If you’ve been in a white person’s apartment or home you might have noticed a ball that looks like a cross between an egg and a football. It is a Rugby ball and it is an important sport for white people.
They love Rugby for a number of reasons, the first of which is the fact that it is not very popular in North America. In fact, it is even less popular than soccer which gives a white person that all important edge in the contest to see who likes the most obscure sport. Though this is important, it is not the real reason why white people love the sport so much.
Rugby’s greatest appeal lies in its uniforms.
Unlike other sports where jerseys are made out of nylon or mesh, Rugby jerseys are like thick sweatshirts with collars! In fact there is no other jersey on earth that can move so seamlessly from the playing field to the farmers market
Many white people first acquire a love of rugby during their high school and college years by playing either for a school team or in the case of highly advanced white people-part of an intramural league. In fact, many white people will continue to play the sport into their early 30s at local parks on Saturday morning. If you are looking to expand your group of white friends, you would be wise to get yourself invited to one of these games. However, you should be prepared to have your crotch grabbed.
Though playing the sport is the most common way for white people to become interested in Rugby, a great number of them pick up a taste for the game while studying abroad in Australia or New Zealand. Like soccer, they are given the chance to purchase a scarf of their adopted team, but more importantly they can acquire a Rugby jersey. Unlike a soccer scarf, they can wear this garment all year long which provides for a more reliable trinket that can be used to initiate conversations about their time down under. For extra credit, some white people will declare that they are into Australian Rules Football and not Rugby. If you wish to friend this person, it’s best to ask them about the differences in rules because they will be thrilled to tell you.
Aside from playing the game with white people, there is one other surefire way to use rugby for your own personal gain. If you have determined that the white person you are talking to prefers rugby over soccer, it is strongly advised that you say: “you know, American Football players might be bigger, but rugby players are so much tougher.” Their response will be to tell you about how Football players are weak because they wear pads. This will be followed by a knowing nod or wink in your direction and an invitation to join them for a game on the weekend.
How about lacrosse?
my boyfriend loves rugby, but he’s european, so he’s not a try-hard, right?
You forgot the mandatory mass beer drinking. It’s a feature.
You also need to have a broken nose to go with the rugby jersey.
Hire a proofreader.
Rugby is the worst sport ever
5th hell yeah!!
i mean 6th!!
damn!!
I think this one is a bit of a reach. I know no white people who like or talk about Rubgy, and I’m pretty white.
I’m white and I despise rugby!

Ultimate Frisbee Yo!
You’re like a giant, slaying wide swaths of hippies with your mighty Club of Ridicule.
LOVE IT! you seriously make my day… everday!
in england historically rugby was the upper class sport and football for the lower classes. indeed, rugby remains very white in europe both in terms of fans and more importantly players. football is almost dominated at the top level by african and latin players and is followed passionately in africa and latin america – rugby most definitely is not (with the exception of south africa of course – another legacy of afrikaaner rule).
so rugby truly is something white people like, and play, in the indigenous home of white people.
that’s why the post “the idea of soccer” is a brilliant distinction – football itself is not a “white thing.”
kill yourself
SATURDAY’S A RUGBY DAY! And the post-game drink-ups are an integral part of any rugby team.
Also, playing women’s rugby proves how open-minded you are and is an excellent place to make gay friends. Very, very few straight women play rugby. And even then, they’re generally straight but not narrow.
about College Basketball/Football? No one watches Rugby.
http://www.asusportsreport.com
I play rugby, and I’m white, and your post is spot-on and fucking hilarious and painfully true.
you should have done something on hockey. its a popular sport where the core audience are mainly white people.
college students like rugby too!

Good entry, could have done without the crotch grab remark, the “wrong” kind of White People are always finding gay subtext when it isn’t there.
Black people *******SUCK******* at rugby because they never, ever pass the ball.
I’m white, and I’m not a real big fan of rugby so….what does that make me?
http://www.clayton-nichols.com
Hello, this blog is quite funny, indeed this article is like the idea of football : It doesn’t work in France/England/Ireland/South Africa/Australia/Argentina/Italy, which are actually real rugby countries.
@Tommy : yeah in England historically it’s the upper class who plays rugby, but in France it’s historically the southwest of France low & middle classes. And rubgy is less and less a “white-only” sport.
Ha, ha. This is dead on. My college roommates joined an intramural rugby team where no one knew any of the rules or even how to play but they loved bragging about how “rough” it was and they would always come to the bar later with grass stains on their shirts to show off how hard-hitting they were. It was painful to watch.

