There aren’t any rugs used in rugby, either.
And “cricket?” They would be crushed instantly.
I don’t see any keys in hockey either.
Don’t even get me started on bowling.
Let’s talk about bad-mint-on.
Softball? It ain’t soft!
What? The first pic is clearly a game of soccer
The guy in the second picture is an NFL quarterback. They get paid a LOT of money to play this game, which makes this his job!
By your logic, he’s using his hands to perform his job. I guess that makes it a hand job.
I thought you were going to make some Lemmy typical off-topic political point at first, but you had me chuckling at the end.
What an original joke
Brilliant!
It wouldn’t be such a tired cliché if Americans were not insisting on ownership of “football” without the qualification “American”. Nobody makes fun of Australian rules football, Canadian football or Gaelic football, because they don’t claim the generic term football to the exclusion of what the vast majority of the world calls football.
There are conflicting explanations of the origin of the word “football”. It is widely assumed that the word “football” (or the phrase “foot ball”) refers to the action of the foot kicking a ball. There is an alternative explanation, which is that football originally referred to a variety of games in medieval Europe that were played on foot. There is no conclusive evidence for either explanation.
That’s so convoluted even NASA boffins that ARE able to correctly convert from imperial to metric and land things on Mars got confused.
What sort of eggs are that shape? And why have they never been introduced to the Lilliputians?

It is still a ball.
It’s Hand Ball.
And Handball, well really that’s a FUTure sport. We’ll call it…Futball!
Yes, and horse racing is called “fast glue.” I’d post the old 4chan pic of them all but some are kinda offensive.
That’s- that’s an arm.
Handegg or armegg. Both are equally close to being as suitable for the sport as football.
Handeggery with ads.
Feet ball is where the footjobs really happen.
I’ll give you handegg but the other one looks more like groundball
I spend thousand of dollars per year on American Football games and I would be totally down with hand egg branding.
