It's not that bad. I've yet to get a amjor injury playing rugby. But then I play in the backs, so I don't get quite the same experience Rugger gets, proping. Regardless, a friendly game is usually not too destructive, and it could always be a touch game.

Yes, I used to prop. I don't reccomend it for the sane or those with any sense of self-preservation.

But at least I wasn't 2nd row.

I am game though I have never played Rugby, I'd be willing to give it a shot. And as for basketball even though I wrestled in high school, I was raised in Indiana.

Heheh...I actually moved to 2nd Row as I got older...for Alumni Games (which is coming up in a month).

I've never gotten hurt (knocks on wood)...its one of the sports that it can be GOOD to have a gamer's physique! Now my girlfriend is a whole 'nother animal...she broke her hand playing last year...

Well, if this doesn't happen, we can always have a 3rd-half get-together!
