Talk:Jay DeMerit

message: He's an american, so isn't he a soccer player? or does he play for a European team —Preceding unsigned comment added by Beefpelican (talk • contribs) 
Yes, he's an American and yes, he's what you'd call a soccer player. But football is the common usage in the rest of the world, so that's what's used here. HornetMike 20:52, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I would normally agree with HornetMike here, but when you're referring to the sports he played in high school, and you say "football," it just gets confusing, which is what just happened in this article. Che84 01:12, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Words should be referred to as they are used in the country they're from s- he played high school soccer, but he plays football for Watford is how it should be stated, I believe. Miles Blues 06:49, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

text: The use of the term "football" can be additionally confusing in the context of saying that DeMerit is "an American football player" since "American football" is in itself a sport. For this reason, I am changing that phrase to "is an American soccer player". --JumboBuc (talk) 15:52, 26 March 2009 (UTC)
