[QUOTE="Yankee_Doodle, post: 779795, member: 73720"] Bee, I'm not too optimistic about the PRO Rugby organization at this point. From what I know they are supposed to start playing this year but they only have two confirmed locations and they haven't released any information about players or coaches. I could conceive it working, though. We have University play across the country along with multiple divisions of play, so we do have players and something of a fan base even if it is modest. But to pay for the venues, travel, and salaries? That seems a bit of a long shot. Thanks lhprop. I haven't had a chance to see Cleveland. I saw [I]a[/I] Cincinnatti team play but I'm not sure that it was the same D1 Wolfhounds because they got absolutely crushed by the Dayton team they played. That game was so brutal the Cincy boys were throwing up trying to keep pace. They didn't seem to have anybody in reserve, either. I've also seen a Columbus team play, and I know the Buckeyes field a team but I've missed out on them so far as well. I find its really hard to find team and schedule information online. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Oh, I'd also like to mention that I follow the Premiership a bit since they have good full-length replays available right on the website. For as little as it matters, I decided to root for Gloucester based on the simple fact that I've been there and had a wonderful time. [/QUOTE]
