Am very dissapointed at the change of thread title ‘Football’ to Soccer, and the ‘Football Role Models’ thread.
The last time I checked the site said Yeshiva World News. Therefore, the site should conform to international standards. I am perfectly willing to accept that in a conversation between Americans, they refer to Football as Soccer and American Football, or Gridiron, as Football. This is what they call it in their country, and within their borders they are welcome to.
But this is, unless I am mistaken, the premier site for the entire Yeshiva World (I will take this to mean places with yeshivish communities and/or yeshivas). This includes Belgium, France, Switzerland and of course the UK and Israel. In all of these countries, Football means Soccer, and as such it is not too much to as that the site respects this diversity and follows the opinion of most communities, that Football refers to the sport of soccer and not AF. Thanking you and awaiting the correction.
