Blog Guy, I’m looking to join a rugby team. I saw your item about Naked Rugby, but I seem to recall there are two different kinds of rugby. Is that right?
Sure. There’s the Stark Naked Rugby, and then there’s the Traditional Old-Fashioned Rugby.
Right! Traditional Old-Fashioned, that’s the one I want. I’m in! Tell me about it.
Well, you smoke a pipe and wear a top hat and frock coat, and zip around on your Segway, as you…
Wait a minute, Blog Guy. If this is Traditional Old-Fashioned Rugby, what are they doing on Segways?
Oh, they use older Segways, not the brand-new models.
This is just stupid, Blog Guy. I’d feel like a total dork, riding a Segway and smoking a pipe during a rugby match. Count me out of Traditional Old-Fashioned Rugby!
Okie dokie, it’s your call. Take off your clothes…

Innovative shading on the huddle photo to replace the salmon bars?
Holmes and Watson on Seqways… Sherlock is good at disguises; maybe he is on the nude team! Who’d know?
Q. What do you get if you cross a traditional rugby player with the naked variety?
A. A segway with a pull starter.
There’s a wide range between over-dressed and undressed when playing rugby, or any sport for that matter.

My chiropractor’s tattoo artist is designing uniforms for the nude league players.
Oh, the re-enactors! They have more fun in MI than in VA. When the confederate troops left their skirmish field, they were rounded up by the WWI re-enactors!
This is so Flying Circus
Tally-o moustache, tally-o!
Kim, the sumo player, got lost and ended up in a rugby huddle. His team-mates were shocked when he lifted them one by one and threw them out of the pitch.
I agree, Malt..
Though I think Sherlock is playing at being Superman..
Hmm…Shra..given the presence of a moustache, one could say he’s playing Fuhrer too…
