Feb. 8th, 2003 05:50 pmOkay so this divides into two parts, wrestling and rugby.
Wrestling first - okay so I see all of it except the Sean O'Haire bit, but I can catch that on the replay. But really I hope they're paying Spanky (or whatever his real name is) a huge bonus. And I missed it for the best of reasons. The skiing world cup is on and they show a repeat of the Olympic downhill from 2002, so I now have that on tape.
Rugby - okay, Saints fans might be paranoid, but they are out to get our team. (On a paranoia trip, ours is allowed)
Okay, they've got to face Sydney Roosters in the world club challenge next Saturday. This week is the Challenge Cup fourth round. So there's the draw.
Wigan, hated enemies, get a non-league side.
Bradford, chief rivals, get Warrington, not bad team, but not brilliant either.
Saints get a French team. And oh no, they can't reschedule it or rearrange it so that they come over here, because Rugby League has to go to France to convert the Union heathens. And its in the deep south of France. So that's two days travel there, a day playing, and two days back. There's no way they're going to be fit and ready to play the Roosters.
So not fair.
