they codified the rules with the football association. wikipedia is cool man, give it a try sometime

>Go back to playing faggot shit like rugby
What does that make your 'football'? Considering that's just rugby for the handicapped
Evan Cruz
>soccer >sport
Pick 1 and only one
Jaxson Moore
Codification =/= inventing a sport
Germany has more to do with football than England does, at least in the minds of most Americans
Oliver Garcia
ah, so you aren't even trying. at least make it worth my effort dude
Thomas Flores
>China and Mexico invented the sport >both are absolute shit at it
Wyatt White
How does it feel that we invented your language too?
How does it feel to know everyone around the world speaks American English?
Jason Nguyen
England invented it.
A guy playing rugby decided to start kicking the ball instead and it caught on as football.
I heard this story in a museum
Jeremiah Brooks
Mexicans and chinks kicking dead babies around the village doesn't actually count as football.
Ayden Clark
What does codifying a sport have to do with inventing it?
Trust me, even if England didn't codify it, the sport would still exist. There have been reports in the 1500 and 1600s of various countries playing this kind of football already
It's not that hard to understand. Take that English dick out your mouth
Blake Martinez
you're trying too hard lad
Aaron Howard
I challenge anyone to name a better English player than Chicarito
Michael Robinson
The Mexican games looked nothing like "football"
No idea about China, but it was probably fairly different as well, and it's sure as shit not like it was Chinese merchants, students, clergy, etc. that were going around spreading their version of the game in the late 19th century.
Colton Gomez
if you take away their false sense of superiority what do they have left? Do you like to hurt special kids?
Eli Peterson
It's kinda true though
Anyone learning English around the world learns American English
Jeremiah Robinson
>Americans play football with hands
Isaiah Lewis

Michael Gray
Confirmed for never having left USA Everyone else speaks Commonwealth English, it's only really your country which doesnt
Colton Hernandez
literally the entire team, he's a literally who chicano manlet
Nolan Garcia
As much as I hate England football wise you have to be literally delusional to claim they didn't invent modern football.
Jason Jones
Also >we codified our own version of the language so therefore we invented it >England codified football? That means fuck all it was already invented before that
Parker Martinez
Yeah Canada and Australia speak British English
Aaron Phillips
wrong
American English is normal to me.
Limey English sounds really weird, gay and nasal.
And no one cares what Pajeets and Pakis speak like.
Elijah Gray
Accent means nothing about the language you dumb fuck, it's how it's written not how it sounds
Jaxon Parker
nobody uses british english outside the UK.
colour, favourite etc all look extremely ridiculous to us continental europeans.
we also dont use crisps to talk about chips. we call em chips.
literally nobody uses british english, and we literally cannot even understand what most brits say. literally no continental european who isnt used to scotts/scousers will understand them, but its easy for us to understand americans.
you are the cancer ruining the langauge
Adam Gomez
kek, the worst one is "diarrhoea"
Noah Hall
no, the real cancer are the faggots who can't think of any other words than 'literally', and even then you can't use the word correctly
You must literally be brain dead if you think people are going to get confused if I write colour but not color
Blake Walker
Have you ever traveled abroad? No one uses UK English.
Just like how no one associates soccer with the UK
Christian Thompson
>All the delicious butthurt when england wins
Jose Taylor
Wow who cares
They're still a worse team than most Latin American teams
Me and my friends could beat England
Christian Lee
You seem frustrated m8. Did a unilad cuck you or something? Trying a bit too hard here, think you need to calm down.
Levi Walker
I've travelled to every continent and fuck loads of countries (not bragging, just answering) and there are always remnants of British English
Admittedly the odd American word falls through but that's what happens when all their media in the language is from USA, but no one can say that no one understands how I talk, that's just retarded
Alexander Gray
Fuck off its not like you are better
William Barnes
based Peru
Juan Cook
The Brits played ball sports since antiquity. Rugby, Golf, American Football, and Hockey all come from the Brits (including Irish)
Parker Wood
>yfw a british lad goes to the US and gets poontang purely because of their voice
Aaron Bennett
why do are Americans on Sup Forums always nasty to Brits when I like the Americans and am nice to you :(
Lincoln Ward
>including the Irish
Fuck you. Ireland has nothing to do with the U.K.
And just because they play something doesn't mean they invented it. I haven't seen one shred of evidence that England did anything for soccer aside from codifying it (which would've happened eventually by China, Mexico, France, Germany etc.)
Liam Hall
Another glorious cuju victory for England today.
Xavier Ramirez
>Ireland has nothing to do with the U.K. Yanks are this delusional
Parker Watson
>What does codifying a sport have to do with inventing it? A lot actually
Tyler Powell
He's probably one of the Jewish MUH GERMAN-AMERICAN types
Brandon Ross
The majority of European countries teach British English
Jace Kelly
You have to born in the USA to be a Chicano fucking idiot
Isaac Richardson
>it's sure as shit not like it was Chinese merchants, students, clergy, etc. that were going around spreading their version of the game in the late 19th century. Too busy getting BTFO in opium wars and then getting BTFO during the boxer rebellion
Julian Anderson
> Fuck you. Ireland has nothing to do with the U.K. There are written records of football being played while Ireland was under British rule.
You are a fucking retard.

