The NFL just needs to invent a peace prize and present it to Trump, then he'll immediately change his tune and start insisting that FIFA changes their terminology to Soccer.

Omg. Did he say this after getting his participation trophy from FIFA?
Of course he did
By the end of the year they are gonna adopt the metric system!
(Now which organisation needs to invent a fake medal to get that done?)
Just need the ISO organization to give him some fake participation trophy and by God we can finally get rid of the stupid Fahrenheit and other shit

NFL becomes NHL, so we need a new name for hockey.
Hockey sticks moving the puck resemble brooms sweeping, so we could call it "Brooms," which leaves us with either NBA or MLB, so we need a new name for Basketball and/or Baseball.
Baseball could be called stickball, taking MLS so 'soccer' would need a new... Hey, that actually works out.
Curling would like a word
NHL will have to rename to National Blade Association (NBA), so we have to come up with something new for Basketball.
Canadians will fucking kill you deader then dead lol
The NFL doesn't need to drop the word "football" entirely, they just need to be more specific so there's no confusion. They could change their name to "Non-Soccer Football League", or NSFL for short.
Non-foot non-ball football league

Seriously?? That's the price of FIFA's bribe? Not, idk, "Call off your ICE ghouls at the next match, because we need to sell tickets?"
I'm pretty sure this is just another example of his current opinion or idea being the same as the last person he talked to.
This is one of the rare cases where I don't disagree with Trump.
But they could just call it what the rest of the world call their sport. "American Football".
It has their favorite word in it. America.
I don't disagree, it needs a different name, has not much to do with feet, but really? A trophy is enough of a bribe for him to upset his base of NFL fans? Can someone bribe him to get us on Metric system?
I hate that his fucking followers will be more angry about this than the fact that he raped kids on Epstein's island.
The fact that he parrots a good point that millions of other people have been saying for decades does not make him a smart man.
The fact that he does so at a podium in the most powerful position in the world does call into question his intelligence.
So thats why FIFA awarded him a peace price award that they made just for him and after this they asked him if he could force the NFL to use another name?🤣 brilliant.
It would be so fucking funny if this is the last straw for Americans and they finally rise up.
That would be hilarious. Please let him accomplish that and nothing else.
When he dies im gonna throw a party. I hate parties. But I hate him more
This is one of the things people don't get about trump supporters. Establishment politicians would never suggest such a thing. They stick to the established political crap. The you get a guy like trump who just spouts whatever he hears or thinks. Stuff like how it doesn't make sense that football is two drastically different sports. That is very appealing to a lot of people. He is saying the quiet parts out loud. He doesn't actually "do" anything productive about it. But it wins over plenty of voters. Also, he lies so poorly you easily know.
They've gotten too much shit actually renamed though. Denali, Gulf of Mexico, sort of the Department of Defense, Institute of peace.
They aren't gonna get anynone government contolled stuff renamed unless the owner is a real MAGA brown noser. The NFL isn't gonna do shit he wants. The owners have hated him since the 80s.
Why don't you just call NFL foot ball, soccer? No one else wants to use the name soccer so it's sort of free.
He was denied an ownership deal to a football team a long time ago and he's just getting revenge. That's what tin pot dictators do. There's also another thing they usually do...
He's always lazer focused on the most important issues facing americans.
Wow. So glad this is what’s on what’s left of his mind. Not soaring prices or atrocities committed in his name. No, this is what matters.
That's the unexpected right thing coming from Trump. Seriously, only Americans call a game played with hands "football" and a game played with feet "soccer." Come on Trump, next fix the measurements so Americans don't measure in pots and pans (or maybe it was cups and spoons) and thumbs and elbows (or maybe it was inches and feet).
The term “soccer” originated in the UK as a shortened slang for “assoc(iation) football”.
The US didn’t come up with that term, like almost everything else, they stole it from someone. Don’t blame the U.S. for the UKs habit of abbreviating stuff.
This is what happens when you only have a partial working brain and surround yourself with idiot cocksucking minions.
I can't wait until this fuckstain is dead, buried, and I'm taking a huge Taco Bell shit on his grave.
Trump is just angry at the nfl. Has been since the 80s. His tiny feelings are hurt he doesn’t own a team. And then he tried that USFL thing. Which, oddly, failed. After the USFL decided to move to a calendar in direct competition with the nfl at trumps urging. It failed, because of the decisions of Trump. Go figure. But he is just a sad angry little man who’s feelings are hurt.
Turning into the Mad King Trump. These absurd name changes and radical military actions like bombing boats and threatening Venezuela.
it was called soccer before it was called football in England
you will never get Americans to not call the ball a football and a soccer ball
