    A million dollars a week. That's obscene really.
    .
    Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.



    May the Lord bless this post.

        The game is Association Football, commonly shortened to football. I've no problem with Americans calling it what the hell they want but someone who knows the history of the game and has played it at it's highest level should get it right. He has no integrity and no respect for the game.
        Why can't he call it association football, that is the correct terminology?



        Soccer is an abbreviation for Association Football. The Football
        Association was formed in London in October 1863 when representatives
        of eleven clubs and schools met in an attempt to standardize the rules
        of the game. One of the rules prohibited the carrying of the ball, a
        rule that would lead to the Rugby-oriented clubs leaving the
        Association several months later. The name Association Football was
        coined to distinguish it from Rugby.

        By 1889, the abbreviation socca' was in use, and the spelling soccer
        had made its appearance by 1895."

        My friends and I frequently played "soccer" when I was a lad!
        I like young women cos there stories are shorter!

          Really, it's the way Beckham has sold out which angers me more than the actual word. He has never called it soccer before, but now it suits his wallet, he's changed his vocabularly.

            Yeah, now you mention it, I think calling it "soccer" was more common in England when I was young than it is today.
