Wouldn't that be Star Wars? :confused:

Star Wars ? With R2D2 and C3PO ? Ahahah. How can one be so ignorant of scifi culture. What's next ? Han Solo as captain of the Millenium Falcon and Spoke having pointy ears ?

The oddest thing about the word "soccer" to me is the Brits actually invented it and then moved on to use football later. In the US we had a football so the change never happened. FWIW, somehow the word "soccer" is a shortening of the word "association". I can't explain the leap between them but I'm an American so I don't have to.

We just call it "Wendy Ball" and leave it at that.

He called them baby books, but they were really instruction manuals for building psychopaths.

"Soccer" came from Oxford University students, shortening "association football". They also came up with "Rugger", shortening "rubgy football". Given both words came from what most normal Brits deem(ed) a snobbish institution in a period where association football was considered the "working men's game", it is not much of a surprise that it never caught on in the minds of the impoverished British labourers of the past. Even "Rugger" is rarely, if ever, used now - it is also widely considered a "toff" word..
