Doesn't Vinnie Jones hold the record for fastest red card?

I rather like Henrik Larsson

Vinnie Jones is the second most awesome celebrity in the world, right behind Christopher Walken.

Yeah. Soccer is known as "Football" basically everywhere but America.

I didn't click those links beforehand but I see that I may have misinterpreted what you meant by baller >_>

I can't remember the name, but I remember one game with Spain versus someone where one of the Spanish guys just dive grabbed the other dude's junk. It was a rewind-playback moment.

They call it American Football.

In foreign countries, you must put "American" before a word to show honor to it.

Now that this is officially turning into the 4chanesque Europe vs America trollfest, are we allowed to use the proper troll tools, such as Asinine America (http://memegenerator.net/Asinine-America)?

LOL Why is it called football when they play it with their hands and its an egg shape thingy?

Anyway my favorite footballer is Michael Owen (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Owen). I used to follow Liverpool as a kid but I just lost interest after a while.
That or Thierry Henry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thierry_Henry) because he troll'd all of Ireland with that hand ball. Everyone completely lost it.
It even led to this hilarious video

Forget the egg-shaped thingy. They even use their hands! Let's just call it Rugby so nobody else gets confused.

With their current form, I can see why. They depend WAY too much on Gerrard and Torres. But of course, that doesn't stop them from doing their best.



That or Thierry Henry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thierry_Henry) because he troll'd all of Ireland with that hand ball. Everyone completely lost it.


LOL! That goddamned handball! I have a feeling people won't be forgetting that one for a looooong time. Just like Maradona's famous Hand of God xDD (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argentina_v_England_(1986_FIFA_World_Cup_quarter-final)#.22Hand_of_God.22_goal)

My favourite footballer would be Lionel Messi (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lionel_Messi). It's such a treat to watch him dribble his way through a load of defenders! Kaka (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaká) is next. For obvious reasons.
But I just don't like Ronaldo at all. He gets frustrated too easily if you ask me.

As for goalkeepers, it's Iker Casillas (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iker_Casillas) the Spanish Captain and Julio Cesar (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Júlio_César_Jacobi) who plays for Brazil.

Wow, this is like saying "Italians make the best pizza (they actually don't, this is just a comparison), so why is it so popular in countries that don't?"

[DOOM!]

Soccer matches don't make a bit of difference guys, the balls are inert!