Ha, amen to ultimate frisbee. For those people who are STILL stuck on the fact that only a small minority of white people they know are into the stuff on this blog, you’re missing the point. These white american rugby fans are not your typical jocks or 3 Doors Down lovers, they’re more like the people who consider themselves hip and “indie.”
I only have one friend who is into rugby (plays on some Detroit rugby league). So this post is amusing because it makes me think, “yeah, he is so white!” It doesn’t matter that none of my other friends are into it (but I’m sure some wish they were!).
Flankers rule!
Mark, you clearly just aren’t white enough. Maybe you should spend a little more time eating an expensive sandwich, going to graduate school and watching Arrested Development. Then you’ll get it. 🙂
This is the only post that sucks, sorry. Huge fan otherwise.
maybe 1% of white people like Rugby.
I’m sitting next to two white people who don’t know what Rugby is, but have laughed and agreed with every other post so far.
http://www.tucc.org
I absolutely love this one! Maybe I’m a geeky, liberal, Blue State hipster after all…
I played rugby at Hampden-Sydney, after four years of it at prep school. Main attraction was the mandatory keg at practice and massive drinking parties, to “complement” the usual frat events.
And my wife absolutely hates the authentic Scottish national team ball I display, proudly, on our bookshelf. At least my two year old will still play with it.
boo to spam! (btw, that’s probably because the college people you’re thinking of are white.)
Look what you’ve started http://stufflatinpeoplelike.com/ , now the whole world will know the secrets of the whole world. There is one of these sites for everything now.
This rugby post makes no sense whatsoever. Either you’re running out of ideas or all of the recent attention is going to your head.
One contrast between Rugby and Footy (Australian Football) is that the Footy players wear sleeveless singlets that are skin tight. And they play on a circular field.
Yes, while in Australia, I bought both a Wallaby Rugby Jersey (for the national team) and a Footy Singlet. At least I could wear the Rugby jersey outside without looking stupider than usual.
No, this entry doesn’t fit the general theme of the site. Liberal, urban, upper-middle class hipsters won’t play rugby because the risk of physical injury is too great.
WHITE PEOPLE LIKE CLEANING UP FOR THE MAID!!!!
“but more importantly they can acquire a Rugby jersey. Unlike a soccer scarf, they can wear this garment all year long which provides for a more reliable trinket that can be used to initiate conversations about their time down under.”

Hockey is for poor whites. Upper-middle-class whites (the wites described by this site) don’t give a crap about hockey.
It makes you an American.
Well there has always been a snob value to Rugby as opposed to football or even rugby league ( industrial Northern England code).
Public school ( private schools) all play Rugby. Oxford and Cambridge all are into Rugger, so in England football (soccer) is much less valued than Rugby.
It makes sense that white peole would like Rugby, or even the concept of Rugby.
Rugby is stuff that white/polynesian people like…
There are a lot of Tongans, Samoans, and Fijians who play rugby… probably a much higher percentage of them play than white people.
How ever it is white people who have never played the game and have no clue about the rules who buy Ralph Lauren “Rugby” shirts for $100 each.
that’s what white Canadian people like

BS! The sport while people like is disc golf. Everyone knows that. Re-post!
You white folks are just plum loco.
HAHAHHA this is sooooo white!! Trendy white people are now criticizing you because you found some success. I.E. – You know Dave Matthews was so much cooler when I heard him in a pub you posers just don’t understand you overpaid for you tickets I saw the real Dave….. hahahahaha.. this post has brought out the true whiteness of some of the readers
I am just about 93 items on your list so far and this one is incredibly off base. I must agree with the person who wrote about lacrosse-that is the whitest sport in Private High Schools across the country (I know its Native American roots-no need to bash me on calling it the “whitest sport”).
Are you running out of ideas? Because if you need some, there is always Target, Italian fashion designers (think Chrisitan Loubiton), Banana Republic, convertibles, the color taupe (as seen on many, many a living room wall in the homes of WASPS)…
McCain hates lacrosse.
female rugby players are more open minded!
spot-on, SWPL! I actually cited my brief rugby experience yesterday… with the caveat of only having played it for one season because of the fear of killing someone/being killed.
love it.
or here’s a good topic: Feedback.
rugby is not popular with anyone, much less white people. however, rugby people are pretty damn white. as for me, i prefer the shirts over the sport and the AFL over rugby as well. and, yes, i would be happy to explain the difference – too freakin’ funny.
Yes, lacrosse! Better yet – field hockey.
Sorry, but as a white person I must completely disagree with this one. American Football (NFL, NCAA) only please.

not sure about this one. argentina, fiji, samoa, and new zealand (high maori influence)all excel at rugby.

thank god somebody realizes this other than me….
Rugby is a lot of fun. As a prop (loosehead), I prefer the scrum. Not a lot of questions. Just form meets power.
Rugby players are tougher? Quite possibly true. But football players are far and away far larger, stronger, and more dangerous. Without pads, O and D Lineman would literally kill themselves, at least at the higher levels. Guys would go to the hospital daily with internal bleeding.
And this is coming from a guy who presently plays both at the collegiate level.
Weak. I don’t know any white people who play rugby
Other things white people like: increasing their “fauxphistication” factor by talking about their euro boyfriend / girlfriend.
Rugby is an ambiguously gay sport if there ever was one.
best rugby team in the world are the All Blacks NZ.

