I'm not sure about other places calling soccer "football". It's possible, I suppose. Other places or countries have different ways of doing things that are traditions, etc., just like we in the USA do. I'll look into that and see what I can find.
Getting back to other sports for a moment though, is anyone else watching and waiting for Barry Bonds to hit the BIG home run score that will tie or pass the current record (set last by Hank Aaron, I believe but could be mistaken on that). I've seen on the news where they have been waiting for days for him to make this special home run and I don't think it has happened yet, although it should be betting very close.
They showed folks in kayaks (boats) out in the lake waiting just in case the ball comes in that direction. Sounds silly in a way, but then They told about some guy that recovered a ball hit there for some other special record years ago and the guy wound up selling that special ball and making a great deal of money off of it.
Where's my boat!
