I don't mind them calling soccer football, I get it, they don't have real football, so that is fine. Basically they have poor man's football which means they don't have any pads and I get that to. You see these guys acting like someone killed them every time they fall down, they are worse than Lebron James. I wouldn't want a bunch of sissies playing real football either. And I get why you can't use hands, it is more inclusive, people without arms can play, you could never play American football with no arms. Probably something they had to do after all the wars they had in Europe.

Now the hard thing about football is not the offsides rule (in reality anyone who thinks they understand that rule is just kidding themselves). No the hard thing is to understand the leagues. You see the National league is not league football, they do that to completely throw off the Americans. Also League one is actually the third league and the championship league is for teams that are not champions. If you flunk out of the Premier league you wind up in the Championship league and if you flunk out of that then you are in the number one league. So obviously the fourth league is called the number two league, or league two.

Also they have a lot of ties in soccer sorry, I mean football. Some Americans have a problem with that but that isn't fair. We have the act of God ties in baseball (when a game is called due to the weather) and we have the sudden death ties in football (when it is still a tie after the overtime is over). In America we only have ties if it is an Act of God or someone dies, which explains why the Brits create a game filled with ties, just to infuriate Americans.

In contrast everything about American football makes sense, for example "America's team" is the team most people in America hate.

I'm English by birth and I don't enjoy football. By the way, the apparent pain of someone tackled is a ploy to get a free kick. Hollywood has nothing on some of the football players. They have shin pads, because, surprise surprise, it is football. Having been kicked in the shins as a schoolkid player, I can testify that it hurts.

American "football" is more like cross country MMA. It is even more boring to me than real football. It may appeal to those who enjoy organised violence masquerading as sport, but not to me.

soccer literally is football.
in American football, the ball is not handled with the feet which makes no sense.

Well we can't call it kick ball, that is already taken, same with hand ball.

Throw ball seems like a stupid name. Kill ball is not really accurate. If you want an accurate name call it Concussion ball, but that will probably discourage mothers from letting their kids play it.

You could also call it oblong ball.
 
In Trump's last term, record unemployment for all minorities. Inflation well under 2%. Good times. I was paying $1.69 a gallon for unleaded gas. I certainly didn't see underperformance.

Tell me, if you find this to be true, would you be outraged at democrats? Or would it be just too painful to admit you, and millions of other black Americans were duped?
Look for yourself.

GoogleQuestion: Were welfare benefits contingent on fathers and men being absent from the home?

Yes, during the 1970s, "man-in-the-house" rules meant welfare programs like Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) often required a father or a man to be absent from a household for a family to receive benefits
. Welfare workers conducted surprise home visits to look for evidence of a man's presence, such as his shoes or clothing. These visits were a form of surveillance and control designed to ensure families met the condition of having no man in the home, and a family's benefits would be terminated if a man was found to be living there.
  • Purpose: The "man-in-the-house" rule existed to deny benefits to families with a resident father, or any man living in the home, under the assumption that they were not a "dependent family".
  • Home visits: To enforce this rule, caseworkers would perform unannounced visits to check for any signs of a male presence, such as men's clothing, shoes, or toothbrushes.
  • Consequences: If a man was found to be in the home, even temporarily, the family's welfare benefits were at risk of being terminated. This often forced fathers to leave their homes so their families could receive essential support.
  • Impact: This policy disproportionately affected Black families and contributed to the breakdown of family structures, creating lasting damage and perpetuating stereotypes about Black fathers being absent.

Since your Orange Mussolini has been proven to be an unfit leader, your tactic is to try and make a case as to why the voting Republican is still better? You need to address all the flaws of the Republican party and the harm it has done. Especially under this administration.

Best country for what? Getting eaten by sharks?

Yep, definitely the best country to be eaten by sharks or to be killed by a jellyfish, or by a spider. Australia is number 1 in many categories. I think the australian women are champions at rugby, so when it comes to big strong women with broken noses and missing teeth, Australia is number 1.
