Still, what does being positive have to do with being hyp[ier[/icritical?'"
tut tut, it looks like you did mean hypocritical instead of hypercritical
dont you have some fancy degree or something from a uni?
oh my. |

Didn't see this post.
You do realise that criticism isn't always negative? You can be too critical with your positive criticism (even if it has a negative outcome overall). So you being "positive" (which is a joke anyway as I can show you a fair few "negative" posts about certain SL clubs/players, the AFL, etc.) has nothing to do with being hypERcritical.
I may be bad at spelling it times, but I do understand the words, Dally. Here you have clearly shown you do not. But at least you tried to understand, which is a start.
What's your version of hypOcritical then, whilst we're at it? And does you being "positive" stop you from that too? |

| Well I did keep trying to get him to answer the question regarding why he would drop all SL expansion plans for Stade Francais but not all NRL expansion plans for a South African franchise (hyperthetically speaking) but he wouldn't answer, using my spelling error as a cop out.
Oh, and Dally: I have intentionally spelled hyperthetically wrong. I know it's an "o"  |

[quote="dally messenger":1gysl9ow]was watching an nfl doco. on one of their teams and they used the term bomb to describe those long high passes from quaterback to running back and i think gibson took that idea, realized you cant throw the ball forward in RL and adapted it to a "bomb" kick we have[/quote:1gysl9ow]

| Quote: Wellsy13 " but he wouldn't answer, using my spelling error as a cop out.'" ...tell me about it. One of his now retired keyboard warrior mates on the NRL boards spent about 2 weeks referring to my gramatical errors when unable to reply to the point raised......it is a sign that you have won the point and the other person has no relevant comeback.
I have oftenwondered about Safrica as a potential League target....the way they play Union would point to them enjoying contact and they have produced some pretty good players over the years that wouldn't have looked out of place in the 13 man code.
There is a social/economic divide in the country that would maybe make it hard for poorer areas to accept anything with the name Rugby in it, but soccer (as it always does) has managed to grow significantly there over the last 20 years.....Maybe an exhibition series played there might be a good thing, or even the WCC Final.......? |

If you're going to pick other people up on spelling, Dally, you could have at least spelled the name of Stade Français correctly when you started the thread. |

i actually knew he meant hypocritical.
but it was just so funny stringing him along and hypercritical does have a meaning.
so when he asked me if i knew what it meant, i gave him the correct meaning.
i hope he reads those last 2 pages again, then hell understand how much amusement he gave me |

clearly you dont know what hypercritical means.

Have a read and see for yourself that RL is actually played there and if a team was to step up in the future (5-8 years), they have teams already in place that could help feed juniors into the side once it was established as it has roots already even though they mightn't be very strong, they do have them. |

Not sure if this point has been posted about SF's possible bid
SF are obviously a union side but were going nowhere with pitiful crowds until entrepreneur Max Guazzini took over in 1992
Recently, they have won four French championships in seven years and due to their original marketing ideas are able to sell-out some one-off games at the 80,000-seat Stade de France
They have now all but changed their name to Paris and their Pink shirts are now copied all over the place
No rugby club in the world in any code are run like this outfit...........so look out if they do try league

Port64, yes they can get a crowd, but they can't get that crowd every week.
In their usual stadium that holds 12k, they haven't had 1 crowd over 9k in decades if ever.
But I do agree about the guys being able to sell games when they want to, very impressive.
RL needs people like this.

Their normal crowds other than these one offs at the Stade de France are pitiful though and can be as low as 5,000. Saracens have got decent gates too at Wembley which are way more than their average, granted though the tickets only cost a few quid and they have lost money on the games, but it still helps to grow the club and the game.
It really is good how Rugby Union teams and bodies can market events like this into being something special and out of the ordinary but I guess the masses of free positive publicity that Rugby Union gets helps a lot. Rugby League seems to be unique in that its major events like internationals, Challenge Cup semi finals and the Millenium Magic get much lower crowds than some minor events and certainly much lower than they should. |
