Blues was talking about the CFL but I'm watching rugby on NBC and I can't lie it's very entertaining, anybody else watching?

Yeah I like this tournament. Having fewer players on the field and short halves make it extremely fast-paced and high scoring.

But Rugby in general is fun to watch. I wish it would catch on in the US. I can understand why some wouldn't like soccer, but rugby is almost like back yard football.

Great stuff.

I wonder if we will see any of these good college players and minimum NFLers go and play in the CFL or UFL.

Alot of people dont get into the 7s rugby. You should check out a regular rugby game. Much more physical and shite.

Any idea when they're gonna release which matches they'll be showing? I can't wait for Wales-South Africa, France-NZ and Australia-Ireland in group play. I assume they'll show everything after group play.

And for the person who mentioned that they didn't like it, 7s is definitely a love-it or hate-it thing. I prefer traditional 15s anyday of the week. 7s is fun and exciting but it's almost too fast paced, feels almost like arena football, entertaining but too much going on at once.

Traditional 15s is much better paced, has more strategy and lasts much longer.

been watching it as much as I can. I dont know how many of you are in NOLA but Finn Mccools has alot of the rugby games. So even if you cant get it at home you could always catch it there.