Perhaps you should cap your list off at 100 and call it a day. Satire works when it’s based in truth, yet each entry seems to be more and more out of line from the original themes. Maybe you’re appealing to a narrower audience. Or maybe you’re just losing your touch. When I read that you had a book coming out, I actually believed it until I realized it was an April Fool’s Day joke. Oh wait, it isn’t. The best part is that your tome is undoubtedly going to end up on the clearance pile at an Urban Outfitters.
Great post. Very true. It’s too bad you didn’t get into the dynamic of the “rugby queen”. This is a suprisingly unfortunate distinction. If any ladies are ever at a rugby party and hear that you are up for “rugby queen”, run, don’t walk, to the nearest exit. Lol.
Well, I thought this post was funny, though I must agree that even among the white people this blog lampoons, rugby fans are rare. Perhaps the headline should have been “Truly Elite White Person Interest: Rugby” Then again, maybe I’m just jealous because I’m not white enough sometimes.
😛
How white is rugby? The South African national team won this past year and there were protests across the country because too many of the players were white! GO ALL BLACKS!!! (it’s a rugby thing…)
Another contrast is that footy is about 20 times more entertaining that rugby. I’m convinced that the only reason it hasn’t caught on in the US is because 1) almost no one here has ever seen a footy match 2) we don’t have cricket fields to play it on.
LOL American football players wear pads b/c Teddy Roosavelt was starting a movement to completely ban the sport in response to too players actually dying during games.
Whenever twatbag rugby fans ask why football players wear pads and rugby players don’t, I tell them that, and they’re just like “oh.”
Watch kickoffs, receivers get continually crushed over the middle w/ no way to protect themselves, and QB’s get killed in the pocket on a blind blitz by a 300lber running a 4.8 40 yard dash (force = mass x acceleration. ouch.). Imagine that happening w/out badding to absorb some of the force. That’s why players were dying, and that’s why Roosavelt almost banned it entirely.
It should be noted that white people like football over rugby b/c football players picked on them in high school, had the wherewithall to not take life seriously until college while white people were “studying to get ahead” (I graduated high school w/ a 2.2 gpa and college w/ a 3.7 in biopsych/premed, so what does that tell you), were arrogant, and got all the girls. These white people have no idea that rugby players are 10x’s worse than football players, but white people think anything that’s euro is great, so I just tend to let them be.
Oye! Polynesians play Rugby, probably something like Australian rules, but they ain’t white!
Go All Blacks!!!!
Check it out….

You can’t “fake it” in rugby. Flopping is frowned on. There is still a bit of honor left in the sport. I.e, anyone showboating or acting like a jackass gets knees to the kidneys and worse.
Cal rugby, as shown in photo, is about as white as it gets. Their players then go on to join and play for uber-white entities such as the Olympic Club in San Francisco, NYAC or Old Mission Bay Athletic Club.
I am reveling in my “whiteness” and this post. (Seventeen seasons before retirement–3 fractures and 8 ER visits in those seasons.)
How many professional players die playing rugby? Because, you know, that’s the reason American football players wear so many pads.
The St. Rita Rugby team played two games last night. The A-side defeated Montini 27-10. Senior captain Dennis Wilson was the man of the match for the first game.
The B-side defeated Mt. Carmel 42-0. Matt Foley scored 3 tries (15 points) and was selected man of the match for the B-Side. Pat Egan also ran in two tries in the game.
For the season, the A-side is undefeated at 2-0 in league play the B-side is 1-1.
Hit ’em high! Hit ’em low! Go! Rita! Go!

White people LOVE TUCC!!!!!
this blog used to be funny…
what the hell happened?
man, what *is* disc golf, anyway? i live in the whitest town on earth and there are always notices about impending disc golf games… wtf?
White people are very fond of sports where they are unlikely to face competition from (ahem) urban youth. See, Lacrosse, Rugby, squash…
I am such a stereotype. I acquired a love for rugby and the All Blacks while abroad in New Zealand, and yes, I own a jersey.
I went to a nearly all-white private school and the rugby team was the most popular. I never played, I just like the cute striped shirts.
Ooh, I need to start playing rugby now.
don’t forget about the scandinavian’s and their handball. that is one serious sport. sheeeeit.
Aussie Rules! Anyway, I guess I’m more of a traditional. In terms of sports, I love baseball the best.
Rugby 7’s in Hong Kong .. sleeping outside in the queue to get tickets … Pim’s …. and sitting near the Big Fat Bastard.
It was a good time … and you’re right .. mostly white people.
i actually think the blog is still over the top hillarious.
what has happened, white guy, if you are really interested in knowing, is not a loss in humour, but your brain is beginning to decipher the socialissues contained within this blog, and those issues are not at all funny. that’s the brilliance of good comedy. there’s a dark unhappy unfunny side to true comedy. existence is a tradgedy, comedy is but a band-aid.
that being said, you are confronted with how to go forth, which is also not funny. can you ignore the good c.l., and go about your business, or do you act upon your awareness. not a funny dilemma at all. imagine the first posts of the blog being the last, and the last being the first. there is no difference in comedic value…but your exposure to the truth is wearing you down, and it’s, well, not funny. you’re ready to go back into your automaton like state. lander has done his job very well….as james brown used to say, “don’t let nobody take care of yo business better than you do…”
c.l. opened a door and shut it RIGHT behind him.
I prefer Futbol or American Soccer

