Cannot understand why it is not more prevalent in the US.
One of your fellow Scots, a good friend of ours, visits us every Fall and we enjoy watching rugby together, along with our Idiotapolis 500 which consists of 200 beers, 100 chicken wings and 200 miles on our bicycles. This year will be our 6th Annual bike ride through The Everglades.
Even Mrs. N.Theknow enjoys rugby. October cannot come quick enough.
I played 12 seasons over seven years (Fall and Spring) at the D-I college level and competitive club level. I retired when my body finally gave out. In my mind, the only team sports that come close to rugby in all-around excitement, athleticism, and physical demands are Hurling and Gaelic football.
