Growing up on a dirt farm in Missouri and shooting squirrels for dinner
seems to make one a racist.

Is that a Truman reference?

Now I am pissed ...

We must be talking different sports. If soccer players hit like rugby players, they'd all be 'red
carded' off the field. Other than the requirement to move the ball downfield, I can't see many
similarities between soccer and rugby. Between rugby and football, yeah. You said it in your last
sentence.

Most of the violence in football is within a few yards of the line of
scrimmage. That is why they have different rules there. You have a
half dozen 300 pound guys on each side, lined up face to face snarling
at each other and on the snap they crash into each other as hard as
they can, on every play. They are not even allowed to grab each other,
they have to just knock the other guy out of the way. What could
possibly go wrong? Compared to that a scrum is just a big group hug.



I went to a rugby match last fall and saw the game was not much
different than when I was in college, back before electricity was
discovered. It's a rough and tumble game, for sure, but I didn't see any
Neanderthals lined up to kill or maim each other, nor anyone taking
anyone down as it is done in football. No extra violence. Pro football
is going to be sued out of existence, and the sooner the better.

Hehehe. I knew you'd bite on that one. You are so predictable. It was a
John Herring the Racist reference.

I have an ex-friend who told me he goes out to a field in southern
Maryland to shoot groundhogs and other small critters. Not critters
that are pestering any not really on a higher evolutionary scale than
"hooomans," but just living their little animal lives. Disgusting.

Tell us again about all of the volunteer work you do for
underprivileged minorities in DC and inner city Baltimore.
If nothing else you could teach classes on gun safety since they seem
to have so many accidental shootings. Actions speak much louder than
words.

Might be a group hug, but that's only to folks looking in from the outside:

https://www.kingsleynapley.co.uk/ins...s-of-the-scrum

"A scrum (short for scrummage) is a way of restarting play in rugby, where there has been a minor
infringement. In rugby union the scrum is made up of eight players from each team binding together
in 3 rows. The heads of the front row of the scrum will interlock their heads with the opposing
team’s front row. The ball is then thrown into the space between the two teams and the front rows of
both teams will compete for the ball by hooking the ball and sending it backwards with their feet,
whilst pushing the opposing team backwards.

When one considers the size and strength of the modern professional rugby player, it is no wonder
that so many players sustain spinal injuries whilst in the scrum, whether as a result of continuous
trauma over an extended period of time, or one high impact. This can be particularly dangerous where
the scrum collapses, due to the sheer force applied by each side."

He was *your* friend. He was 'disgusting' only after he told you he went varmint hunting?

You saw no tackles, eh? Must have been a girls rugby match. Either that or your bull****ting again.

Minnesota, Harry. And mostly rabbits. Squirrels are harder'n hell to clean.

Just unrewarding for the amount of meat you get.
