I can't stand rugby. I just hate it with a fiery passion.

...Which is odd, because my maternal grandfather actually played for Wales before the war.

There are very few contact sports that I don't follow in some capacity. I even have a favorite Aussie Rules team.

It's fun to play. I think...I only played it once, and that wasn't violent.

In cricket, no one likes them. I don't know why. I just remember all the Australia shit-talking my uncles did when they played Sri Lanka for the championship.

It's an arrogance thing. It's very annoying.

We've got a local multi-culti cable station that runs Aussie Rules games.

Fun enough to watch, though I never picked a team to follow.

Would've never guessed. I had a friend in HS who was a diehard fan.

They're the two richest sporting organisations in the world IIRC (Real Madrid may be richer, I don't know), so it's a cross-marketing thing.
