"Coach wants to start 15's practice on Tuesday. Get your boots and get ready," President Foxworth exclaimed.
We were all excited. Enough of this silly 7s shit, it's not even rugby (unless the IOC is listening, then we all love it!)
Enough of the prima donna bitches who have played about 12 minutes of rugby in their lives telling us how important it is for everyone to go to a tourney in Orangeburg.
No, this post said it was time for real rugby.
El Presidente might as well have said, "Free puppies and candy inside the my blacked-out van!" What fool would have believed him?
....Oh well!
So instead of line-outs and tackling, it was stretching with Coach Rookie McSharkFuck. Instead of power angles it was laps and drills with Coach KrustyFeet. And intead of hitting the pads we were run to death by Coach Kvetch Silverstein.
Man is it tough being a fat fucker at pre-season fitness training
. I want this to be a big season for several reasons and as a result have been exercise more and more. However, last night I realized running in a straight line is great, but when you have to turn around or, god forbid, drop to the ground it gets really tough.For me, this is going to be a big season -- I hope -- if only for the fact that I need to be in good enough shape so that the Division II side doesn't have to have Scott Hunter forced upon them.
Hunter-itis aside, I have had some conversations over the last week that have really made me see how important it is for this team to do more this year than in previous.

Your going to have to translate 'power angle' for me Gelati. No really, I'm genuinely curious, it sounds fucking cool.
John,
It's just a drill where you engage as you would in the front row of a scrum. The goal is just to simulate that position and work on getting your body into better position. I'm sure you did it as a schoolboy... as I did!
I actually showed up because of the free candy and puppies, but the van wasn't where Foxy said it would be, and I still had to run!
I think the "I'm Dead Sexy" photo on this latest entry should be a pic of Matese.
Ah, gotcha. Yep, that is a familiar drill, but I got confused because nothing in the borders has a name that cool.
I should think about joining a team just to attend training, playing rugby was the fittest I ever was....
