Deer Yankee Amerikans.
Your Eagles rugby team (yes you have a rugby team) will be playing in a (real) world cup next year - you know - where there are actually OTHER countries competing.
This weekend your Eagles rugby team plays the mighty All Blacks (greatest Rugby Team in the Known Universe, All Hail Richie McCaw) in Chicago at Soldier Stadium.
A few warnings as some of you yankees may have trouble handling such awesomeness:
- no helmets
- no padding
- they play for two 40 minute halves pretty much non-stop
- no timeouts
- no offensive/defensive teams. Just "the team"
- there will be blood
- the haka is a both a challenge and a sign of respect