white people play basketball too…and black folks play tennis and golf.
generalizations man, c’mon get with tha program!
the bunk played lacrosse. the bunk is black.
“Fauxphistication” is not just for white people. My ex-husband’s a Dubliner and about as Irish as they come. His sports of choice were Gaelic football (what Australian Rules is based on) and Hurling, which is a lot like lacrosse but played with a stick that looks like a stubby hockey stick. I think I win at fauxphistication, but then Asian chicks usually do.
Wow, you’re really reaching now.
Is that because your blog has gained some “prominence” and now you have to realllllllly dig into the bottom of the white barrel?
Some of my best friends are white and they wouldn’t know a rugby ball from a (insert something funnier than rugby ball here).
I used to play rugby and this one’s hilarious 🙂
And yes…football players are wimps. Hell, they don’t even wear short shorts when they play their games in winter. Bunch of poofs 🙂
By Ireland, can we assume you mean Northern Ireland? Gaelic football is more popular in the Republic of Ireland as is soccer (football). I spent enough years watching both with my Dublin-born ex, so I’m not pulling this information out of my ass.
Some white people also have an affinity for misplaced apostrophes. If I fit in that category I might have written “apostrophe’s.”
They especially enjoy using it with the word “its.” Like in the sentence above, it is written: “Rugby’s greatest appeal lies in it’s uniforms.”
A grammar-loving white person would say that it should be written “its.” The only time “its” gets an apostrophe is when it is a contraction. If you can replace it[‘]s in your sentence with it is or it has, then your word is it’s; otherwise, your word is its.
-A grammar-loving white person (not to be confused with an apostrophe-loving white person)
For more on that see: http://spogg.org/
I played rugby in college, then graduated to aussie rules when I finished school. Does that make me a super advanced white person?
American football players wear pads because they used to die all the time, huh? And you thing this *hasn’t* happened in rugby? Dude. Pull head out of arse.
And yes, a hellofa lot of rugby players wear padding these days. Not the excessive hyper-mesomorphic shoulder pads and helmets of US football, but padding nonetheless. And why the hell wouldn’t ya ..? Gridiron ain’t the only sport where large, monosyllabic 300lb+ grunts run full-tilt into small, 150lb halfbacks at a great rate of knots. It makes the same crowd-hushing, sickeningly watchable-again-and-again-in-the-replays crunch in any game. Although it’s been a while since I’ve seen a US footy game in which a spectator runs onto the field and hard-core tackles the ref because he didn’t like a call … bloody South Africans. 🙂
Pretty much *all* the White People around these parts like rugby, and those that don’t are only that way because they are trying to be ‘individuals’ and stand out. Although in secret, they love it like the rest of us, and watch replays on their iPods when they think nobody’s watching them. But then again, by ‘these parts’ I am referring to New Zealand, and as everyone knows, that’s all we care about …
Keep up the good work, Mr. Blogger. Your stuff’s still funny, and damn entertaining. Well done that man, I’d give you a cookie but I’m sure you have them disabled in your browser …
🙂
I think this post could be rightfully applied to all manner of obscure sports. As has been illustrated by other comments, lacrosse, ultimate frisbee and hurling are high on the list of “sports white people like” simply for the sake of obscurity and social elitism. This truly is stuff white people like.
or ultimate? is that for the wrong kind of white people?
Rugby – played by hooligans for gentlemen
Football/Soccer – played by gentlemen for hooligans
Just wanted to point out to someone up there who suggested that hockey was a sport for poor white people that hockey costs a ridiculous amount of money to play.
White people love rugby. Especially girl’s rugby.
They also enjoy talking about their trips to South Africa, where they saved street children and still managed to see the Springboks.
White people also love aviators.
A provocative comment which tries to understand how satire/comedy works on the human mind. BTW Who said, “Dying is easy, comedy is hard?”
I do not believe that women should be educate. Their brains are smaller. (Borat)
wow, after 94 posts, one that doesn’t apply to me! i guess my mom was right, i must have some native american blood in me.
“Rugby’s greatest appeal lies in it’s uniforms.”
#96: Correcting improperly placed apostrophes
Any White asshat can play wing or flanker, but as the positions of rugby are ranked by Whiteness:
-Hooker: extremely White. For some reason otherwise unathletic ball-magnets do well in this position.
-Scrum Half: analogous to the American “Quarter” “Back”, it’s usually a White guy who can pass well.
-Prop: The archetype rugby player.
-Fullback: you normally stick a converted soccer player with a big boot here, often of British heritage.
-Fly Half (Whiter: Standoff): Skill player who needs to be able to drop kick.
White people love their hierarchies so if you should go out for your local club you can usually expect to play a year or so at wing or flanker, unless your skills are top notch.
Come on I have to call you out on this one. Most white people I no have no clue what rubgy is. And They don’t have a team called the All Whites , but there is a All Blacks lol.
FINALLY!!!!
A White person thread. Yeah!!
I think clander is finally understanding that “gays, Sarah Silverman, San Francisco, kosher NY Times articles, etc.” is mostly banal jewish stuff. If he would finally ditch that T-shirt and become White again, there’s hope.
What’s the point of continuing to post that? Rev. Wright is building a 10,000 sf mansion in an all-white Chicago suburb (Tinley Park, IL), and his house will be in a gated gold course community. What suckers his flock are.
I like Rugby and I am black … hmmm…
White people don’t have to be defined by your stupid narrow judaicized viewpoint.
Rugby is about the only all-White sport there is, after swimming!
Go stuff your face with a bagel and shut up! LOL!!!!
Why would you “despise” it?
EXCELLENT ANALYSIS! spoken like a true Proper White Person.
Wrong again. Ice time costs money. In fact, in the USA it’s only the rich high schools that can afford to field teams (outside of MN and ND etc.)
White guy, you aren’t White if you dislike hockey.
Aren’t there any intelligent people here?
Go to an NHL game, and then go to an NBA game. Contrast the music they blast, contrast the culture, contrast the entertainment during the breaks.
NBA = black and jew
NHL = White
NHL games are almost exclusively attended by Whites, they are FAR BETTER events to take White kids to than NBA games are. Plus hockey is the better pure spectator sport anyway.
I am white and have agreed with almost all the postings regarding stuff white people like but I think this one misses the mark.
Huh. Rugby, when it occurs in the U.S. is in my experience, pretty much the exclusive domain of lesbians.
Another thing white people like: Making people feel bad about themselves for no apparent reason. Especially when it’s anonymous.
And rubgy is less and less a “white-only” sport.
The whole entire Western world is less and less White. Wake up and do something about it. Either have White kids or support less immigration. How did first world Japan avoid the West’s suicidal liberalism?
A: They have no Jews.
That that one to the bank. It’s the truth.
Right. Some of the backs never learn all the line-out rules.
This has got to be from a white male’s perspective. White women couldn’t give a crap about rugby, even the guys that play it.
Let me guess. Two hipsters with 11-inch biceps and bad posture. Bring back the 80’s already, I think that was the last time guys were men.
Listen to the jew whine. Yeah bring back the non-white jewish threads about “Sarah Silverman”. Is that what you like? You aren’t White, it’s totally obvious.
probably microbrew
Heh. Anon clearly hasn’t seen the cutthroat playing of rugby by the women I know.
You post slowed down the site. Please stop.
You also have an environmental footprint too, did you ever think of that?
What are you talking about, this guy is just getting started!
Anon, fuck that, I played on an all-girls rugby team, it was huge in my city, and it was damn fun/bloody.
But I have to say, as a rugby player, nobody but rugby players and Limeys watch Rugby.
That’s because people who play rugby don’t eat vegetarian wraps, Sally.
Are you kidding me? “(NHL Games) are FAR BETTER events to take White kids to than NBA games are.” Really, don’t get me wrong here, Hockey is a fine game, but for taking children to attend, it is extremly violent, the players always brake into a fight, or someone always loses their teeths. Sure, fight their have been some brawls in NBA games but not as often as in hockey. So think about that?
This one misses the mark a little because of the demographic you’re usually trying to skewer: WASPy white people. WASPs hate rugby. It’s too civilian. It’s all about lacrosse (why else would that be Johns Hopkins’ single Division I sport?), as some people have mentioned. Water Polo if you’re from California.
Ironically, as a white person, I play all three. Guess I’m officially stereotyped.
Not sure why so many commenters talking about ‘Rugby Fans’ this is about the Sport of Rugby similar to ‘Idea of Soccer’ it not about ‘the civil religon’ of sports like in US big 4 or futbol/rugby hoooligan skinhed/fans in europea/latin amer. its more about an alternative to ‘run,jog,gym’ routines mere self-xpression in phys. culture
Another important aspect of liking rugby is that the sport is “earthy”. Polo is just as obscure as rugby (in the U.S.), but polo is too obviously gentrified. Rugby involves getting dirty and hurt, so it allows the white person to “keep it real” even while being stuck up.
Gosh!!! Where is you sense of humor is the question? Not every single entry has to apply to you, he is giving a general idea, not all white people are the same.
P.S. I am african american.
That has to do with the uniforms, not the players, you clown’s ass.
Screw all the pussies and candy-asses who use little pick-up games in the park as a justification to purchase and wear jersies they haven’t earned. Around the head. Who said head?
ban this douche.
SO TRUE! I played women’s rugby for any Ivy League team, and I was the ONLY visible minority playing across all mens and womens teams in the Ivy League.
Plus, it drove me nuts that all the Abercrombie types were wearing faux rugby jerseys.
The shirts have changed and are more like other sports now

