Just a comment that we're so NA concentric on this continent. The Rugby World Cup has been on, the tournament will have been watched by 1Billion viewers, and not a comment about it, or any of the games. Ireland is the team to love this time and they beat South Africa, and now Scotland on weekend knocking Scotland out of the tournament.
I'd rather watch Rugby more than NFL football any time of the day and so would most of the world. Tournament is just going into quarterfinals. Check it out. Rugby, the better the quality of players, it just becomes a better game to watch. Spectacular tries, kicks, tackles etc. These players are warriors and none like it. The Average NFL player, or any, would die or be pummeled trying to master Rugby. The endurance and stamina required for Rugby is off the charts compared to Gridiron. Absolutely respect those athletes that still find a way to run, play, tackle despite O2 depletion, fatigue, muscles screaming, lactic acid overload.
