Why not? Football is fast, violent, and exciting. While most American sports fans *watch* football, not nearly as many *play* football, because you need at least a dozen or so people and a fairly open area to play it (unless you count the fun but highly dangerous hallway-football games we played in college.) Many more people play Basketball, because you only need two people (or one, if you're really desperate) and available basketball courts are a lot more commen than empty fields big enough for football.
