HEEEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYYYYY !!!!!!!!!!!! Are you two shortsighted, read the ***le of the thread, it's Top 14 2015 season !! Not let's roast Ewis to the max O Rama !!!! You sneaky plotting little badgers, you !!! Mauvaises langues !!!! So here I am, waking up after another miserable sleeping night, waking up way worse than the previous horrible day, looking for some quick distractions online on my beloved Top 14 boards and BAM !!! There's an entire discussion on just how shiitty I am !!!
SCREW THIS !!! I'm outta here !!!ç!!!!!!!!.....well no not really, I still feel like posting...but seriously you guys !!
For the record though:
I started watching Rugby seriously as late as during the 2011 RWC, before that I was a casual watcher, didn't know players, positions, all the rules...Toulouse have always represented this French powerhouse for me, and by the time I watched with fervor, Picamoles, Dusau, Nyanga, Doussain, David, Clerc and all those guys I was a big fan of were Toulouse players. Just one look at Servat, and it summarizes Rugby for me and the nostalgia of watching France play.
Right now, I wear Toulouse because they still mean a lot to me and I'm a fan of their players, but as an organization they disappoint me too much and I can't help but be lucid about their mediocrity, and sometimes, downright unacceptable failures.
Since returning to France for good, here in the Var, I do have a big penchant for Toulon, the family atmosphere they have there, how happy the players are, Pilou Pilou, Boudjellal's occasional intelligent remark and outside-the-box thinking, Wilko, crazy Bernard Laporte, their consistency and their commitment on the ground, their professionalism and how they represent the new Toulouse in many ways, how they're keeping French Rugby dominant on the European scene. As I go downtown here, I see RCT stickers and logos on cars, bars...ppl have loved the RC Toulon since the Herrero days, and aren't bandwagon fans (like me
) who started loving them since 2013 when they started winning.
I wish I could wear both Toulouse and Toulon, but I'll keep with Toulouse right now.
