The History Of Football Origination

Nobody sat down and invented football. No genius. No blueprint. No eureka moment. Football clawed its way into existence over two thousand years — through Chinese army camps, Roman battlefields, medieval village riots, royal bans, Victorian school arguments, and a single argument in a London tavern in 1863 that split the sport into two.
