:::I agree that Randall is definitely referring to NFL-style US Football in this comic. Also, since the US women's 'futbol' team won the world cup, we're officially calling it 'Soccer' until someone wins the championship back from us. ;S | :::I agree that Randall is definitely referring to NFL-style US Football in this comic.

− | :::: | + | ::::I agree it is an American Football field (as it is often called abroad - also, people do not use their feet to kick the ball as much as when playing soccer). Do women play football? I believe most people who actually care about football do not care for the women's futbal (even though they're different sports) :-D By the way I don't care for sports, almost on the same level here as Randall, and also I did not know that there is a 5 yard line on an American Football field, but all the time assumed it was. As far as I know there are no distance lines on a soccer field. --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 10:09, 11 August 2019 (UTC) |
Should we have a geology category, like we have [[:Category:Geography]] and many other science categories? --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 20:26, 9 August 2019 (UTC) | Should we have a geology category, like we have [[:Category:Geography]] and many other science categories? --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 20:26, 9 August 2019 (UTC) | ||

::Sure, but very few outside the USA have an intuitive feel for what the actual relative sizes are except for "a football field is probably pretty big and a microscope can see very small things". So outside the USA it's an analogy that is less useful than just saying the time in years.

:::A regular football field and an American football field is almost the same size and a yard is close to a meter. I'm pretty sure than 90% of those coming here did understand the analogy in this comic, and the other 10% was probably from the US ;-D --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 10:09, 11 August 2019 (UTC) | :::A regular football field and an American football field is almost the same size and a yard is close to a meter.