SPORT
Jonathan Jones
I'm Irish
We have nothing to do with England
David Hill
Yes, I'm sure it wasn't uncommon for people to kick things around with their feet.
But the rules of the football we played were codified in England. Get rekt faggot.
Rugby = rugby FOOTBALL i.e. the rules of football that Rugby school played. There were lots of different codes of football.
Hunter Johnson
>I'm Irish AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA
John Garcia
Yeah you do, you're our cucked bitch And don't you ever forget it
Levi Jones
Shitty thread, dude. Move on.
Jonathan Reyes
>WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
John Roberts
This is true mate, they actually teach us to NOT speak like americans and all "listening" exercices are in British/Irish English
Benjamin Cooper
>me and my friends could beat England in a pie eating contest
Landon Butler
>codifying a sport have to do with inventing it?
everything. just like we refer to your football as American football, because you codified that way of playing the game. Aussie Rules football is an Australian sport, because they codified it. Gaelic football is Irish, because they codified it.
Any sport can be reduced to throwing, kicking, hitting, punching and said that it has precursors elsewhere, so fucking what?
Bentley Davis
What is "American English" exactly?
Wyatt Brown
>cucked bitch Rooney, Hart, and Cahill are Irish.
Dier = German
Lallana = Continental
The Rest = Black
> cucked
Zachary Bailey
It's the same thing with how they pretend to be good at it too
Nathan Flores
I find it interesting how similar Mexico soccer fans and England are. We all know that they think they are hot shit in group stages rekking small countries only to geT BTFO by Argentina/Germany in knockout rounds.
Justin Price
It's more like old English, due to the printing presses, continentals spelled words with a U like colour or behaviour whereas the Americans continued to spell them without a U
Andrew Ross
Take english Spell it incorrectly Pass it off as a new language
Mason Hernandez
wow by your logic cavemen kicking stones between sticks invented football
retard
Jonathan Mitchell
Look, kicking a ball about and getting it in some sort of goal has probably been around for thousands of years. Nobody can possibly know who truly invented it. When it comes to who started the sport of association football as it's known today though, we invented it, and that's just a fact.
Lincoln Davis
It's the other way around you dipshit.
Dominic Gray
I'm not talking about the team though, I'm talking about the country
We have you on a leash like the dog you are, pipe down or we'll stop feeding you again
Jayden Flores
The Chinks are notorious liars about their history. They claim they invented the camera before farming was invented and porcelain before modern man evolved. Theres a reason they are seriously tight about allowing foreign historians and archaeologists into the country. Don't Believe Yellow lies.
Jacob Sanders
Faggots in this thread think that when the English claim to have invented football (i.e. association football, which we did) that we are claiming to have invented the motion of kicking something with our feet for fun.
Julian Roberts
Why can't we all be friends no matter where we're from? :)
Ethan Moore
You are both right tb h. We study "british" english in school, but everyone just ends up speaking the "american" english in the end. The American influence and culture us just too huge
Andrew Flores
>We have you on a leash like the dog you are, pipe down or we'll stop feeding you again
One word

Ian Edwards
Watch your mouth lad, wouldn't want another Bloody Sunday We wouldn't want to waste our bullets again
Christian Evans
>These ABE threads that pop up everytime England win
>Records trace the history of soccer back more than 2,000 years ago to ancient China. Greece, Rome, and parts of Central America also claim to have started the sport; but it was England that transitioned soccer, or what the British and many other people around the world call “football,” into the game we know today. The English are credited with recording the first uniform rules for the sport, including forbidding tripping opponents and touching the ball with hands.

Is running a sport? No, no it's not. Running is an activity. The marathon is a sport, the 100m sprint is a sport, with defined rules and goals.
Kicking a ball is not a sport, it's an activity, an "exercise". Football is a sport, which was invented by British people.
Nolan Martinez
people just speak american english because brits don't like when we talk like them
Zachary Young
Uhh what kind of Brazilian person thinks football was invented by the Brits?
Most Brazilian people I know think Brazil invented it
Samuel Wright
they obviously didn't invent kicking a spherical object or earning points for doing so, that's probably older than shitting, but they made the rules we use today
it's not that hard to understand
Evan Carter
Yeah, that's why Brits are so good at football then?
Get the fuck out of here
Jayden Walker
are you sure they aren't just dumb Amerilards?
Jackson Phillips
you are far too fat for that jamal, or are you one of the chicanos that post about how good chicarito is even when he's trash and has nothing to do with the thread?
Juan Collins
>A FUCKING WHITE
Henry Scott
I'm a Chicano.
England has nothing to do with the invention of football. We've been playing it longer than anyone else has
Jason Phillips
>Americans taking a break from being retarded by only pretending to be retarded
Never gets old
Josiah Nguyen
what's that got do with inventing the rules of the sport fattie
Benjamin Wilson
feel free to take credit for kicking a round object around, I don't care about some subhuman brown people kicking a dog turd around in their favela's. we codified the rules and formed the first league, so people class us as inventing the sport. maybe if your ancestors had spent more time doing things properly you wouldn't have had to leave your own country because the cartel wouldn't stop stuffing cocaine up your mums arse
Caleb Rivera
Fucking gold
Julian Rodriguez
Stay jelly, m8. Even the great American sport of baseball is an English game.
Chase Campbell
Girls still play a variation of it in school, they call it Rounders though
Ryan Smith
The rules don't make the sport you stupid spic

Rounders >>> baseball
Andrew Bailey
Mexico is better than England
Brandon Fisher
Fucking around with a ball =/= Football

i like you guys and i'm grateful for the help you've given me understanding soccer concepts and rules, i like helping interested brits with baseball and football the same way. i'll actually be attending a premier league game in the fall
