Sports in American Samoa : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sports in American Samoa
Sports in American Samoa is not that different from Samoa. The main difference is the popularity of American sports such as American football (gridiron) and its league, NFL. Western Samoans tend to follow rugby union. ==American Football==
American football is a growing sport in American Samoa. About 30 ethnic Samoans, many from American Samoa, currently play in the NFL. A 2002 article from estimated that a Samoan male (either an American Samoan, or a Samoan living in the 50 United States) is 40 times more likely to play in the NFL than a non-Samoan American. Pittsburgh Steelers safety Troy Polamalu, though born and raised in the mainland United States, is perhaps the most famous Samoan in the NFL, having not gotten his haircut since 2000 (and only because a former USC coach told him he had to) and wearing it down during games in honor of his heritage.
