Rugby League Season KO 2nd February hey hey


Having had no Rugby League to watch over the last few months 
and being in need of an oval ball fix, 
I turned in desperation to watching Sky's coverage of the 
kick and rush version. 

I can truthfully say that my levels of mind-boggling boredom 
have rarely reached such heights 
or should I say lows 
(perhaps only when watching ice melt). 
However, on closing my eyes and listening to the commentators 
I felt that I was listening to the greatest games ever played. 
There were so many superlatives used that 
I am sure that they must have a 
'Dictionary of Superlatives' close to hand. 
They can make a three yard run by a lumbering prop forward seem like 
Usain Bolt winning a gold medal.

A Letter to our weekly Rugby League Newspaper - and I love it!!!
