In our country we don't speak english so your comment was kind of weird ;P

I get really confused sometimes because I mostly talk to americans when on the internet, so it gets kind of boring reminding them that the name of the sport is Football and not Soccer. But it's kind of weird saying they should rename it now, since they've been using the name for like 100 years now. Makes no sense arguing about this :/ but it gets kind of boring hearing americans saying soccer it's the right name for the sport, when they didn't even invent it.

The real football is the one born in Europe, with one messia for it: Zidane. The second one born in USA, is not a sport to me, more like a show. Sorry to tell you that.
Anyway i think if one should change, it would be US one's as it's not the older one. A name for it "Advertize Ball", "Business Ball" or "Break Ball" would be good i guess regarding to the way it's practiced.
