I have often wondered, I admit, why they call it football, since the foot only purposely strikes the ball about twice. Passball, maybe? Runball? Colisionball?
And I agree that the world series ought to encompass other champs in the world, if they play baseball the same way. The Japanese, for instance, do not play the game the same way. The Cubans do, but, course, that's politics. I don't know of any others. Are there any others?
As for things that "are not that popular around the world," hmm. Something about glass houses comes to mind.
Aha! It looks like I and Jams touched a raw nerve here. Re glass houses: my favorite game is football, which you call soccer, and this only once every four years, with maybe an addition of Copa America. Israeli football is excluded from my scope, in fact this is a glass house I definitely would throw a few stones at ;)

Some sort of fotball played there? One of the games with a world series that consists of about 6 US states?
Uhu... my point precisely, and we both we'll be despised for it soon.
