Why is American football called football — as most of the sport involves using your hands?
Interesting. Do you know if there have been any attempts to rename the sport, to better reflect its focus on hand use?
Not that I am aware of. The name football has become so ingrained in American culture that it would likely be difficult to change at this point. Additionally, given the long and storied history of the sport, it may be seen as disrespectful or unnecessary to try to rename it.
