What a road trip!

Ted Orbach and his Dad took a trip that would keep any sportsman on the edge of his seat. This summer they visited the Baseball Hall of Fame, the Basketball Hall of Fame, Football Hall of Fame and Soccer Hall of Fame. The trip began as they headed south after a Denville Dawg Rugby match to watch their beloved Philadelphia Phillies play.

Is the next stop the Youth Rugby Hall of Fame? Where is that anyway?

With the 10 year anniversary of the attacks on the US approaching we reached out to Rugby Magazine Editor Ed Hagerty to help us remember the cops, fire fighters and and other private citizens who were also members of rugby clubs.  The first 14 gentlemen perished in the Twin Towers.  Jeremy Glick and Mark Bingham were aboard United Flight 93 and were part of the "Let's Roll" team that is presumed to have attacked the hijackers which caused the plane to miss it's target in Washington DC but as we know crashed in a field in Pennsylvania.   If you are so inclined, keep them and their families in your thoughts.