Maybe you should work on your reading comprehsnsion. Perfect Speciman said Hockey is white because its “core audience” is white. My reply that hockey is for “poor whites” describes the “core audience.”
Because you’re not very smart, you try to argue that hockey is for rich whites because it’s an expensive sport to PLAY.
I’m sorry you didn’t get into any good schools 😦
don’t forget that rugby is immensely popular throughout melanesia and polynesia.
i used to go out with a Samoan bloke who played on a gay Rugby team.
Surely I get points for that!
Um….of course “White people” can be an expansive category. This site, however, describes the liberal, urban, upper-middle class, hipster subcategory of white people. The whites this site pokes fun at do not play rugby because they don’t want to break their noses.
Usually, those seething with irrational hatred have small penises.
You’re so obviously the “wrong type of white person.”
people, please-you want a white sport? hurling…now that’s a white sport. played in ireland, a country whose whiteness is outstripped only by south african dwelling dutch people, and their national sport is persecuting native south africans. wheeeeeeee
i’m about as white as can be, but i have never thought about, talked about, or knew a single white person who was interested in rugby. is it an east coast white thing?
Um… as a rugby player (and a white person) myself… rugby is the only sport I’ve ever played (of soccer, rugby, baseball, swimming, and basketball) where the white people are the minority on the field.
Lacrosse would definitely have been the right choice here.
Why the Jew conspiracy theories? Brings to mind “Methinks thou dost protest too much.”
I clean up for the maid, and so do the other members of my liberal-minded diversified family. How white!
Um, as someone who went to one of the MANY rugby schools in Dublin, yes, rugby is big enough here. We can hold our own in the six nations.
Course, over here it doesn’t have the right connotations for this blog. Rugby is often associated with drinking and loutish behavior as in the sad cases of a young man kicked to death by rugby players outside a night club a few years back.
Well, they kinda jumped the cliched shark in the ’80s, what with long, teased hair, tight-ass pants, neon colors and bright pink lipstick. Not to mention the mullet. Guys may have been men, but they were also dangerously close to being women.
You know it’s time to dump your man when he asks to borrow your lipstick and hairspray.

