Post yer pic

okay I found some - I am ref'ing a rugby game in the rain - I am the one in the yellow shirt. Provided I can figure out how to post [pictures here

well that sorta worked ,,,,,,,,,,,,

the edit made it somewhat better

Great pics! I see you really are serious about the Rugby football. My brother used to play Rugby for University of Michigan years ago when he was going to school in Ann Arbor Michigan. I attended a few of his games which were very lively crowds to say the least. As things turned out he had 3 knee operations, 2 from college rugby and 1 from high school football (i.e., US-style American football). He had a bumper sticker on his car that said "It takes rubber balls to play Rugby!" and that was no exageration... it was much rougher than US football and no padding, no knee-pads, nothing... they dressed like the players in your pictures... the Michigan team wore blue trunks with blue and gold striped jerseys.

lol actually, unless they changed the bumper sticker for your area - it is: "It Takes Leather Balls To Play Rugby". I played Canadian style football for 5 years (high school and junior ball, which is sorta like an intermediate between high school and university), and twenty years of rugby - played provincial rep. I coached Rugby for a total of eleven years, and have been a certified ref for 8 years, and served on the executive of the ref society for seven years. Last Feb. I got to ref the KOT in Sacramento, which is the second high light of my ref'ing career. The high light was doing the World Master Games in Edmonton. But it will all be eclipsed if everything goes right, and I get to ref at the World Masters Games in Sydney in October.

lmao you are right... it takes leather balls... as I remember they turned into a roundy bunch of drunks after the game...

which guy are you?

Rugby is a great game, and I have tried to explain it many times to non-rugby players. You spend eighty minutes trying to beat the physical hell out of the opposition, and when the whistle goes, you go and buy those guys you just spent all that energy trying to dominate a beer. What happens on the pitch, you leave on the pitch.

The other thing is you can travel the world, playing everywhere you go. You instantly have friends, and a common bond. In my experience there is no other sport like it.

I wonder if Bill Clinton wrote it? He was a pretty good bullshitter!

Yeah, that one is a little dark. It's me at 1 1/2 holding a beachball over an inflatable canoe - very exciting! Let's see if this one is better. Oooooh, this was during my burn-the-bra days!
