This will be what gets him shot.

Where’s the missing piece of ear?? Can’t find it, right?

If he really got shot in the ear there should be a chuck misting from the top rim but it’s clean as a baby orangutan's ass.

Cartilage doesn't regrow.

[-] Serinus@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

He was shot? I don't remember that.

He was shot near, maybe.

[-] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Nah he's gone after the NFL before. He's a pedophile convicted felon, I don't think his dumb musing about football will be his downfall.

[-] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

He wasn't shot. His guard hip checked his head mid tackle. That's why they had to get a second opinion from their favorite lying doctor before releasing the medical report.

[-] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago

this is football, there is no question. We have to come up with another name for the other one.

I suggest remaining American football to "rugby for pansies".

Or maybe "handegg".

On a side note, this seems like a great way for him to piss off a big chunk of his voter base.

[-] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Rugby players don't get hit like football players do. The lack of padding changes the game.

[-] MurrayL@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Most people who mock American football as ‘rugby for wusses’ (or similar) don’t even know how the game works, let alone what the legitimate differences are.

[-] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 month ago

In fact handegg players are more likely to suffer serious injuries because of it AFAIK. Particularly brain damage.

[-] FEIN@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

"rugby for pansies" until you get CTE or some irreversible brain injury...

[-] EndlessNightmare@reddthat.com 20 points 1 month ago

Hahaha! FIFA game him a peace prize to get this to happen.

This timeline is ridiculous.

[-] drmoose@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I'm surprised it took that long. Football is missing one of the biggest markets in the world and they'd award that dumbass with a trophy daily if that got them any closer to football in the US.

[-] Bot@sub.community 18 points 1 month ago

Now he annoyed his voters I think

[-] ouRKaoS@lemmy.today 15 points 1 month ago

Gridiron.

It's known as Gridiron Football already, just use the other half...

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

While we are at it we should rename the hundreds of cities named the same as European cities. Maybe even consider renaming Georgia, why would they want to be named after King George

[-] winkerjadams@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

Don't forget all of new england

[-] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Georgia is also a country. Gets confusing because some Americans will tell your their state when asked where they're from, even when overseas. I've complimented someone who'd said they're from Georgia on their English before.

(On a side note, can you imagine travelling to the US, being asked where you're from, then going 'oh I'm from alto adige originally')

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Georgia? You mean Russia? /s. Sorry, figured we'd have a nice Russian invasion joke.. come to think of it, not a good joke. Just a shit country invading borders

I fucking hate that I actually agree with the fat child rapist. I'm now going to go and scrub my skin off with bleach!!

[-] Voroxpete@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

If it helps, he doesn't actually believe this, or care either way, he's just extremely bribable.

[-] ryathal@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

He also has a grudge against the NFL because Jerry Jones kept him from getting a team.

[-] MyOpinion@lemmy.today 11 points 1 month ago

I am recommending we call it concussion ball.

[-] Daerun@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

I can't believe he said something the entire world outside US agree with 🤣

[-] VlerrieBR@lemmy.world -1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

He saya quite a few things we agree on, and surely there should be for you as well, but hatred blinds.

[-] Holytimes@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

He's bribed to say things people agree with otherwise no he says nothing any sane reasonable person agree with like ever.

[-] VlerrieBR@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Like I said: blinded. Any 2 people in the world no matter their differences agree on something.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 9 points 1 month ago

also the head of the football commision, of fifa, gave him him a "fifa peace prize"

[-] thenoirwolfess@lemmynsfw.com 6 points 1 month ago

I guess that's another tally for the times Trump has said something I agree with

[-] Quilotoa@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago

He's absolutely right. And while we're at it, can we rename the "World" Series?

[-] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

Canada has a team in the league. It counts.

[-] Quilotoa@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

So, the National Basketball League of Australia could call their championship the World Cup of Basketball? It has two countries in it.

[-] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

Anyone can call anything anything they want! Names mean fuck all

[-] Johnmannesca@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago
[-] Supervisor194@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago
[-] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

We can call it the NHL. Perfect!

[-] MiddleAgesModem@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

We all know he wants to call it "Trump Ball". Hell, why only replace one word, let's call the game "Trump Trump".

[-] _Nico198X_@europe.pub 4 points 1 month ago

Rugby or Gridiron would be great!

otherwise i hate everything about this. i need to take a break from football because FIFA is just too overtly disgusting lately.

[-] adespoton@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

US football dispensed with most of the rules of international rugby years ago. Gridiron would make sense though.

[-] limelight79@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

So now we do care what other countries think?

[-] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

He should rename "the gulf of America" back to "the gulf of mexico" while he's at it

[-] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago
[-] phutatorius@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

This is because FIFA just sucked him off.

[-] Lodespawn@aussie.zone -1 points 1 month ago

Piss off Trump, Aussie Rules is football and nothing else, soccer will always be soccer.

[-] Lodespawn@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago

Although .. to be fair Aussie Rules can also be just Footy.

[-] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 1 points 1 month ago

Except it references within its name that it's a sub group of football.
