Sorry, guys, I'm waaaay backlogged reading these! My comment on the
whole football/soccer thing is that, frankly it makes more sense to
call soccer "football", as the whole point is kicking a ball with a
foot.

Whereas, even as an American only marginally interested in football,
it's obvious that the ball is not ball-shaped, and for the greater
majority of the game the foot does not come in contact with the ball.
Yes, there are rare kickoffs and punts and stuff, but that's like
calling soccer "headball" because you occasionally hit it with your
head! 

Therfore, I propose callig American Football GOALS ON LONG FIELDS or
GOLF for short...
