I remember during college playing against our heated and hated rival university. This was rugby, the real sport of men and our team was ranked in the top-5 in the Nation. The game quickly devolved into a bar fight during every scrum and lineout. Punches, people getting stomped on when the ball was out of the ruck and half way across the field. I was sucker punched twice, goes that way when you score a try. Each time the ball died a second scrum of fists and kicks would follow, whistles from the ref and side judges pulling people apart. Then came the diplomatic finger pointing, screaming and accusations from both sinners and saints. Each time took 5 minutes to restart play.
It reached a point where no matter how long we discussed who did what first, it didn't matter. It simply didn't matter. The ref finally blew the whistle and called the game on the spot. We were left looking rather silly with the game ended with it only half over. Sadly, we were down by 3-points and lost our perfect season.
I think someone needs to call the whistle on this debate. We have the brackets to deal with. Is anyone even flying in the "air" anymore? Who is left? Can we lock this thread to only those left engaged, meaning this is my last post?
Great people on both sides with lots of fingers being pointed. Just end it. No one is ever going to win and all parties have posts that do not show their good side. On the complimentary side, great competitors make great players and at times their competitive side gets the better of their brain. This is clearly one of them. Snap out of it, hit the showers and those left to duel get dueling. I know, this is the heart of the isse. Bald Eagle makes a call, end of it!
