Why in america do they call Football Soccer? and American Football Football when you mainly use your hands? And why do they call it like a world series or what ever for basball and american football when really its just america and occasionaly japan? This is confusing...

Is this a comon question with comon answers or is it one of those mysteries of life?

Not sure about the footbal thing,

But world series came from the newspaper that sponsored the championship way back then - "The World"

Gargoyle factoid of the month :)
