Hey everyone, maybe you all can help out here. Was just watching TV with Gypsy and this game called Rugby came on (Scotland vs France). Gypsy says THAT is a real MAN's game....is he kidding me here???? The rules are quite different and Gypsy says they have no need to wear helmets and padding like American 'sissy' players because these players are tougher. Then he goes on to say that technically 'Soccer' is more of a football game than American football as well........cause in Soccer they make contact with the ball more with their feet.
Although I have attempted to point out to him that those fellows playing Rugby 'in shorts no less'
are hardly representative of what 'I' would categorize as a rough and tough, lean machine (like we have in the states)...he persists in saying that Rugby is played by tougher guys.
*I'm laughing inside as I invision one of those Rugby fellers coming up on the likes of a 'Refrigerator Perry' kind of American football player*
So what's you guys take on all this?
Please vote :wink:
