Americans, do you know rugby?

[lightbulb27]

yes i find that better than our football. a real mans sport.

you wouldn't find me ont he field.. I'd end up in hospital ust playing against high school girls team.

And we do have that where I live.

when younger, used to do this in our own way playing backyard football. We called it "smear the queer". Loads of fun for young boys!

[Filthy_Immigrant]

isn't that were NFL football originated from?

wow I know it evolves tackling and takedowns just like NFL football but damn Rugby players dont wear pads, they are troopers!

[Julie4]

He should call it American Rugby

[purplepoppy]

Don't encourage them, it's bad enough getting beaten by the frogs we'd never live it down if they won.

[Passerby2]

football and rugby come from the same sport, i think its still played in italy and gaining popularity. anyway, we already play our version of the game

[exitseven]

Yes, I played Rugby in college.

[Fireguy17]

pretty much kill the guy with the ball.
Other than that no clue, but I am not big on games played with a ball.

[Makeushiver]

Not how to play and not even really, how to watch. I do know that there are some big, bruising guys who play

[ProbablyClueless]

I've heard of it. I don't know anything about it though

[KostasKouvalis]

It's not very popular, but we know it. In a lot of colleges we play it.

[Staximus]

Sports played with balls (soccer, football, basketball, rugby) are dumb kids games

* For You

[RyanEC]

I know a little.


It’s a more aggressive version of football?

[Julie4]

Well yeah litlle.

For me the Americans should have called their "Football" "American Rugby" even if it is different, American Football is much closer to rugby than soccer.

[RyanEC]

I remember you said this before.

That would make more sense since football doesn’t fit.
They usually carry the ball and kick it less often.

[Julie4]

Do you watch American Football or baseball?

[RyanEC]

No, I’m not much into sports.

[Massageman]

Wasn't she a gymnast who took the title role in Peter Pan? ;- )

[KrakenAttackin]

Sure don't, but it does seem like a cool sport.

[Miristheiss]

A little but I am not an expert.

[DaBiggestBird]

You mean Rigby?

[Iron_Man]

Yes some

[noohair]

I have heard rumors.
