[QUOTE="goodNumber10, post: 728454, member: 71068"] Remember that story from before... Football is huge, we all know that, so the lowest common denominator is prevalent in its fans, but rugby is not exempt from its idiots and bigots (as we see only to well on these forums). I love the camaraderie of rugby, and the extended family ethos but it's the constant self righteousness of rugby fans compared to football is what I find a bit hard to stomach. Honestly I care very little for football, like playing it never watch it, so I don't really get why we constantly have to compare our sport to it. Not sure that makes sense.. [/QUOTE]
