"North American continent" includes Canada as well as the USA, and, depending
upon what definition you use, as far south as the Panama Canal. Even in the
USA, some fields tagged as "football" are likely to be for sports other than
"American football", given our cultural diversity.

I was curious about world wide stats... (from XAPI)
soccer=39,661 (40M of data)
football=3,848 (5M of data)
association_football=3

So far there is no overwhelming reason this needs to change. Why not
spend the time making language based presets more useful? W

Well its clear I've democratically been beaten down on this topic!
The best way to resolve this is to see what happens in the future.

The use of soccer should never have crept in to OSM. I've made it clear that
I think the use of soccer will be very controversial in the UK. I could

sport=association_football on the
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Football page, I'm just going to
keep reverting the changes because as it now stands sport=soccer is
the most used and most accepted tagging for this sport.

The proper thing would be to render an egg for american_football, and
nothing for sport=football.
If you render for yourself, set sport=football to whatever you like.
