Agree on the number of douchey competitors but the single most annoying one to watch wasn’t due to the competitor but her douchey diva of a son who kept doing look-at-me flips and handstands while Mom was on the course. Of course, the cameras kept cutting to him... 

Not eligible this year because of the late start to the season.

No, our life sentences are not capped at 25 years. Life is life; 25 years is the earliest a person convicted of 1st degree murder can apply for parole though it is by no means automatic.

The way they explained it was that, ultimately, the ref has two responsibilities: player safety and fair play. A number of those fends fail in both…

Not when they are delivered to the neck.

So many stiff arm fends at the neck level. Anything that high is illegal in rugby.
