OK! I'll give you that if you give me a good answer to my question: Why do you call it football when you lazy americans carry the ball in your hand most of the game?

Should be called Lazy-man's Rugby the way it's played.

Maybe when Americans made the game, they still were on all fours, making the top limbs still feet. Fucking cavemen, they are.

its called football because of how you play it, you use your feet to run right? also the ball that you play it with looks somewhat like your foot. If you want anymore anwsers look up "football" on google.

Really, running is unique to only "football" right? If you mean running for 5 seconds and stopping for 10, then yes. No, running does not count. And feet are not watermelon shaped. Just shut up and f*ck off please.

And back on topic,

Food for sure

Finally! Here's a guide to real football

foot + ball = football
arm + watermelon = armwatermelon

There's a new name for your sport. Armwatermelon

i think that when you consider the fact that fuss (fuß, if you really want to be obnoxious) means foot, and that "football" is obviously just the english word, your argument falls apart.
