1. This is why

See here under "Fame"

                 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugby,_Warwickshire

or here under "History"

                  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugby_football

2.  There IS NO American Rugby.
Not even US Rugby.
Even if, mayhaps, some people may claim to play such a game.

      http://www.americanrugbynews.com/artman/publish/national/What_is_American_Rugby.shtml

Americans can play Rugby, which is quite another matter :-).

(Not everyone knows it, but there is ONLY NZ Rugby :-) ).

3. There is Gridiron, but it is not Rugby :-).
