Cowboys

Ok before I go too further into explaining my torrid affair with America, let me tell you one thing that has really caught my attention. It's American football.

Now that I have played rugby I can definitely say that it's somewhat of a meak kind of sport. You get all that gear to protect you from the hits and it really seems not so much hard work...I know, I know...I understand that it might seem upsetting to some of my readers that I say this, but let me add something before you pick up the phone and shout down my ears some random profanity - rugby is nowhere near so much fun as a sport.

You see, American football is all about action, speed and entertainment. Some rugby games are just plain boring since the guys are on the field for 80 mins constantly and if they are not in shape, they are all puffed out within the first 20 mins...American Football keeps you to the edge of your seat in a way rugby sometime doesn't - it is not about stamina, but it is way more about tactics and game strategy.

I know Bronwen, I know I have lost every right to ever make it back to London! I know that America is not spelled I R O N Y.
