Why is it score is reported and shown on TV in the USA like that?

In Europe they're used to saying Team A hosts Team B
(Manchester United hosts Arsenal)

In America we're used to saying Team B at Team A
(New England at Philadelphia)

Yes I know they say "away at home" but why do they do that?

And you don't really say "hosts", it's just Man Utd - Arsenal, Man Utd against Arsenal, Man Utd vs Arsenal

Soccer has no position called centre. American football doesn't either. I don't watch hockey or lacrosse. The position in basketball is called center, but they have no wingers, so this makes no sense.

This is in football, a Striker is sometimes called a Centre Forward. And a old name for the Striker (at least here in sweden) was Centre, and behind him was the "Half centre"

It's because the home team in baseball bats last.

It's a convention that found its way to every sport in America.

Actually in the US the winning teams score is shown first.

Home - Away or Away - Home is arbitrary and could be either. But Month/Day/Year IS fucking retarded.

According to the American National sport commision, in all team sports, the home team is featured on the bottom of a scoreboard or boxscore. In the event of a neutral playing facility, one team is assigned homefield position.

There's no part of 4chan where there isn't cancer. /mu/ has the dragonforce fags. /o/ has the FWD fags. /v/ has the pokemon fags. Even /d/ has the foot fetish fags. At least /sp/ isn't unique in the fact that we just re-kindle Europe/America rage.
