I'm a little disappointed, they didn't discuss how tries are scored, conversions etc. I really don't think the description is technically sufficient to fully understand the process of the game. Also I've yet to meet a female rugby player who isn't a lesbian heffalump |

Perhaps we should suggest to the producers of that film that perhaps a second film would be in order? Strictly for educational purposes, you understand.

I've met a grand total of two. And we let the girl team use our house one summer. We thought it was pretty bad after a half-dozen of us lived there during the regular year, but oh fuck no. We were like Martha fucking Stewart compared to the mess those things left.,

| I played in college and most of us didn't have a good grasp of all the rules. We played the game like we played "smear the queer" as kids. Tackle who ever has the ball. For those that don't know what "smear the queer" means, it meant just that, smear the guy with the ball. Hell, fortunately we didn't know what a queer was then. Rough damn game though. |

Rough damn game though. When I was in school we played a team of Marines that came up from Lejeune. Seeing those guys before the match, I have never been so certain that I was about to die. They were all fucking ripped, and had more tats than a prison ward in Guadalajara. We wound up winning the game pretty handily, but we lost every fight.  We went through more than a couple of kegs once we were done, and they did a respectable job of holding their beer. I think they were pretty shocked to have a bunch of nancy college kids hand them their ass on the pitch and then also be able to out-drink them.  They were cool dudes.

Pretty much the experience I had - I was pretty skinny but fast as hell, so I usually just either ran for my life if I had the ball, and kissed my ass goodbye if I had to stop someone. Loved that game.

Same here. I'd like the Yellow Team, personally. Seems like that is how American Football originated. Simplified rugby rules. Quoted:

I'd pick up rugby, even at my age, with that league. Same here. I'd like the Yellow Team, personally. Seems like that is how American Football originated. Simplified rugby rules. American Football was indeed derived from Rugby although the rule book (or laws as they are in Rugby) is much bigger for the American version. As far as female players are concerned, there are beauties and beasts just as in any walk of life, see this possible NSFW link to a Daily Mail article. Oxford University womens Rugby team Here is the Canadian version... Oh Canada... Let's face it, this ain't no sissys game, it takes a certain motivation to play and to play well. It takes toughness both mentally and physically and the women are no exception therefore the beast to beauty ratio is lop sided. |

Ahh, Cricket. A great drinking game for spectators, especially the five day matches... |

Quoted: Fuck I miss Rugby. I played in school, and Semi-Pro for a few years. http://i651.photobucket.com/albums/uu240/Skg_Mre_Lght/442d57b8.jpg BTW, I played football with many guys that went to college to play ball, and a few that went pro (quite a few), and Rugby was always more satisfying. The official rules of drinking were a bonus. Lol |
