Football game for Ubuntu?

And by "football" I mean the American kind with helmets, shoulder pads and so on.

Anything really...text based, simple x's and o's, whatever. Any suggestions?

That's a soccer game and was the thing I kept finding when searching on Google.

Why do Americans call that silly game they play 'Football' when, from the seconds I've been able to tolerate it, they invariable seem to carry the 'ball' (aren't balls round?) in their hands? This is opposed to Association Football where the ball spends most of its time on the ground being kicked about (by the player's feet).
I ask purely out of interest

Why does the rest of the world call it "Gridiron Football"?

Yeah, I know. 'cuz the hash marks on the field.

@Chris and anyone else who is interested this might answer your questions:

I'm going to check out that "gridiron" football app.

With that being said I can't stand "soccer".