You are so white you need SPF 100.
Who cares about rugby? This one was dumb
You’re right about that. I just got back from playing disc golf while walking my two dogs wishing the whole time I could go play co-ed ultimate.
I don’t think that rugby is universally loved amongst white people but a person who starts a casual conversation about “this rugby team i play on” probably gets some extra white status points in the group, as opposed to something lame like kickball or ultimate frisbee. Plus people are totally clueless about rugby and probably think you’re out there running head first into each other without helmets, and kicking each other in the stomach.
I pooped my pants
I know it, too, which is why I let the “you don’t get it” people eat each other alive.
Awesome blog Christian! Now quit talking about rugby and come watch it this weekend as the best rugby team in the nation, Santa Monica, hosts the Dallas Harlequins… 3pm in West L.A. THIS SATURDAY 4/12 visit http://www.santamonicarugby.com for details!!!! You’ll have something to talk about with your white friends I promise.
The NZ equivalent of this blog would probably have ‘not liking rugby’ – sooo many trendy middle class white NZers (especially in their 20s for some reason) ostentatiously go on about how they hate rugby, and how it makes them happy when the All Blacks lose. Also all the white middle class mothers who make their sons play soccer because they’re afraid of the 6 foot tall Polynesians that other schools field in their junior rugby teams.
Does the kind of Stuff White People Like include things like
Equality, Justice, and Truth?

françois-marie arouet, maybe? i’m bad with quotes.
Ivy League white people probably like rugby more than Europeans.
No way! Ultimate is totally a right kind of white people activity.
Don’t forget rugby league v rugby union for extra obscurity points.
satire also works best with those familiar enough with the status quo, and not simply with those who “thought something was cute and now becoming trite.”
the topic’s possible hackneyed nature could be debated. the relevance cannot. nor the satire…
we’re not talking chaucer here. and i don’t think lander is either…this is kid’s stuff, which as we all know is precisely what this blog NEEDED to be in order to get folks to read it. who was it that said “you must be careful not to endeavor to do something too clever or folks won’t get it?”
lander was gambling with the delivery of the blog to begin with…our mtv and paris hilton minds.
I have never known anyone to play, watch or talk about rugby. I do know a couple lacrosse players though.
I’m white and I hate rugby.
I really do not want to know what goes on in the middle of that scrum.

He has been in the middle of a scrum and had a bad experience.
As well as euroaneisa and analanesia.
While technically I am not white, I am Halfrican-American, I did grow up in Northern California, after being adopted by white people.
99% of this list is stuff white people from NorCal like. Throughout our country are white people that can identify with some, but not nearly as much as the NorCal natives.
I find it amusing that people are so quick to criticize and judge, and I find it more amusing to read comments of people who seem genuinely offended by what they read.
I learned to laugh at myself early on, and considering how popular The Daily Show and Colbert Report (people laughing at themselves), you would think that this would be the same.
I cannot wait to see what else “I” (NorCal Native legally (by adoption) white person) likes.
And yeah, I played Rugby in a league in San Francisco, because I played soccer and one of the women on my co-ed teams played and asked if I would come out.
The sport is nuts…but only because of the drinking, a pre-game and post-game event…generally WITH the opposing team, so whatever happened on the pitch would spill in to the bars during the post-game festivities.
Lacrosse is an east coast thing, and although it is growing in popularity (because soccer, rugby, ultimate, and disk golf is so trendy, and white people insist on being original), it is still not like rugby, and (the idea) of soccer (at least in NorCal).
Thanks for the hard-to-contain audible laughter!!!
White people in Australia generally hate Americans, especially the loud and obnoxious tourists.

