    In American Football the ball is only kicked with the foot about a dozen times in the whole game. Hardly enough to justify the term.

    I am British and have never played "soccer", we play football. Some other countries eg USA play sports with "football" in the name of their game.

    You call it regular football, but the rest of the world knows it as either American football or Gridiron. Or I know it as boredom that I don't know the rules of.
