USA v. Italy Rugby Match

   Well, I just got home from the match, and it was a disappointment only in the final score. Yes, the Eagles lost, 10-30 against Italy, but...
  • Italy is higher ranked, about 5 spots in the IRB rankings
  • We played a large part of the game down two players
  • A record crowd of 17,214 were on hand
  • I got to spend time with the wife and boys
   All in all, a great night. Bit hot, though, so when they come back, let's shoot for a fall game, please? And with a record crowd - even with the Astros playing right before hand only a few blocks away - I am hopeful that we will draw more matches to Houston in the future.
