a plea from ignorance

No, I knew that would label me as a absolute fool on the global scale. Plus I'm not that ethnocentric. If we are the only ones to call it soccer, maybe we are the ones who are wrong. We had to call it something other than football once American Rules football got so popular. What do the Aussies and Kiwi's call it? Rugby? Australian Rules football?

I live probably 200 miles from Houston.

admins sometimes check IP locations but the lesser educated ones use the wrong software and end up with remote server locations...usually in the deserts somewhere....

its the email addys that tell the story but who cares.....I don't understand american football rules or baseball rules but I understand these....

Hello Erik. I sympathise. I haven't got a bloody clue about American football. I don't know the rules, the way they score, how you win, anything.

The Gillingham one.....FA Future.
The Arsenal one......FA Won.

I have coached baseball and football (American) on the high school level, would be happy to answer any questions y'all have about them. That is, assuming y'all are interested. Be nice to pay the courtesy forward.

I saw the Devil Ray - Yankee game last week. Proper eye opener, they know how to put on a night out
