    Hello everyone,
    I am also new here. Looks like a great website and forum to belong to, so I'm looking forwrd to reading and communicating with everyone. One of my biggest hobbies is following soccer. Never really knew why we call it soccer here in the U.S., strange name and why do we call (american) football actually football when you rarely use your feet. Anyway, I live in Michigan and can't wait for the warmer weather to get here so we can play some soccer outside and get off the turf in the warehouse.

    Big welcome to FWT community from Belgium.
    I guess it's called football, because they use their feet to run.
    But still football would be a better name for soccer. American football looks more like fightball or runball.
