Some people play sports for glory, some for exercise, some for money.
The members of The Woodlands Rugby Club, winners of the USA Rugby National Division II championship last weekend, gain no glory, exercise no caution and lose money in the offing. Here, we pay our own expenses for road trips, but there's something to be said for playing a sport for the sheer love of the sport. It's really quite nice because we still have a lot of the amateur aspects of the game. When you play it like this, you can see why this game has been going on for such a long time. The Woodlands Club traveled last week to Rockford, Ill., with the players dipping into their pockets to pay for the trip to the finals.
