Rugby rocks!

Btw, had an excellent time in Denver! Thanks for the advice. Heading to Ft. Walton on 24th of march, know any good spots there?

Glad you enjoyed Denver; I'm hoping to get back out there myself for the Great American Beer Festival this fall. Never been to Ft. Walton, but I bet if you go to pubcrawler.com, you can find a few likely beer spots. I always check that site out when I'm traveling to a new city. The wife never ceases to be amazed how there's usually a brewpub or good beer bar right near the hotel, even though I've never been to the city before...

Denver is easily one of the nicest cities I have ever been to.

good organization vader, if you hunt at all than you should check it out. we do alot of conservation work.

actually it's great even if you don't. I was a member of the AZ Antelope Foundation too and we had lots of non-hunters as members who helped out on many of our projects.

I'm not a hunter but I understand the need for it. Hunters are a valuable source of info on the species they hunt.

Ok so I am a big soccer fan...Arsenal to be exact. While I do understand many people dislike soccer, I don't think that means ESPN should stop their coverage. If it wasn't for them covering UEFA right now, I wouldn't be able to see any Arsenal games (since I'm in a dorm). So I'm grateful to ESPN for that at least. As for Mike saying it's not a sport, you have to be kidding. It's the world's most popular sport.

And I never played soccer or anything. I in fact used to hate soccer like many people. But one day, my cousin said come watch an Arsenal game with me and I said alright don't have anything better to do. Then I watched Green Street Hooligans and soon after the World Cup was on and I was hooked.

I'm not really a big soccer fan at all either, except for World Cup play.

But I will say this: ESPN pays a lot of people, who don't post on our board as far as I know, a lot of money to study demographics. They know a lot more about what to show than any one of us by ourselves, and if soccer is what makes them money, more power to them.

Soccer is far more entertaining to watch than nascar, golf or baseball...On TV anyway...

And for those of you who said there is no contact in it, thats just being ignorant...

Please stop forcing soccer down our throats. It is not a requirement for 6 out of every of the top 10 plays to be a soccer goal, which in my opinion all look the same. Its one thing to have this stuff when World Cup is on, but I really dont care about this sport. Am I the only one this annoys? Because that could be a possibility due to my out spoken hate for that boring sport. Its like hockey but no hitting and not as cool. Its awesome the rest of the world loves it but America has better things, real football.

The same could be said about the "huge throwdown" dunk that seemingly always finishes in the top 3 of the top 10.

I'll just say I love World Cup Soccer. There is more passion in that than any other sporting event, between players and fans.

Nothing quite as exciting as a highlight show during August with nothing but a series of identical-looking home runs, either.
