The NFL just needs to invent a peace prize and present it to Trump, then he’ll immediately change his tune and start insisting that FIFA changes their terminology to Soccer.
Omg. Did he say this after getting his participation trophy from FIFA?
Of course he did
NFL Peaciest Prize for Bestest Person, gotta one up FIFA
By the end of the year they are gonna adopt the metric system!
(Now which organisation needs to invent a fake medal to get that done?)
ISO I believe
Or BIPM
But space is so much cooler in the imperial system!
Only one of these pictures is real, and only one system is used for space stuff in reality
Just need the ISO organization to give him some fake participation trophy and by God we can finally get rid of the stupid Fahrenheit and other shit
You can have the Fahrenheit temperature scale when you peel it from my cold, dead hands. Metric is great for measuring size and weight and I suppose distance (though miles sounds so much nicer than kilometers), but the Celsius scale is too short until you get into really high temperatures.
Like an amp that you can turn up to 11
0 as freezing isn’t bad, but boiling at 100 feels wrong. It’s not enough of a difference. Fahrenheit’s number values may be a little wonky and arbitrary seeming but it gives a better sense of scale.
Which is 99% due to you being used to that.
And I’m sure you are correct about that, but I acclimated to metric measurement for both length and temp at work. Measuring size is just better that way and I’ve abandoned imperial entirely even for home projects, and the temperatures we deal with at work are big, so the Celsius scale fits. Maybe I compartmentalized, IDK.
Third down and 3 meters to go!
Kicking a 20 meter field goal.
Perfect.
Sad but true, Americans will only do the right thing if they get some benefit, if you give them money. Trump is just the embodiment of everything American. That’s why some Americans love him, some hate him.
Hey hey. 1 - it’s not all americans. 2 - it is not a uniquely American thing. You don’t see many “poor” poloticians for a reason.
It’s true, not all americans and it is not uniquely american thing. But it is a predominant american thing in general and nobody expect different behaviour. Just like “americans are good basketball players”. Not all, not uniqiely but when america (USA) is playing you expect that they will win.
True, america draws that kind of person. So they come here from all over. And the system here is designed to help them.

NFL becomes NHL, so we need a new name for hockey.
Hockey sticks moving the puck resemble brooms sweeping, so we could call it “Brooms,” which leaves us with either NBA or MLB, so we need a new name for Basketball and/or Baseball.
Baseball could be called stickball, taking MLS so ‘soccer’ would need a new… Hey, that actually works out.
Major League Football (MLF)
I love MLFs
No, no. MLS becomes the NFL so there’s no confusion that it’s football.
Curling would like a word
What is a “hockey” anyway
NHL will have to rename to National Blade Association (NBA), so we have to come up with something new for Basketball.
Basketball was invented using peach baskets. So the NBA will have to become the National Fruitball League (NFL)
Basketballs are round, so maybe just National Roundball Association, or NRA.
I have unironically called basketball roundball for over 3 decades.
Sports are practically a religion in this country and I hate religion.
Canadians will fucking kill you deader then dead lol
And apologize the whole time they are doing it.
😭
turn the NFL to NHEL, case closed.
Floor egg.
Lycra Rugby
The NFL doesn’t need to drop the word “football” entirely, they just need to be more specific so there’s no confusion. They could change their name to “Non-Soccer Football League”, or NSFL for short.
😒 NFL football
🤩 NSFW football
😒 NSFL football
I’m trying to think what NSFW football would be like. They have some very NSFW wrestling videos out there.
The LFL (Lingerie Football League) was pretty close. Apparently they’re reviving it
Yeah, that was pretty soft. I guess it was not suitable for many workplaces, but not universally so.
Non-foot non-ball football league
Sometimes-Foot-But-Mostly-Hands Ball-Related Running And Tumbling League
So many NSFL events in schools all year, that big annual NSFL event in a bowl watched my millions, all the advertisers sponsoring NSFL stuff, etc.
National 30.48cm Ball League
Or Not Safe For Life
I think that’s apt
tbitbh
They can just call it American Football like everyone already does.
NAFL or whatever, if you really need an acronym. No one calls the Bundesliga BL.
Grid Iron League Football
Bruh
American Rugby
Just with the full body kevlar armour like a bunch of sissies.
Sissy Rugby
I’d say not as much sissies, more moronic cavemen who don’t know how not to hurt themselves or each other.
Are the pads kevlar? I thought they were mostly just plastic.
There’s absolutely no reason to put Kevlar in football pads. Against blunt impacts, it’s no more protective than any other cloth, and a whole lot more expensive. They’re just using the term to be dramatic.
It’s a mix of HDPE outer and EVA inner.
Seriously?? That’s the price of FIFA’s bribe? Not, idk, “Call off your ICE ghouls at the next match, because we need to sell tickets?”
I’m pretty sure this is just another example of his current opinion or idea being the same as the last person he talked to.
I’m sorry but this is important
It would be so fucking funny if this is the last straw for Americans and they finally rise up.
Supposedly, a lot of “real Americans” ditched the NFL the last few years. He might need to go after NASCAR and NHL too.
Gets a bribe from fifa, “we need to change the name of this sportsing”
For a moment I thought he was having a rare moment of clarity, but no, he was having a common moment of corruption
Trump has always been hurt that he couldn’t buy a sports team. He tried to buy the Buffalo Bills years ago but it failed.
And the reason he couldn’t have a team? Because all the other rich owners, the guys whose club he so desperately wants to be a part of, hate his guts, and want nothing to do with him, so they’ve iced him out of pro team ownership for DECADES.
No it was because they suspected he had mob ties and was lying about his wealth.
That’s definitely PART of the reason they hate him, although you could probably say the same things about most of those owners.
I think a bigger reason is that he’s just a massive Putz, and nobody can stand to be around him unless they absolutely have to. They don’t want to have him in the owners suite on draft day, running his big mouth, demanding loyalty and respect from everybody, etc. The guy sucks ALL the oxygen from every room he enters, and narcissistic billionaires aren’t real big on sharing the spotlight, especially with a massive dickhead like Trump.
They can approve a guy they like, or Trump. Anyone would choose the friend.
This is one of the rare cases where I don’t disagree with Trump.
But they could just call it what the rest of the world call their sport. “American Football”.
It has their favorite word in it. America.
You mean hand egg?
Plump rump.
The actual name for it is “Gridiron football” or Gridiron for short.
I had to scroll way too far to see this comment.
I would agree with you and Trump. The only problem is that Trump is just saying that because he has been recently awarded a prize by FIFA.
I don’t disagree, it needs a different name, has not much to do with feet, but really? A trophy is enough of a bribe for him to upset his base of NFL fans? Can someone bribe him to get us on Metric system?
Handegg?
I second Handegg.
Third World Ball Chase. And it won’t be offensive because we a third world now too.
Handegg, obviously.
I love this. But I feel like Handoval might go over better
I hate that his fucking followers will be more angry about this than the fact that he raped kids on Epstein’s island.
Well because he snaps his fingers and says it is a hoax. His followers just blindly trust anything he says.
Obama would have been immediately impeached for saying this.
So thats why FIFA awarded him a peace price award that they made just for him and after this they asked him if he could force the NFL to use another name?🤣 brilliant.
I knew there’d be something. Bingo bongo.
National Bingo Bongo League? NBBL? It has a ring to it.
Hey, that wasn’t even intentional. Accidental genius.
He was denied an ownership deal to a football team a long time ago and he’s just getting revenge. That’s what tin pot dictators do. There’s also another thing they usually do…
I think he was just giving a soccer peace prize by FIFA, this is just him doing one of his favors back, lol.
