YAGVT- Rugby

Love watching it. Big fan - my brother used to play but blew out his ACL in a tournament in Florida a few years ago. He can't play anymore, but he still coaches a bit and does the fieldwork before games.

I'll never forget the one game I watched where one of his teamates had the top part of his ear ripped off. He grabbed some gauze and wrapped it around his head, taped it, put on a scrum cap and ran back out during the injury time out.

It's strictly a spectator sport for me. But hella fun to watch!
 
Cool vid. I used to play rugby in college as a club sport. I had a great time. Have taken my share of hits, and had my share of great hits on opponents. All in all, it sorta taught me the rejuvenation that can be had from a good ol' fashion ass-whooping. No matter how hard I trained, I would always hurt the day after games. It's a good hurt, though.

I never sustained any overly serious injuries. I fractured a finger, once, but that was the only bone I ever broke. Nearly broke my nose, once, and my toe another time. Surprisingly, when played with proper form, the game is pretty safe. That's my opinion, at least.
