Actually it seems as though when they invented american football they were just not clever enough to come up with their own name so they stole the name of a game already in existence. The better question is why did they change football to soccer so that they could call a new game football.

Football cause we are the only country that plays football and we call soccer soccer, but they call it football cause they don't have the american game and cause they use their feet mate.

Soccer was originally called football.....and it's called football just about everywhere else in the world.. but it was the Americans that changed the name of it to soccor... who the hell knows why... and then they developed their own version of football.. which really is more like rugby except football is more of a wimps sport whereas rugby is rugged.

American "football" = rugby for retards
Why? Well, they play for 5 seconds then spend 10 minutes trying to figure out what they are going to do next.

A waste of time...especially when you've got football a.k.a. soccer to watch instead.

I know I know, let's rename soccer(European football) "footsieball"
and just keep the name for the NFL game- football.
Now, we're both happy!
