cute, i thought it was s funny!!
well, im english and i thought the teaser had a problem
Nice!!
It took me a while to decide which way round this teaser should be. (should the ball go over or under) In the end I decided that most people reading would be American even though I am English.
yeh. if you look on the stats page, it says more americans...
Think global...
I was thinking that the field goal kicker (If it was American football) jjust miised it and a wide receiver or tight end caught the ball in the endzone to score a game-winning touchdown. .... Guess I was wrong
That's exactly what I thought too.
Easy peasy for me the English cool though Kepp em comin
Way to spread the word bout the sports proper name even if that wasnt the point of it

The "?" in the title was enough.

You probably like the traditional English accent, most of us sound like our vocal chords have been torn out and dragged through mud and nails and then smoothed off with some very rought sand-paper.
i thought maybe he had kicked it the wrong way... though i guess that wouldnt have won the game for the team
It's awsome! but its kind of easy for us soccer lovers. lol.

Easy for US soccer luvers.
Guess that was easy for me! Hence my name! I love soccer, and even though my dad's American he loves to say football, kit, and boots, and read British football magazines! He's our assistant coach and noone knows what he's talking about except for me. I'm used to it!
well that was pretty easy
i think that your flag symbol may give some of the teaser away...

Good job.
The question mark after "Football?" and your flag gave it away.
Great teaser But WAY 2 easy
That was a good teaser. My grandpa played pro soccer 30 years ago and so I knew the answer because they called it football.
Too obvious! I liked it, though.
Go Atlanta Falcons!!
We narrow-minded americans can't ever seem, once we hear the word "football" to get the image out of our heads. I couldn't, and so I got it wrong
I am a kicking cat
Ten cats a-smiling
When Americans hear football, they think its American Football. Well, I'm not American.
