    Episode 143 - Like a Beach Against the Tide, Weekend Wrap Up, and More!

    Wherein I am overjoyed by the reasonable amount of top notch rugby, what a weekend! I definitely don’t mention my shame for picking against my beloved Free Jacks, and unless you’re one of the few people reading this, you’d never know! Oh yes, I feel pretty sure I manage to insert a heaping dollop of silliness, as well.

    Episode 142 - On the Faculty at Tackle School, Weekend Wrap Up, and More!

    Wherein I get very excited for the return to European action, as well as another win for my Free Jacks. I feel pretty sure I manage to insert a heaping dollop of silliness, as well.

    Episode 141 - I'm Making A Huge Mistake, Weekend Wrap Up, and More!

    Wherein I manage to greatly tone down the absurd scope of the coverage last week, enjoy a few upsets and bounce-backs, and, just now as I write this, get weirdly excited for the return of the EPCR! Hopefully, I manage to insert a modicum of silliness, as well.
