Did your English Pilgrim Fathers give you the old origional game of football that involved much use of the foot to kick a spherical ball, in addition to punching and kicking and knocking people over? Or, did they give you the English game of Rugby Football played using the League rules? Your game looks and plays like an adaptation of the League rules Rugby Football game.
We show you respect by refering to your game as Football, but we do prefix it with American to make it clear we are not refering to the actual game of Football.
The Irish show respect (and that is amazing) to the game by calling their game Gaelic Football and the actual game, Football. Likewise the Australians call their game Australian Rules Football (closer to Gaelic) and the actual game, Football.
You show no respect! Yoy call the game Soccer Ball. Why?
