This is one subject which annoys me at the moment. Everywhere one turns, all I can see is ads for the Rugby world cup. I for one NEVER liked rugby in the first place. I recently had the game described to me as a group of men in shorts casing after a ball, (told you I'd use it) :)
Anyway, I thought this description was perfect. It seems half the population has gone made over a game that really isn't that entertaining. What has made it worse, for me and half my generation in New Zealand, is that the government thought it would be a good idea to change the school terms around. Now in my last year of high school I have even more stress imposed on me.
So maybe I'm venting, but I'd love to hear peoples opinions. I surly can't be the only one not liking this. I know I've talked to many people. No one I've spoken to is actually looking forward to it. Most people seem to just want it to end. I personally, cannot wait.
T.V, billboards, radio, you name it, and they'll be talking about it. Rugby may be labeled as our national sport, but I haven't spoken to one person recently who likes it anymore.
