I will check out that movie Invictus. It is a refreshingly noble sport - it makes the NFL look like Jerry Springer's show with pads in comparison. Your family members playing rugby internationally is all time great, particularly for future generations in your family. I wish I was younger so that I could play. Last month I found out where our local pick up games were, but I know they'd snap me in half if I tried to play.

As they say: "Cheers!"
