Thursday September 10th (aka Are You Ready For Some Football?!)

[ecchi]

Off for the weekend, leaving about 11:30 tomorrow morning, spending the weekend with my father, then back Sunday night. Travelling by coach, because the train service to where my father lives, sucks.

Kinda answered your own question there. If the first is the best, and the next two are samo-samo, why bother?

Originally the game was played with a ball and only kicked. Then some preppy cheat picked up the ball and carried it, and a new game was invented where cheating was allowed. When this new cheat's game went to America, Americans wanted to back pass, which is against the rules, so they started cheating at a game that was already cheating. Thus the game developed into what only Americans call football. (No idea how the ball became sort of egg shaped thought).

If you want to see a game called football which is played by kicking a real ball with the feet, look for the game that every fucking country on the planet except America calls football!
