If you think eggs are shaped like a football, you’re an idiot – the kind of idiot who thinks no one in soccer ever uses their hands.

Are you trolling? That’s the goalkeeper. It’s one person on the field, who can only move insde a small square. He doesn’t even count.
“You use your feet in soccer! Well, except that one guy, he doesn’t count! No, don’t look at him!”
Kinda ironic making that argument right after asking if he was trolling….
-Lets start with soccer, soccer comes from Association Football (which came from England), and then is shortened to become Soccer in the 1880’s(from the 3rd,4th and 5th letter in ‘Association’). So at that time, you could just choose whether to call it Soccer or Football (American Football wasn’t invented yet at that time). It’s just a coincidence that the majority of people in the U.S decided to call it Soccer, thus, the term Soccer is passed down and everyone started to use term Soccer and the term Football became less popular.
-American Football-
This one is a bit confusing because American Football came from Rugby and I don’t know why they wanted to used the ‘forgotten’ alternative for the term Soccer as the name for their new sport. Maybe it’s because the alternative name for Soccer is kinda suitable for American Football, so they just decided to use it. Maybe.
-Handegg-
A term people use to mock American Football because the use Football as the name of the sport and most of the time they use their hands and not their feet and they don’t use a round like object as their ball (ball is mostly referred to something that is round) but an egg-like shaped one. And some people say “It’s not shaped like an egg, eggs a mostly rounded!!11!!one!1!!”. The major point they say it’s an egg is because you call ‘American Football’ Football but it fact you don’t use a ball (a rounded shaped object). So Handeggshapedlikeobject > Handegg.
-The fact that the Goalkeeper uses his hand so why can’t football be mocked as Handball.
It’s because only one person on the team can touch the ball and the other 10 cannot, so Football is the more suitable name.
-The fact that some Footballers dive
It’s because they wanted to win. And some pussys would cheat to be given a penalty or so that the other team is given a card. They’re desperate cunts. Desperate to win. Every sport has those type of bastards. Maybe we don’t see diving in American Football because you’re wearing armor and a helmet so it makes you look like a pussy if you dive.
Case Closed.
Doesn’t count? Are you serious? The goalie is the most important person on the team! If you don’t think so, try playing without one and then try saying “he doesn’t count” again. 😛
Goalkeepers can only use their hands and arms inside their penalty box, but can travel all the way to the other team’s goal if they really wanted to.
That said, reposting an old (and silly) argument is getting really old.
Last I checked, an egg is shaped a lot more like an American “football”. And not round like an actual football. But, maybe I am eating mutated eggs.
This post is FAIL.
Most eggs of most species look round like a sphere. Only certain species of bird eggs (like the iconic chicken) actually have an elongated shape. It seems closed-minded to only refer to a certain variety of egg even though it is a clear minority. Besides absolutely no eggs have pointed ends like an American football.
How about this….. SHUT UP ALREADY!
Hand egg has Simpsons hands.

HA!Number 52 proves you wrong!
Finally! Some sanity!
Word to the wise: stay out of opinionated discussions like this.
Pointless and waste of time. Nobody ever agrees. That is all.
Quit bitching about what is the better sport. Although soccer is shit in America, it’s the number one sport in the world.
but America is better that the whole world (including America) put together, so your little obscure sport can keep on sucking balls
The argument made by this post is fundamentally flawed.
being out of context, the photo’s should actually be labeled
“foot egg” and “hand ball”. Proper labeling would be “football” vs “futbol”. I think the biggest difference is when a mistake is made in “futbol”, the guy who made the mistake is shot by his own country. Now THAT is motivation.
In “football” when someone shoves you a little you don’t fall over and act like your leg is broken.
Ask Thierry Henry !!!
And the americans pull the “I know you are but what am I” card with a dose of self-righteous rage what a suprise!!!
But… it IS football. You kick a ball with your foot. There are two instances where you pick up the ball. American ‘Football’ has like, three of four instances where you kick the ‘ball’. All the other time it’s throwing and catching the egg-shaped ball. Therefore, it’s Football and HandEgg – Logic.
