Who's your favorite team? Got anything to say about football? Speak, fool!

To get things started, do you think its "football" or "soccer"? I think its football, but ever since I moved to USA from France, people get really confused when I say football instead of soccer.

There's American Football where they do a lot of throwing instead of kicking the football which is not round either. Say soccer in the USA, and people will work it out, but say football everywhere else.

Australia has Rugby League, Rugby Union and Australian Rules Football so it's even more confusing over here.
