Ah yes, Football, the sport that you play with your feet.

And not Football, the sport you play with your hands.

Ye, the round ball one is soccer, the other one is football. It's already complicate to define the difference between US and UK/Straya footy, dammit.

It's easy EeHee ;) The one with a ball not an egg that you kick with your foot is wait for it... football, the other is basically rugby for pussies. Controversial

Originally there was Football (Football Association)

Then came Rugby Football (Rugby Football League and Rugby Football Union).

Then Football came to America (American Football Association).

THEN came American Football as it is known today (no real governing body, however NFL has the monopoly).

The AFA was unrecognised by FIFA and was disbanded leaving American Football as we know it today to hold the title of 'football'.

Real football was then given the name Soccer as in asSOCiation football.

And there's your history.

The AFA (which played real football with their feet) is older than the American Football of today.

But why name the one with the round ball that you kick with your foot as football when you can say soccer instead? 

American footy is generally rugby, Aussie/UK football is football, and soccer is soccer aye.
