>Be innovative: Follow the Rugby. In 5 years when Rugby's predicted to be all the craze in the US, you'll be able to say you saw the light before anybody else in town. ;-) Timing is perfect: the Rugby World Cup is well underway with Tonga just having beaten Namibia in Exeter, with Canada about to take on France in Milton Keynes. You might even want to become a fan of those All Blacks from a strange little country at the bottom of the World. ;-) They're taking on Georgia next (the nation, not the state.)

This is insane. College football is worse.
These athletes are dying so that coaches and university presidents can draw multi-million dollar salaries.
From what I've seen Rugby is even wackier.
