Go Eagles!!!! part 2...the eulogy

Photo: Harvard Cheerleaders really do exist

As you recall, the US played England in the first round of the Rugby World Cup on Saturday. Comments were made that playing the US was like playing the Harvard Cheerleaders. http://www.timeoutdubai.com/dubai/sportandoutdoor/events/review.php?id=6281.

I think that means they were calling our team a bunch of girls....albeit, very smart girls. Well, I wasn't going to let our brave boys with the big thighs and stripy shirts down, so I stayed up and watched the match. Final score England 28/US 10. Okay we lost and they called us minnows (little fish/big pond), but we put up a good fight and I am proud of our team.

Did you know that the Rugby World Cup is the third largest sporting event behind the Olympics and the FIFA World Cup (soccer). Who knew????

Blue-eyesight has had hundreds of complaints (okay, maybe it was two but they were very, very upset) over the inability of my faithful readers to leave comments. I believe the problem has been solved and I will be looking forward to reading your responses.
