Union or league?

I don't play, but I know a bit about how.

I'd love to see an AMerican Football team V a British rugby team, each play the others game. Would be amusing.

Ah, now there's a game, not like football or American football, but a real sport!

Screw baseball and cricket, in this you really get action. So I wish I could go back to the days when I played it at school (think it was union, I forget which is the better of the two).

Probably Union - most common in schools.

couple of dull cricket facts -
1st International Cricket game - Canada V United States

Baseball was invented by US Cavalry during the Civil War - who reworked cricket so they could play without the extensive flat areas needed.

damned if i know. a kid in my library told me he was starting a team, and wanted me on it. apparently my very calm zenness is a cover for massive volcano of violence, and rugby is all about that.
