    Football distinguishing it from games played on horseback

    The problem with this line of argument is that basketball would also be football, as would baseball, cricket, hockey, and even cycling.

      You had me until cycling. Which would clearly be “ball-less tech polo” or something like that 🤷🏻

        Counterargument. I’ve never seen cycling done on horseback. Therfore it is football.

        Unless we classify a bike as a mechanical horse. Then we have mountain horsing, road horsing. Trick horsing. And all the velodrome horsing events.

          I’ve never seen it done on foot or with a ball either, though.

          Two-wheel chasies?

          Or as a compromise, Wheelhorsing around?

            There are not many sports left to invent.

            Bike Football

            Horse Rugby (as seen in rambo)

        We sometimes call bicycles “wire donkeys”

          Cars are horseless carriages. Does that mean they are more or less likely to fall into the football category?

          Only in the US, though. It’s yet another of their silly regionalisms that confuses everyone.
