IM Minh Le Obliterates a Titled Arena while Soccer Slowly Fades into Obscurity

11 players on each side = 22 soccer players
just about every other soccer player = eliminated from champs league
and chess players > soccer players
lol

I'm not getting the arrogance of the editor saying, soccer is correct football is wrong.
It's almost as if they are speaking from this mind control network over users of lichess and can rally other eggs to argue with a user who says they are arrogant, historically incorrect and so on.
Soccer is only used to avoid ambiguity with NFL. Football is the classical word and used everywhere except where NFL is also played, since they call NFL football there too.
In any case, I'm not here to take on the bots. I've been copying them, pairing them off against each other like this was another episode of Derren Brown Trick of the Mind. If anyone is to be called arrogant and correct, it should be me.

It is football, not soccer.

As a soccer fanatic (yes soccer not football :)) I found this blog post very funny. Thank you!

"The word "soccer" was used in this article instead of "football." This is because the word "soccer" is the correct one to describe the sport, in comparison to the word "football," which would be wrong."

No, dear editor !
In the whole world, everybody speaks about football except for some people in United States of America...that are not especially fond of , nor good at it, by the way. So football it is !

I, for one, disagree with both because football isn't wrong, it is just another way of saying soccer, I believe, and many people say "soccer" instead of "football", and pretty much no one really cares

> Fun fact, American football was invented by the Native Americans and later developed into the sport it is today! Please stop running your mouth about our country, Im sick of you Europeans constantly badmouthing us regardless of how often our country helps, protects and supports you in any and every way we can! thank you.

You know what I'm sick of? The fact that not only, one, everyone is arguing about the football/soccer dilemma, and probably not for the first time, (The US uses soccer, the rest of the world uses football, end of story!), but, two, some SUPER clever person in the forums is going to nitpick on where I placed my comma, or my "excessive" (not) use of exclamation marks! (That's a bit extreme, but you get the point.)

Let me guess the soccer ball?
And also how is it chicken ball?!

No, sorry its not so clear to you, i guess not everyone can explain in ways that anyone can understand. But let me try: th point is that when you type "football", a football appars. I hope that clears thing out for you
