This has probably been debated thousands times on the net, but i want to know your opinions.

Is it called American fotball or Handegg?

Vote in the poll and comment below on why you think that.

Never heard of 'hang-egg' but yeah, it is.
You're holding an egg to be honest.

The fact people call it American football is quite stupid.

The italic was the major give-away, for the people who didn't catch it. You're holding the ball, not kicking it with your feet! -_-

You do kick it with your feet, and I have never heard a single person in America call it Hand-egg

Yes its football is in the NFL. I have never in my life heard it called hang egg or bag or w/e its just a British or Australian name I suppose.

I have never heard of fotball or handegg before, Football (NFL/CFL) is the only name i've heard.

You are using mostly your HAND and the ball is shaped as an EGG.

What the heck is handegg?

I don't know what your eggs look like, but if you didn't realise its large in the middle and equally pointy on the ends. And every game starts with kicking and after every touchdown, on 4th downs, etc. Its a pretty big part of it. No one in that resides in countries that play football call it hand egg

Look here:

In my opinion they are shaped almost the same.
And you mostly use your hands, so it's logical that it's Hand-Egg.

ok thats just a weird angle of the egg. As you can see eggs are wider on the bottom and narrow at the top
