The name football comes from England I thought, where they called any game played on foot football as opposed to being on horseback or some shit. So rugby was football. The U.S. version of such also was known as football. Hence why Australia also calls Australian Rugby, football or footy.
Meaning that in spirit, baseball and basketball are also football, lolol
‘Football’ comes from the English words ‘foot’ and ‘ball’ which mean approximately ‘foot’ and ‘ball’ respectively. So you could translate ‘football’ to something like ‘ball’s foot’, ‘ball of the foot’ or even ‘football’

The word Soccer comes from England, too. It’s a Britishized version of “association football” with a typical R appended.
In that case, tennis is football, volleyball is football, bowling is football, snooker is football (or perhaps footballs?)
You’ve open Pandora’s box of football!
Remember when Forest Gump played football in the Olympics?
It’s football all the way down…
Your explanation is absolutely ludicrous.
