 spain game humbled spain so much lol
Bro I'm not disagreeing that Zidane is one hell of a player but you're telling me Ronaldinho didn't match his elegance
i wouldnt call ronaldinho's playstyle elegant id say its more like juga bonito
Idk Zidane out eleganced all of Brazil in 2006. I think Ronaldinho was more flair/fun
Shit man is joga bonito not elegant?
Also fuck you bringing up 2006 lolol
Not as bad as 98
Think its more samba dancing versus like...ballet
And I had to bring up 2006
35 years old and bossed that Brazil team
Yes lol
Brazil was the semis
Simultaneously was a legend on two fronts 
Really got his head into the game
Yeah that France Italy game really came to a head
no
i wouldnt call it elegant
more like magical or something
quarter finals actually
I think semis was against Portugal?
I guess I don't follow the logic considering elegant meant beautiful in a sense, and joga Bonito is literally about playing beautiful soccer
yeah depends what you call elegant for me its like a simple move that just beats the defender while joga bonito has more complexity to it
ye it was
well chelsea doesnt win again ffs
Chelsea is the mud they lost reece james today aswell
ref wasnt good imo but i mean its brighton
Didnt watch the game but brighton are a tough team to break down
City are running away especially now that afcon is gonna take salah, mane, matip and mendy so liverpool and chelsea will be in the mud
Yep
@steady ravine no
Plus no chance anything you're friend is making is the funniest shit I'd ever see
Lol
Oooh you know what it is
They don't look in here
He left the server and they only deleted the one message
just a transition issue paks
Good news guys, the toes spam is deleted while the promo message from 40 minutes ago remains at large
Lol
Anyone do sports competitively? Which one
Depends what you consider competitive?
I competitively race grasshoppers ||fake||
Real
Niceee.. who wins
