Perhaps the easiest way to determine who has the right to call their sport "Football"

I've been told that Gridiron is called football because the ball's length was a foot.

 

[Swift]

Yeah, I'm with Danny. Gridiron sounds stupid as fuck. Playing ON the gridiron makes more sense to me, but even then.. eh

I'm aware, but NO ONE ever says i'm going to play grid iron. It's the field type, not the sport. Do you guys say, going to play pitch? No, no one says that shit.
@Dolph'sZiggler back me up

I just laugh when they say that. they can call it grab ass for all I care, fuck non Americans they do not matter to me

How is American football the real football, when 80% of the planet considers the one actually played with your feet the real deal?
It does not make a lick of sense.

That would mean that I could create my own version of baseball in Sweden and take the name baseball as my own and yours would be fake/the non-real version.
