It is alleged that the game of football originated as a result of a
group of english soldiers (under the aegis of The Duke of Cumberland)
kicking the dismembered head of a Scotsman about the battlefield.

Personally, I think it was more likely that it was one of the poor dead
mans testicles.


I think you may have completed my research on the origins of the
Cumberland Sausage...
