In the USA many people don’t know much about such kind of sports as Rugby. And those people, who saw it, didn’t show much enthusiasm. It seems that they just don’t understand it. In Rugby the action is constant and it is tough kind of sports, there is no place there for weak people. There is an opinion that that’s why French don’t like to play Rugby. But we are speaking about Americans who also don’t play this game, although Rugby is typical for American sports and Americans like to play tough.
But the explanation is not very difficult. It is not because of incomprehension of this kind of sport. The reason of low popularity of Rugby in the USA is that because this game is not played in the States at ll. In general Americans should play Rugby because in contrast to Football, there are no time-outs in Rugby in order to catch breath. It is one more proof that Rugby is not for weak ones.
American professional football players wear a lot of clothes and other protective things which cost significant amount of money in order to play for several seconds. Although they are considered to be super athletes in the USA, only some of them can run the marathon. And as for Rugby players, they really can be called one of the best athletes.
