Rants of an Annoyed Angel

I found out this evening that more ruggers than I thought read this here blog. Hi. I’m shocked that this one person reads this here blog. So, Hi! Thank you.  You know who you are. Thank you.

And thank you to every other rugger who reads that I don’t know about… (You should probably tell me so I don’t tell your dirty secrets here. Just sayin.)

You all know I love rugby, and the PRFC. And I assume you know it kills me that I could not play this season. I’m not a great player, yet I like to think I contributed in the past. But it kills me that I can’t go to Nationals, even as a spectator….

With that in mind, I appreciate what my ruggers and my Twitter friends did for me last year. More than I can ever explain in words. You paved my way to Nationals. And I love all of you for that. So much.

So this year, I’m going to donate part of my tips from My Living Room to help someone in need. Or to offset the hotels. Whatever. Just to get my whole team to the field. I don’t care. I was incredibly blessed last year, and I need to pay it forward. (I hope someone does the same next year.)

I’m so nervous for my Angels… SO. NERVOUS. I know my team. I know they can do this. And I’ll be here, in the ‘Burgh, with one of my friend’s girlfriends hanging out. Freaking the heck out, waiting for scores and the outcome.

But, Angels, I have the nerves on lock-down. Don’t be nervous. I have all the nerves you want to have concentrated on ME!!! You CAN DO THIS. And YOU WILL DO THIS. For me, for My Living Room (who loves you, BTW) and every one else who loves you. Beat the pants off of Raleigh, or any other opponent.

Please, please bring me home a National Championship. Please.

And to help you, I have these same videos (I looked for new ones, but these ones still make me want to throw caution to the wind and play again!)

BRING ME A NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE, Angels. Do it!

That’s apparently Steven Berkoff in that video. I had no idea. Thanks to the comments. Yay!

And, more! Make me happy, ladies!!!

Amazing video of All Blacks captains through the years.

If you don’t know about or love the Haka, we’re not friends. Yeah.

Seriously, these videos are rugby AMAZING!!!

God help me, it’s nearly impossible to find women’s rugby videos for my level or higher on YouTube.  So we’ll settle for these collegiate level ones:

The Female Rugby Athlete – from USA Rugby’s Women’s Rugby Initiative Channel

Why Do I Play Rugby? – from Yale Women’s Rugby

Bring it home Angels. I know you can. I KNOW YOU CAN. AND WILL BRING IT HOME TO ME at My Living Room.

I’ll miss you all while you are gone. You have no idea. I love you.

From the one All Blacks video:

The road we’ve traveled,
Becomes the passion that drives us
To become who we were born to be.

Do THIS, Ladies. Bring me home a National Championship. Fight for me who is now happy. Take my old anger (you know who you are!) and adopt it. Make it your own. Please!  Make this happen!!

Love you and wish you the best of luck.

And I’ll be updating the PRFC site as needed.
