On Sports Tonight, they now call it "football".
I prefer football, soccer sounds amateurish.
Yes, people are doing what they are told. Football is the name of your local code. The yanks aren't silly enough to call Gridiron football just because Fox Sports in Sydney wants them to. Soccer might be the world game but only because dirt poor kids can kick a Goat's skull around for recreation in a Brazilian slum.
Wake me up when the real football comes back on.
