Subject: RE: BS: Rugby League
Thank you Les! That goes a long way toward explaining things.

Cricket? Well, we don't get enough rugby televised here. How much cricet do you imagine we get? One half hour per week summary at most! It's far better than Yankee baseball, but, then again, any sport that can't be watched to full time in the time it takes to drink a case of beer ain't gonna fly here.

Thank goodness we get a couple of English Premirership football games per week.... live! Yes, we get French, German, Italian, Spanish, and some others, too, but.... eeeh.

Now. Why did the uniforms of goal judges in Aussie rules change to Yankee style? I mean, gosh, "baseball caps" instead of those jaunty... ah.. er... whatever the hell those things are called? And, golf shirts instead of suit jackets and ties?
