RUGBY!!!!
I don't understand how in this day and age Rugby isn't a sport that has reached the same popularity as US Football in the US O_o
For one the rules are way easier to understand and most importantly it much easier to play. At least in my opinion it is. I don't root for football here in the US, I really really reeaaaaaally could care less about it. I do root for the SYDNEY ROOSTERS!!!!!11!!!1one!!!1!!!!shift+one!11!!!1!
One other point that completely baffles me, we as an American majority love carnage, destruction, seeing people get hurt, things get smashed. Why are we not avidly supporting rugby? Have you people not seen the epic albeit accidental clotheslines that have occurred out there? What about the head first dives into other people trying to get the ball away from the opponent? I mean you want to see battle on a field you should be watching Rugby I highly recommend it!
Did anyone else catch their awesome match against Canterbury? It was freaking amazing, I don't care about getting up and 5 am to watch the games in my time zone either (although I'm sure my neighbors probably wish I would shut the French toast up and let them sleep, it's not my fault Rugby is so entertaining!). I will freely admit that I am jealous of Australians for having access to Rugby as a huge national sport, I would trade them our football any day for their Rugby league
Here's a link to my favorite Rugby teams site: http://www.roosters.com.au/
Rugby - We don't need no stinking sissy body padding like the NFL !!!
Let's talk Rugby!
So how do you guys feel about Rugby?
Have you ever played it?
Have you ever been to a match before?
Have you ever met any of the Sydney Roosters in person?
