Who says they aren't?
I know they aren't. Personally, I like the taste of dog and if hot dogs were made of dog, I would eat them more often.
Hmmm...methinks the boat rises with the tide, no?
Mea culpa.
Missed the boat bit.
With that kind of logic Tennis, Baseball, Hurling, Lacrosse, Handball and possibly even Golf should also be called football.
No, in each of those cases, standing still does NOT result in 150 kg of Olympic-fast athlete crashing into you.
What is special about the following number sequence?
8, 5, 4, 9, 1, 7, 6, 10, 3, 2, 0
Alphabetical order of the English words for these numbers?

It does at least with Hurling, no protection (although they very recently allowed field players to wear helmets) and they are armed with clubs.
It is the fastest and likely the most brutal field sport there is.

During WWII, there was a bridge connecting Germany and Switzerland, and on the German side, there was a sentry tower with a guard in it. He would come out every three minutes to check on the bridge, and he had orders to turn back anyone who tried to get into Germany, and shoot anyone trying to escape without a pass. There was a woman who desperately needed to get into Switzerland, and she knew she didn't have time to get a pass. It would take her at least six minutes to cross the bridge, but she managed to do it. How?
