	Football (soccer) - Biocrawler (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
		Football is played predominantly with the feet, but players may use any part of their body except their hands and arms to propel the ball; the exceptions to this are the goalkeepers, who are the only players allowed to handle the ball in the field of play.
		Football is played at a professional level all over the world, and millions of people regularly go to a football stadium to follow their home team, whilst millions more avidly watch the game on television.
		Football is generally a free-flowing game with the ball in play at all times except when it has left the field of play over a boundary line, or play has been stopped by the referee.
