England Rugby

It's funny...I never really found myself cheering for the English soccer team in competitions because everyone in England always thought that the team was unbeatable....yet they always underperformed.

In the leadup to the Rugby World Cup (the final is tomorrow) the English team was getting beat regularly by the other top teams to the extent that nobody in England expected much. And what happened? Well...New Zealand, the runaway favorite, was beaten by France. England upset Australia in the quarters, the host French in the semis and now face South Africa in the finals. I'm cheering for England for a change.
