One may go along with calling world's football as "soccer" here and let the people here keep "football" for their "football". But the fact is that what things are called often play big role in going back to the concepts behind them. As done in the preceding post, I can connect and drive enough to build soccer from calling it "football". But how much of American "football" can be connected to and driven from calling it "football"? Frankly speaking the connection is so week (or even contradictory) that calling it by this name feels like an unheard of crazy meaningless application of a word.
