American football is a team ball sport with similarities to rugby, and to other sports known as "football"
In fact in the U.S. this sport is known simply as "football" however this word is clearly too ambiguous for tags. We should be more precise with this full tag sport=american_football.
Note also that this sport is not only played in america. The tag is perfectly valid elsewhere in the world. The sport is sometimes called "gridiron" due to its characteristic playing field, which is marked with a series of parallel lines resembling a gridiron. We do however also have a tag sport=canadian_football for a very similar game played on the same gridiron pitch.