Rugby is shite but admittedly it’s white. Therefore it is white shite.
Let’s take a closer look at the scientific, scholarly data, courtesy of the Occidental Institute and Proper White Person Kevin MacDonald:
“A large part of the attraction of NASCAR is a desire for traditional American culture. NASCAR events are permeated with sentimental patriotism, prayers, military fl yovers, and postrace fi reworks. As sociologist Jim Wright notes, “just
about everything … you encounter in a day at the track drips with traditional Americana.”43 However, “race is the skeleton in the NASCAR Family closet.
On the tracks and in the stands, stock-car racing remains a white-person’s sport.
…
Wright stresses the link of NASCAR to traditional small town and rural American culture and its links to outdoor pursuits like hunting, fishing, camping, and guns.47 There is a large overlap between NASCAR fans and gun ownership.
…
Other values in evidence are courage in the face of danger—another throwback to traditional American culture, deriving ultimately from the Scots-Irish culture
of the English borderlands: “As we enter the third decade of women’s liberation and the second decade of the post communist era, we’ve come to expect,
even demand more sensitivity and empathy in our men than bravado or grit, and the traditional manly virtues of courage, bravery, and ‘guts’ strike many as anachronistic at best, even dangerous and moronic.”49
The only recent scientific survey on NASCAR fans is the Southern Focus Poll of 1998, conducted by the Center for the Study of the South at the University of North Carolina.50 26.1 percent of white Southerners had been to a NASCAR
race, compared to 4.4 percent of blacks. In the national sample using the same questions, the percentages were 24.1 and 12.5 percent respectively. These
results undercount the total number of fans of non-NASCAR stock car racing and other forms of auto racing. 18.1 percent of respondents with a high school education had been to a NASCAR race, compared to 22.5 percent of high school
graduates, 27 percent with some college, and 18 percent of college graduates. NASCAR also claims 75 million fans in America, 25 percent of the population.51 NASCAR racing is the fastest growing sport in America, second only to the NFL
in sports viewership.52 This is a very large implicit white community.”

I agree with the posts that this should be Lacrosse (or Squash even) much more than Rugby…
I think this should be changed to Rugby shirts/Polo shirts.
The sport is too European to be included here. Just my opinion. But we do love ’em some rugby jerseys! I know i have one. Never seen a rugby game (outside of it playing on the TVs at a pub in Europe) though.
Maybe the difference between Rugby Union and Rugby League needs to be made? The wrong kind of white person plays Rugby League, after all.
The right kind of white person will tell you why Union is better than league…
…
“While NASCAR is a white sport, the NBA is widely perceived to be a black sport. Whites, especially nonurban whites, are a decreasing audience for the NBA. Since the Michael Jordan era, television ratings for the NBA have been
on the decline. In 2005, ratings were down 7 percent on ESPN and TNT, 4 percent on ESPN, and more than 30 percent for the NBA finals.56
The audience for NASCAR and the NBA are nonoverlapping, with the NBA appealing to “a young, multicultural, urban market audience”57—the polar opposite of the married, white, Republicans who have adopted implicit white identities.
NASCAR has enjoyed an increasingly dominant television audience position during the portion of the year formerly controlled by the NBA.58
The NBA culture is seen as African-American, and the response of the NBA has been to attempt to make the NBA look more like white America in order to restore its fan base. Sports writer Gary Peterson notes that “for decades
there has been a racial divide between NBA players (mostly black) and the paying customers (largely white). That divide has become a flashpoint over
the past 15 years…Never before have the players seemed so unlike the fans.
This divide is the top concern at the league office—even ahead of declining free throw shooting and baggy shorts. For proof you need look no further than the league-wide dress code NBA commissioner David Stern imposed last
season. It was an extraordinary step—he might as well have told the players, ‘Quit dressing like typical young, urban African-Americans. You’re scaring the fans.’”59 Besides banning ostentatious gold chains and mandating business casual attire, the NBA has also handed out draconian penalties for fighting among players, because fi ghting fits into the image of urban, African-American
culture.60 Another sportswriter, MSNBC’s Michael Ventre, opined that “the terms ‘NBA’ and ‘thuggery’ have become inextricably linked in the minds of basketball fans the world over.”61
The point is not that the NBA is more violent than, say, professional hockey; it’s just that the NBA is conscious of racial stereotyping processes among whites. Part of NASCAR’s attraction for whites is that it is an implicit white
community. By regulating dress and conduct, the NBA seems to be trying to make the NBA an implicit white community despite the racial composition
of its players.”

