    Yep, did some further research and the source I used was possibly wrong. However, it is also noted that there are conflicting reports as to the origin of the term football.
    Because there are so many other sports that use the term football as well, e.g. rugby union, rugby league, gelic football, australian rules, gridiron etc. :p

    Sorry but need to share and promote this in every ways....

    RICARDINHO the worlds best Futsal player did again in the Futsal European Championships in the match against Servia (this is just for the very few)



    Futsal is the indoor kiddish version of Football.

    In the last weeks there's been a huge argument around Ricardinho and some Benfica options, because in the last year Benfica cut the wages of the Futsal players and Ricardinho went playing away to Spain saying we would never play against Benfica, but now the newspapers are showing some Benfica Football players wagers, the ones that never play for the first team like Taraabt earning several millions a year, while an idol like Ricardinho was trown away.

    There are so many video clips in the internet dedicated to pay tribute to Ricardinho, please go search some of them..... (here's a small taste)

    Ricardinho - Part II

    This just happened minutes ago in the European Futsal Championships, Portugal - Spain (kinda USA vs. USSR in the 80's) we lost but a guy who could score this goal isn't a looser on my book.

    Coming into the sports lounge for thefirst time. Usually I watch football ⚽ but lately I've been really into hockey (roller hockey,online hockey,ice hockey). Any other hockey fans in here?

    Does anyone consider bowls a sport? I used to play it when I was a child. I found it immensely satisfying.

    As far as sports I follow, that would be Penn State University (alumni Class of 1986) and New York Yankee baseball.

    As far as sports I play, that would be racquetball. Been playing for 25+ years, really enjoy it.

    In case you don't follow racquetball, Kane Waselenchuk is the best racquetball player EVER, he has won 15 USRA singles championships, has won 115 tournaments, and had a 134 match winning streak. Just unbelievable.

    This mini documentary is 6 years old, he has pretty much dominated since this was filmed!

    i love football (soccer) it is a great sport in general and it brings people from all different backgrounds together (or tears them apart) just like star wars

    me and my freinds go down a big hill on a sled one team has 20 people, ten drivers and ten fighters, the fighters will go on the front of the sled and try to knock off the enemy fighter with a stick while the driver of the sled will go in the back and well... DRIVE, if one of the fighters falls off the other team wins but if neither fall off then its whoever got to the bottom of the hill first (the hill was big, around a half mile downhill and uphill and we made jumps to try to make the it a little more tricky caise if you wnet on a jump you could fall off, we had one hundred rounds so each time someone won a round they got a point, i was a fighter and i did it well (just fyi>
