Actually the British invented the word Soccer around 1880 as a short version of Association Football. The word started out as Socca' but later when it came to America it was called Soccer because another type of football (rugby football) was more popular with colleges.

Not trying to offend you, but I just don't like it when people call me an idiot along with all other Americans before they do a little research.

@TemplarJacob well then British are dumb as well. lol jk americans are dumb not for calling this ^ game soccer, but for calling a sport football where the only thing you do with your feet is run and punt the ball rarely. plus it's not a ball.
