a mad obsession with a peanut-shaped ball
This fire takes me higher, a bit of desire I just can't deny.
Oh won't You come a little bit closer and be mine?

Two Thumbs up for England's New Rugby Design!
You may think its Soccer, like the EPL or the S.league, or you may think its Basketball, like NBA
, or a game that consists of a ball and a club, like Golf or baseball. But for a ball to be shaped as a peanut, I have no idea why a game of Rugby sends my adrenaline pumping away.
When I watch a match being played, be it the Americans or the Scottish, the scrums they do, the tackles they pull off, the number of tactical touchdown they did or just pure bashing through to the finish line, I can't help but respond to the game
"Come on!! Get the damn ball!!!!"
"You're nearly there!!!"
"Arrghhh!!!! How could you lose possession? You're so close to the touchdown point!!!"
And the enthusiasm continues. I guess the difference rugby makes from the rest of the game is the amount of body contact the players have with each other. It is quite admirable to see some of the strongest people on Earth not to be brought down on the ground even with 3-4 men grabbing you. Just looking at the soccer wussy fall on the ground with a tap on their feet is enough to give rugby credential why IT IS THE ULTIMATE GAME OF TACTICS AND ENDURANCE.
Yes, the Rugby World Cup is finally here after its 4 years cycle, and England won the the World Cup in 2003. It was also the start of a great love relationship between me and Rugby. And to prove my love for the sport, I have gotten myself the English rugby polo tee in Thailand~ Oh yea~ looking good~~
Australia looked like they had a good start, and though I have not a chance to look at my favourite team (England) play yet, I can't wait for their match with South Africa, happening on 14 September..! It is going to be a very great challenge for England, as South Africa makes a very formidable opponent to play with, as they are World Cup material. It is still early to predict who will be the winner of this match, but either teams needs to win this to get a spot in the finals. My bet is on England. After all, I'm an England Rugby Fan and they will pick a good fight to stay as Champions!! All the way ENGLAND!!!
To end it, here are some funny rugby commericals ive picked up from..yea, u guess it, YOUTUBE~ enjoy;)
You will probably be seeing this in your dreams if you're crazy about rugby..
Super hilarious!!!
