does not matter if the monarchy has no real power. they are still a monarchy. its just like the present of the us has no real power. he simply is the messenger for the people in the back... the monarchy has more power than your leader in that aspect actually because they have the money to build power if they want.

"Canada is a federal state that is governed as a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy, with Queen Elizabeth II as its head of state."

Last time I checked, QEII was the queen of england. So, you loose. Haha

so the bottom line is i have the right to tell you that football is the correct term as well as adam. good to know.

No. you dont, The bottom line was you butted in with a stupid comment and then proceeded to make no sence in trying to make your argument

BTW, Soccer is Awful. Next to hockey its the worst sport ever played by a human being, and defintly isnt worth watching On TV.
Football on the other hand over there is badass, and quiet enjoyable to watch on TV

Richard, Richard, Richard.

England didn't copy the American form of government.  Parliament is composed of the House of Lords and the House of Commons.  The idea of representative government dates back to the Magna Carta in 1215, which Richard the Lionhearted's little brother, King John acquiesed to.

The Monarchy is a vital part of the English Government.  We are the voice of experience.  The present Queen has met with every American President since Eisenhower.  She has had 11 Prime Ministers.  There is a lifetime of experience in gently dealing with political situations of all kinds.  She is the one who is the voice of the people, always expressing the concerns and cares of her loyal subjects to the Prime Minister.

Football has always been called Football in Great Britain.  America is the only major country to call it soccer.

Football has always been called Football in Great Britain.  America is the only major country to call it soccer.
And the etymology of the term soccer goes back to the English abbreviating the term Association Football which was used to distinguish soccer from the more interesting sport of Rugby. England is the country that originally called it soccer. If the English don't like that word being used here they should take issue with those of their ancestors who coined the term rather than people over here still using it. http://www.uponmyword.com/football-v-soccer-or-the-etymology-of-soccer (http://www.uponmyword.com/football-v-soccer-or-the-etymology-of-soccer) I don't really care if the English say "bonnet" when referring to the "hood" of a car or "take away" rather than "to go" in reference to food. If they want to get their knickers in a knot over someone else using a term that their own ancestors coined than that is their problem and I don't care enough about their tender feelings on the matter to stop using the term. Soccer, Rugby, Australian Rules Football and NFL Style Football have all been called Football and people can choose to accept that or whine about it.

This is just commenting on the point you made QV not having a go at you.

Post by: P7PSP on May 15, 2012, 08:00:29 AM
I saw enough before and after talking to you to get a good idea of how it is played, especially why the NFL recruited some of the Aussies to be punters and goal kickers. Being able to kick a 6 pointer on the run is damned impressive.

On another note I saw a bunch of QLD Reds and Hamilton Chiefs fans on the train Sunday and talked to them about the then upcoming match. I like QLD's motto "We Are Queensland, We Are Red" lots of kiwis showing up to that one, about 20% on the express train from the Gold Coast.

video games are better. especially when they dont have anything to do with sports.

legend of zelda OoT or MM is the best... but twilight princess is a close second/third. i dont own that one os i only have a small amount of play to judge it on.

Yeah footy is the only sport i follow.  My team was in the play off's to go up but we didn't.  So, i am a bit pissed off, too.

I don't really care much for the American game or what they call it.  Football is a game played with the foot and a ball.  Hence the name.  If the planks want to play a game where they have their hands on their balls a lot of the time,  i would think 'handball' would be a better term,  but it doesn't bother me that they want to call it after our own splendid game :zoinks:

Cricket is something to watch if insomnia is present.  Rugby is a little too much of a 'contact' sport for my liking,  and all that jumping in the bath together afterwards...yikes  no sir, not for me!
