Hi Guys,
Why is everyone calling it Futbol anway?
It s the plain translation of the original name Voetbal in Dutch, Fussball in
German. But it aint clear why the hack Americans call a rugby like and related
game Football. I think its an historical mistake.
In Europe we call it American Football.
I know - how do you build a stadium?
Use a lot of bricks and you imagination
Greetings and keep building
Nico
