Orijinz!

black_samvara has bought this awesome word game: cards have an 'origin' question, giving facts about how a phrase/word came about, and from there you deduce/guess the hell out of whatever word it is. Selecting a card at random and slapping my hand over the answer before looking down (how you play solitaire with a 2+ player game), netted me the alleged answer to something that's bugged me quietly for a while: that whole thing where football is called football because it involves feet, and a ball? Where did soccer come from?

( Origins... )

There you go. For that matter, where the hell did 'cricket' come from?
