Becoming a rugby fan!

So, now that soccer is dead to me I'm becoming more and more of a rugby fan!

This has been going on for only a couple of months now but I've been watching all of the Utah Warrior highlights on YouTube and I've been watching videos on the "laws" of rugby and I'm hooked. (I'm still a little hazy on some of the penalties that get called but all the basics I have down.)

The Warriors have three more home games this year, April 26th against the Chicago Hounds, April 30th against San Diego Legion, and May 12th against the Seattle Seawolves.

I am for sure going to make it to one of those games, (and when I do I will post some photos to prove it.)

But this is awesome, I'm going to have a team to follow and cheer for again. 

And I won't have to deal with one of the main reasons I left soccer, which was the constant diving and faking of injuries. (See my posts from years ago about Landon Donovan and Neymar.) 

There is no diving and faking injuries in rugby! Oh hell no, these men are men. Don't give me that soccer crap anymore, I watch a real sport now.

So all you soccer "supporters" out there, whatever Loyalists, Rogue Cavalier Brigade members, and wanna be hooligans that are still left, come follow a real sport. MLS is dying anyway, the USL is going to bury MLS once pro/rel becomes a reality in a couple of years. The USL is going to steal all of MLS' thunder, no one will care about MLS anymore, hell, no one cares about MLS right now. 

So start now and become a Utah Warriors fan, that way when RSL goes away, and it will, you won't care because you'll already be wearing a kick ass Warriors jersey.

And the Warriors logo is awesome, so much better than RSL's. C'mon, admit it.
