There is a plce on Earth where people call football to a sport mainly played by hand. I would say that these is an improper way of using the word footbal. Manly because there is sport played by foot with a ball and not with a melon inpersonator that the the rest of the world call rightfuly football.
Speaking of football, there are some coachs here that like to play in attack. They say that they advocate a positivist philosophy... Naturaly that they are far away from knowing August Comte. I would say that they are making an improper use of the term.
As for deportation. Yes of course. Maybe there are some places left in Guantanamo ;0)
