Had our first Rugby Tournament of the semester this year and it was fuckin AWESOME!!! got up at like 730 sat morning to drive up to Media, PA where we had out first game at 1000am. We played Ursinus and totally ripped them a new one. They got lucky and scored once but we came right back and got 2 tries and easily won. The second game we had was a little harder and we should have won but some bad calls and a missed 2pointer were the difference. Widner tried acting all tough after they beat us by saying "thats why you guys are B-side" which was the dumbest fucking thing ever said cause they were their schools A-side and we almost beat them.!!! what a bunch of fuckin morons. Anyway i didnt play in the first game and only played the second half in the second game, but we had one more game left, against Swarthmore. I played the entire game with the exception of the last 5 min at Inside-center and did some serious damage. I ran over a few guys, got in on like 2 big mauls and did some pretty good rucking. We had good plays and moved the ball usually with ease. They were so bad at scrumming that we had to play most of the game uncontested. Oh well we should have won by at least another 15 points but we had 2 tries called back because the ref was dumb and didnt think we had possession of the ball, whatever fuck her we won anyway. Everyone got nice and banged up but it was the most fun ive had since JV football. I realized that the lack of sports in my life had made me very depressed and very angry. And while i was out on the field i realized how much i missed the comraderie of sports and how much i needed to be out there again. I have found my passion again and nothing is gonna stop me. After all the games were done, we stopped at Pat's Cheesesteaks in Philly and again it was awesome. Finally got home, showered and hung around for like 30min before goin with my teammate to the ER to get him some stiches. Afterwards, we went to one of the Rugby houses for a great fuckin party which kicked major ass. Got drunk, stoned and had just an all around good time. Weekends rock
