The book’s first ASL illustration for Football was with a football player. After adding another story to My ASL Dictionary’s Deaf History, I replaced the image with a cartoon of Paul Hubbard, the deaf Gallaudet Quarterback who introduced the Footballl Huddle to the game of Football.
Hubbard, dressed in an 1890s Leather helmet and football uniform, shows the ASL hand sign for FOOTBALL. Sitting beside his picture is a small biography of his role in Football History.
The Open 5 hands, held apart, palms facing each other, come together twice, like two football players tackling each other.
