Ah, there you go. I had my first real Guiness last March. The horrid stuff they serve in the states does not even count. Nothing like a glass of the cool stuff at Tig Ric's for the Friday caeli. Fourteen local musicians Yeah, I was there....another world. A better world in many ways.

I'll send a large check to any Irishman (or woman, or anyone else) who can tell me the words to that "Shay ma hayle" song. :-)
(...so my Irish spelling is phonetic...best I can do...)

Err...Dionysus is a pale imitation :-)

Stella artois is extremely tasty from Belgium, and Spatan is very nice as well..as far as REAL football - just look at the physical specimens to compare which sport is pussy and which is true battle...try coming across the middle and having a 220 pound guy, who can run a 4.3 - 40 try and take your head off at full speed...

american footbal doesen't rate as a sport. just a load of padded pussies smacking in to each other, and falling acrobatically. it reminds me of WWF wrestling. try playing rugby, you pussies. that's why america is shit at rugby, because johnny football hero and his mates are scared to play a physical contact game where they're not padded up to the eyeballs. added to that, rugby has much more skill.
the only guy with any skill in american football, is the quarterback.

Sparhawk,
With all due respect, it sounds to me like you don't fully understand the game of American football. The necessary skills vary depending on which position one is inclined to play. Actually, the best "skill" athletes on the team are usually running backs and wide receivers. The quarterback needs to be smart as well as talented. More often than not, bad decisions and turnovers will kill his team.

I agree that rugby is a tough sport played by a lot of diehards. I have some friends who play and love it. However, for whatever reason, it is nowhere near as popular as football over here and as a result we are eons behind the rest of the world in terms of being competitive. But your post hardly diminishes my love of American football. Still friends? :)

Funny, I have never seen someone in Rugby look like Jevan Kearse...Rugby is for faegs, men bending over "scrumming" to catch their breath as one guy runs down the field and others follow like dogs...football is all contact all the time, not just one guy running the ball and other guys lollygagging beside him - in Rugby, the guy with the ball gets hit, then he stands around and lets some other guy get hit until he catches his breath, then he may do it again...

Football, you have every guy on the field trying to kill each other every play...ever get close to a football game and see the lines collide each play as people punch, spit, and basically maul each other every down? Pads you say? Pads add weight and allow them to hit harder...

Here is how I best you...you do not call knights in plate mail pussies because they wear armor do you??? No, they wear it because if they didn't they would be killed...you do not see an armorless guy running into battle cause he would be killed...if Football did not have pads people would die (and have died even with pads)...Rugby does not have pads, not because it is tougher, but because pads are not needed, because it is not as tough. If people were being paralyzed left and right or killed you can bet the sport would have to add pads in order to keep competition going...thus Rugby is the pussy sport.

Also, in Rugby, all are relatively the same size, and all of your contact comes from ahead to to the left and right ahead...in football, you can be blindsided by a 320 pound guy and get domolished...In Rugby, there are no missles - a guy doesn't run 20 yards in a full sprint to blind side you as you are TRYING TO CATCH A BALL IN THE AIR, and knocks your head off...try telling Jack Tatum he is a pussy - or the guy from New England who now sits in a wheel chair because Tatum paralyzed him with a hit.

Oh, and stop watching the European American Football League - that is not "professional" football, it is a joke.

Football wins!
