Just occassionally someone loses their life because of it.

O Jesus wept. Watching the reds playing the lions. Red and white. Both uniforms. What moron decided this would be a great spectacle. TV truly screws designer uniforms. Especially when the teams get clever and add splashes of "colour" to their uniforms. Both teams end up being washed out when…

But don't worry, there'll always be handball, real tennis and cheese-rolling to watch on Sommet.

Looking at the TV guide you are screwed when it comes to the all blacks game

For me, BBQ is a necessary corollary of beer and sports. It doesn't feel right to watch rugby without my hair smelling of smoke.
