Is there football in the olympics? I mean football as 'american football'? I saw the list of sports but didn't see it there... I wonder why? :think: Maybe because America is the only one who likes it the most? lol The rest of the world likes Football (Soccer), but for some reason the United States (most of it anyway) doesn't get into it... they even have a different name for it compared to the rest of the world. Some say that they don't like it because it's boring... but I've been in a soccer team and it's not boring at all... you are constantly moving and watching, guarding, etc... it can be tiring also if you play a foward position....

I don't think American football has ever been an Olympic sport. It's played in the U.S. and Canada, and there are some European teams, but it's never enjoyed worldwide popularity in anything near the way that soccer has.
I love soccer. When it's played well, I think it's a beautiful sport to watch.

I saw a documentary they had on the world cup 2006... it was really cool to watch those moments again. I was sooo happy that Italy won.
Next it's 2010 in South Africa. It'll be another crazy event. Viva Futbol!
