The Road Woes Continue?Plus A Quick Rugby Re-Cap
2008-03-23 16:22:00 Well the road losing streak continued yesterday as the Whites fell to Newcastle 2-0. It was King Kev’s first victory since his return to the most over rated club in the history of English football. Yeah I’m bitter. In the grand scheme of things, the loss really didn’t hurt us much but we are now in ...

Rugby On Setanta This Weekend
2008-02-28 23:41:00 Super 14 and a single Magners League fixture will be available for viewing in the States this weekend on Setanta Sports. There will also be delayed Guinness Premiership on tap. Rugby isn’t the “highlight” for me this weekend, as my weekend will revolve around Fulham’s big match with Manchester United. Even though none of this weekend’s ...

Rugby Weekend USA

The Premiership has the week off due to the FA Cup and I only passively watch the other European leagues, so I’m not all that interested. Yes, there are some interesting FA Cup match ups this weekend but the fact of the matter ...

The “Gol” portion of this blog may take the week off, but the “Try” portion will be rockin’ full steam ahead as Super 14 & Euro club rugby will take center stage. Let’s start with the “Euro” ...

Guinness Premiership Standings
2007-11-27 15:17:00 I've found myself covering more soccer than rugby lately. I hope to change that in the future, especially with the 7's World Series about to begin. I haven't even watched much rugby since the end of the Rugby World Cup. This blog was mainly set up to cover USA Rugby and once the Super League begins in March, you will see increased coverage.I wanted to take a moment and provide the updated Guinness Premiership Standings.Pos.

GP: Updated Table
2007-10-08 15:38:00 With the Rugby World Cup going on, I haven't had much time to blog about the Guinness Premiership, Currie Cup or the Air New Zealand Cup. Well I'm only partially interested in the Currie & Air New Zealand Cup, but I'm VERY interested in the Guinness Premiership.

RWC: Friday & Saturday Results
2007-09-16 14:27:00 There were a couple of reasons I haven't posted since Friday. One, my son is spending the weekend with me and I've been pretty busy, so I haven't had a chance to get online until now. Second, up until this morning, all the matches this past weekend have all been pay per view matches and I'm not to the point financially were I can spend $24.95 on like 4 or 6 matches. I will catch up today as the matches that was televised yesterday on pay per view will be on Setanta Sports today.With that being said, here's some quick results from Friday & Saturday:South Africa-36England-0New Zealand-108Portugal-13Australia--32Wales-20And the shocker of the day...Ireland-14Georgia-10I can't wait to watch that Ireland vs Georgia match today. Just by looking at that final score you can tell that Georgia must have put up a real inspired effort.Also the Guinness Premiership got under way yesterday, so here are those results:Bath-29Worcester-15Harl-equins-35London Irish- 27Saracens-29London Wasps-...
