Party peoples, it’s time to start our love hate relationship with the game we love, Rugby. It’s just like a wife, you can’t live with her, you can’t live without her (the views expressed in this line are neither those of the writer nor his thoughts). 2012 is the year of achievements (Golola will beat Nagy) and it looks set to be the most entertaining season ever (we used this same line for 2011, but what the heck, we have new resolutions every year, apart from M7, whose resolution since 86 has been to be pre_ _ _ _ _ t). This season is already a milestone ahead as it is going to be the first ever season with Friday games. Talk of Friday plot and visa for the married chaps that had been granted only two Satos in month to go out (read hang with the guys). The opening game this Friday will pit Toyota Buffaloes against G4S Pirates, in a mouth watering encounter that could see the game go either way. There will be lots of nyama choma (if you have the dimes or are pretty) and lots of drinks courtesy of the No. 1 fan of rugby, Nile Special Larger. The chaps do not want to know about inflation and are still out there to reward there very loyal fans, lots of prizes to be won, and not just on Friday but throughout the season as Nile Special has a lot of surprises this season. Come Friday gates open 8:00am (i swear). If you are on your way to work and you find traffic jam, just fall in and tell your boss you joined the KACITA strike over borrowed dimes (what are these guys even complaining about, just pay back the bank dimes………) game live at 4:30 pm, teams on the pitch, girls at the pitch side (dress code, skimpy with shades), women at the upper stands, wives at the nyama choma (Michael’s lounge) and mothers upstairs (so kids can play mummy and daddy), as for the chaps and gizas, may the best man win (get out of the gutter, am talking about the game here). I am closing this (oba what) with a challenge to the teams, after the game fans will fill the dotted line with name of the winning team, hence we know who it is that did this….(read below)
Twenty years ago, three kids were playing rugby along Jinja road when they were hit by a trailer. They all go to heaven and God says to them, ‘you were not supposed to die, you were all supposed to live out your lives. This was not your time. To make it up to you, i will let you choose what you want to do with your life. Take a running jump off of that cloud over there, and you are flying back down to earth, shout out what you want to do and so it shall be.’
The first kid takes a running leap and shouts ‘lawyer’ and so, twenty years later (today), he is a very successful lawyer, making lots of money with an upcoming appointment to the bench. The second kid takes his turn and shouts ‘brain surgeon’, and so 20 years later (today), he is the most admired man in his field of medicine and making a ton of money saving lives. The third kid goes to take his turn, and as he runs, he trips over his own feet and stumbles off the cloud muttering ‘stupid clumsy arsehole’. Twenty years later (Friday) he is playing the backline for…………………………………………
That settled can we meet on Friday (oh crap forgot to mention the venue: kyadondo, kyadondo, kyadondo….the ones i had missed earlier) at or before but not later than 4:30pm, at the all new kyadondo rugby grounds (the loos are new that counts…). See ya
