I do.
Unless you're getting sarcastic about the whole football vs soccer thing?
In reply to Duke :
I'm in America and I call it soccer. If I was visiting Brazil or England, I'd refer to it as football. No sarcasm implied.

RIP Pele.

In reply to Steve_Jones :
People worldwide know the name Pele, even if they may have no knowledge of soccer/football.
