The AP *Might* Not Understand Soccer

A screen shot of the AP News app

Scroll down the left column of this screen shot of the AP News app from my iPad. The third window down the left side shows what the AP is calling soccer. I shall now look for news on the English Premier League from a different news outlet. (Click on the image itself to see a larger version of it.)

  1. Maybe we should start calling soccer “football.” That will teach them.

    Also, the NFL is still tax exempt. As such, I’m boycotting the entire sport. So, I’ll just have to watch the REAL football.

  2. You know, the NFL has been advertising pretty heavily in the UK over the past few years. And they play a few games a year there now.

    Maybe this is just part of their new marketing strategy — pay the AP to run American football stories under the soccer heading.
