man.... after going through so many of these acronym quizzes and trying to come up with one I could make myself I had decided that given so many of the previous ones were so Amerocentric that maybe I should do an international acronyms quiz... but... then I stumbled across this quiz and this one stole many of the answers I was going to put on that one. :P blah.

Erm, not it cannot. It is the English Premier league, but only teams from England and Wales can and do compete in it. There are no Scottish teams in it. The Scottish have their own, called the SPFL (Scottish Professional Football League).

Did anyone else not realize just how stupid FIFA is as an acronym. it switches languages halfway through and the association part is kind of redundant. Is it a federation and and association for some reason?

Absolutely, DaveM. There are several other types of football besides association football, mostly having balls of a more interesting shape.

I thought each word would be accepted so was surprised several words seemed to be wrong. I was doubting myself more and more.. huh not football, huh not association. Not until I got to day of latter days saint I realised what was happening ( that HAD to be day). The ____ ___ are quite misleading, especially since on other quizzes it DOES mean a word is accepted for each line.

It might be stating the obvious (for some) but maybe add in the description the full answer is needed. (I ve seen way more obvious, redundant things that were self-explanatory as descriptions)
