			<description><![CDATA[Great interview with Rocco Mauer. Nice to see his work ethic. The kid has unlimited potential. Did extremely well for his first international tournament. Has the unique ability to change gears almost at full speed. Nice to see coach Mags is coaching players up. Can't wait to see them play again.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[thanks for the clarification. I think exclusionary is exactly the right word. I dont think something that is exclusionary, necessarily makes it wrong, but the extent of the exclusion is definitely worth discussing.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[racist may have been wromg word given its PC connotations that get taken out of proportion with the issue. exclusionary is a better word. we'll have anyone on to discuss. someone on gainline suggested rich cortez, he'd be fantastic. be good to shed light. we can get hold of rich and see.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[it's kind of weird that you are assuming that all foreigners, mormons, and poor people who have to wait before they go to college are minorities. you need to have someone from the committee who decided this on, so you can ask them if they are a racist.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Older does not mean they are better. You just need to work harder. Those higher caliber teams will eventually elevate the standard of play of the other teams in the division, making the total quality of the game better. I for one am excited about collegiate rugby's future and age should not be a concern. I think eligibility should be modeled after the NCAA's system, it's a proven system that works.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[there may be no intent (doubt it) but it hurts, mormons, foreigners, islanders, poor kids and helps the weaker players and teams who happen to have more financial resources whatever the semantics, its designed to hurt specific groups and teams.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[[quote name="Age is NO MATTER"] yes there are a select few youngsters that do play internationally , because they have been playing since they could walk, but thats not how things are in the US. It is not that we are afraid of a challenge. I have gone up against the likes of BYU, played for the West all stars as a 18year old. do dont give me that macho man golf BS. the new rules are to help promote competition. size is a big influence with age but years of experience. the reason D1 football has no problems is because football is a universal sports and everyone starts playing at a young age. unfortunately that is not rugby, these new rules will help promote competition and create a competitive division. Older players with more experience can go play for a mens team against other players with similar experience.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[You do not understand what a racist rule is. Just because it affects minorities more, doesn't make it racist. there has to be intent. There is no intent here. By your logic, a whole lot of rules/laws we have is racist since many of them negatively affect minorities more than whites. For example, charging money for public transportation. A line has to be drawn somewhere. Not everyone gets to play college sports.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Bruce Teams are fed up of being hamstrung at their universities while others do things like recruit D3 club men at age 25 to play in the college game, and then have to compete at nationals with them. Sorry dude, but this is not right. If it doesn't change then there will be no nationals because the new conferences will do their own thing. If you are happy with that then leave the crazy system alone and let it all fall apart.]]></description>
