I did not know that. Figures seeing how Rugby is an early form of football. I read a huge thing about how foot ball would never have come about if rugby hadnt been played in the ivy leage schools here9Harvard, yale those guys)[/quote:0f2af]

Hmmm.....I wouldn't say that at all. The only thing in common is that you run with a similar shaped ball in your hand.

Totally different sports.

Yeah, you guys always do quite well.....Mind you, the Tongans have been full of themselves lately. Apparently they were going to "kick our arses," or so they said.....That's just funny. We fucked them up.

That dance is a tribal war dance. The only reason they do that at the start of sports games, is because they copied us.....

[quote="Simo Häyhä":0f2af]i have a sudden urge to play rugby but i dont know anything about the sport. its a shame its not popular in the us[/quote:0f2af]

You should take it up, I played for like 5 years - IMO, It's going to get a lot more popular in the U.S as time goes on.

It's a fucking thrilling sport to watch. If you guys had a national league like us, you'd get good very quickly....
