No, no, it's a thug's game, it just happens to be played by gentlemen.

All my relations are into it, but it bores me stiff.

Come to think of it, I don't pay any attention to sport whatsoever. It's too time-consuming, slow, and frustrating.

I used to play rugby in high school, I was on the first girls team that my school had and I still look back on those memories fondly. I was a flanker, the left flanker and as a consequence my right shoulder is royally buggered. The left too but that happened when I dislocated it after a scrum collapsed on me. I have never, however, heard of having teeth embedded in players, although I'm not surprised. Sick.

God, I miss that sport.

One has to say that the face of Ben Czislowski could only have been improved by a tooth embedded somewhere in it.

Rugby players do have the most, um, interesting faces...

That would be rugby LEAGUE, not rugby UNION just to make sure everybody's on the same page here (which I'm sure many aren't, being american and all...)

(and hey, I used to play rugby, watch it with the insults).

I'm sorry, did I read correctly, there's a sports team called Tweed Heads?

There is! There is! And they're the Seagulls! OMGOMGOMG!

UGH! This guy is on CNN right now, with the tooth in hand. Which is better than in head, I guess, but still... I'm trying to eat lunch, here!

There was a rugby team at my highschool, which meant a few jocks walking around with "hooker" on their shoulders

France's new rugby ad: Enjoy Rugby in the Capital of Love.

I read that as Ruby: A gentlemans game.
And I thought, well it is elegant and simple, but what's essexjan doing making posts about computer programming?
posted by seanyboy 17 July | 19:00
*not to imply that e/j is simple. No, it's the gentlemen that are simple; And not to imply either that e/j wouldn't be interested in computer programming*

Oh gosh Darn it.
Pass me the spade - I've a hole to dig. *
