English culture is best culture:

Rum, beer, movies, nice websites, gaming, etc., without interrupting the flow of martial threads.

Not just football, all sports.

All the important sports were invented by the English. Ok golf was the Scotts, but they were working for us at the time.

The fact the we, the English, invented football is not contentious.

I can give you the time date and pub that the rules were formalized (when football and rugby split into distinct sports).

Yes, other (so called) cultures had games that involved kicking a ball...how many survive today? None were football or even the ancestor of football.

Ah, the rules of football that everyone follows today was invented by the English. I guess you forgot to leave out boxing and wrestling, too.

Well, I think the French would say they invented "culture" (such as manners) and the Germans invented "science." The Irish might also a bit to say, too. :)

But, okay, I totally agree with television comedy, and even literature, but these aren't inventions. I'm skeptical about "weather, popular music, and food."

How can the French have invented culture when as late as the end of the 19th century more than half the population of france didn't speak what we would now call french. No, I put it to you that culture was invented by the English at some time around 1970.

Newton was defining sience fot 200 years before germans had a country called germany.

Yes the irish might have a bit to say, but who the hell understands WTF they are on about.
