Unlike Stephen Webb I quite like soccer (granted, I am a girly crypto-collectivist), but I think we can agree that rugby is a great, manly sport. Why else would The Art of Manliness offer a primer on it?:
Rugby as it exists today is one of the most exciting contact sports in existence, a perfect mix of the speed and movement of soccer and the hard hitting physical nature of American football. The Rugby World cup is the third most watched sporting event in the world, trailing close behind the FIFA World Cup and the Summer Olympics. While Americans love our football, the rest of the world loves their rugby. Indeed, the 2003 World Cup had a collective audience of over 3.5 billion , and was broadcast in 205 different countries. Maybe it’s time we Americans see what all the fuss is about . . .
