We have to adjust it so we can call it football. there's nothing like a burger and a pint just before football.

An education dear fellows;

Far from being an Americanism the word "soccer" has it's origins in England and was later transported to the unbelievers.
Over the years the word "soccer" was replaced by the word "football".

The word "soccer" originated as an "Oxford '-er'" slang abbreviation of "association", and was popularized by a prominent English footballer, Charles Wreford-Brown. This origin is evident in the sometimes-heard variation, "soccer football." Wiki
