Here's a link to an article that I think really highlights the fact that Americans think rugby union and rugby league are the exact same thing.

Yes, my mate in Kentucky messaged me excitedly that the Nations games had recorded for him to watch.

I reminded him that the NRL is back soon and about the Vegas games again.

He just messaged that he has watched France V Wales now, and that he prefers the NRL games (He watched a game from nearly every round last year).

Not sure he gets that they are two separate sports yet.

looks like the US Rugby Union mob are using the term League for their competitions a getting in ahead of us.