Rugby is white shite.
Megan, megan, megan. Rugby is the whitest sport ever. It represents the English (white) character much more closely that football (soccer). In fact these days football/soccer is talking about using rugby etiquette to improve football/soccer behaviour. So hats off to white rugby. But that still does not change the fact that rugby is shite. White shite.
Nice!
http://stuffcollegepeoplelike.wordpress.com
American rugby players = mostly pussies who couldn’t make the football team in high school. So they get to college where nobody knows them, join the rugby club so they can go around telling dumb girls at parties that they play rugby and its “just like football, but without the pads”. In a few unfortunate cases, they say this within earshot of an actual football player, who proceeds to beat the sh*t out of them.
Same goes for a lot of lacrosse players too
I’m Kenyan and we are avid fans too. It’s more upperclass though than say football. I will say that a lot of Pacific Islanders play excellent rugby and they are extremely non-white….
Linus, any sport that requires the use of hands…is shite. The “sport” can’t even get its name right. “Football”? Please. You guys should name the sport after what you do most…walk around, take off your helmets, put on your helmets, write on white boards, hudddle, huddle some more. Your sport is not football, nor is it beautiful. Nor is it white. It is American in the basest sense. Rugby is much more white than American football. And yet still in comparison to proper football, or soccer, for you Americans, it is…shite.
I actually disagree with this one. White people like rugby for the same reason people of all races like rugby: it is a Manly sport.
http://mantivities.wordpress.com/
This actually has history behind it. Straight out of Aesthetics 202, Rise of the Industrial Age, rugby was the first upper class sport followed by polo and cricket because they were more complicated than mere football (re: soccer) and unlike foot races or accuracy contests (archery, ninepins) had specific rules that are not immediately understood just by watching the game. In the same way that polo was exclusionary because it required ownership of a horse that was not one’s work animal, rugby required a certain amount of schooling just to learn the rules, which almost always ensured that those who could play it were also able to read & write. As such rugby was more of a game that has academic associations compared to soccer, where all you need is a ball and eight posts to mark out the field (two for each goal and one each for the four corners). Rugby’s goal rules were almost deliberately designed so that the unwashed masses wouldn’t be able to just throw a goal post together with ease, the implication being that one would need to be able to afford to hire trade specialists to construct one. And also that you could afford to have a specialized play area reserved only for playing on rather than growing crops or grazing animals which would be maintained for optimum play value, preferably by fencing it in to keep it from being abused between matches, which led to our modern concept of a fenced in athletics field. And as long as you’re at it you might as well have a more complex uniform for players to wear involving long sleeved shirts (appropriately collared) so that one could then accompany one’s teammates to a public house to carouse in front of other drinkers clad in ordinary attire and remind them that they are not a part of this team or organization — Soccer was usually played in short sleeves that would necessitate a change of clothes before celebrating, where the dirty unwashed rugby player was actually flaunting their class status by not bathing or even simply changing before their public celebrations. The rugby player was honored for his soiled condition since it was an organizational hierarchy which supported the sport, a tradition that is still observed today primarily by drunken college students; rugby players are usually as well known for their alcohol fueled exploits as they are for whatever athletic prowess is needed to actually play the game.
I think CLander blew it. The post should have been sports that black people don’t play. Rugby, Soccer, LaCrosse (that game with the stick – Omar Little, The Wire).
“no other jersey on earth that can move so seamlessly from the playing field to the farmers market” = genius
Rugby’s OK, white enough I suppose, but hardly the be all and end all of whiteness.
Yachting — or more strictly, sailboat racing (dinghy and small one-design keelboat racing for young whites and larger keelboat racing for middle-aged whites) — is probably the whitest sport out there: the equipment ranges $10k or so for kids boats up to millions, it takes years to become really proficient, and most of it is done out of exclusive, WASP clubs on the the coasts and the great lakes.
Most of the top yacht clubs no longer automatically exclude Jews or Asians (especially not those who grew up sailing), but even white new money and non-whites generally have a hard time getting into the more prestigious yacht clubs and fitting in even if they somehow get in.
I think lacrosse is more popular in the north east since the Iroqoius Nation played.
Okay, so Clander is describing a certain type of white person. It’s funny, I’ll agree with that
I just wish the neo- nazi, pinhead, uninformed, hateful, and uneducated freaks could stop spewing their garbage all over the net.
You know who you are. Get a life you wanna-be hitler youth.
Have a nice day. 😉
This is the first big FAIL of this blog. Besides the fact that this is far from true, we’ve already had the “idea of soccer.” The idea of soccer was TRUE, and it was quite clever. This rugby post simply undercuts the soccer post.
Bummer, seems like this blog hasn’t jumped the shark.
Correct.
just tell, what does god hate?
“Like soccer, they are given the chance to purchase a scarf of their adopted team, but more importantly they can acquire a Rugby jersey.”
Huh, and I didn’t think sports could purchase scarfs.
yeah… i generally like this blog… but… you get a thumbs down today.
first of all… im korean, and i play rugby. so there.
rugby is actually quite far-reaching (there are ruggers from all over the globe, including asia and africa) and ridiculously international.
now… curling… or yachting… id say those are *much* white-er sports 😛
It kind of bothers me that the people playing this game in the picture are wearing polo shirts and not rugby shirts.
Beer came into the equation for me.
And I gotta tell you, 96% of my teammates were wrong-typers. The other guy was black.
Uh-oh! The author of this blog is in big trouble; WordPress doesn’t allow Google ads on the site. tsk tsk. So sad that such a great blog must come to such an untimely end.
That’s my brother in the picture…
White people don’t like the Springboks…think about it…they back the all Blacks who perform the haka.
maori dance trumps apartheid
That is so not true! A lot of female rugby players are straight. Hell, the majority of them are, and I’ve played the game at all levels and with several different teams. Then again, I’m from Canada; no idea what it’s like elsewhere. As for the narrow business, if that’s a crack at the “big girls”, we come in all sizes. Personally, I’m 5’7 and around 130lbs AND I have on several occasions made girls cry when I take them down.
On another note, I also have two graduate degrees…does that make me white? (I’m not, BTW)
Team USA looks fairly white to me:
http://web.usarugby.org/viadesto/natteams/mnt/albums/WCQ-Uruguay-2006/index.html
What sheer ignorance. The greatest rugby ball hogs I know are white. I’m black, I’ve played scrum half and fly half and my team certainly didn’t win games because I don’t like to pass…
This one looks like a stretch. Unless you mean White people that live in England.

White people do like their rugby. Check your grammar, though–it’s a possessive “its”, not a contraction “it’s”. Don’t white people like being grammar nerds too?
To the untrained eye Rugby may seem a poor candidate for SWPL. Before you rap Clander across the knuckles for posting about a niche sport that only a tiny subset of white Americans participate in, let me assure you that someone who is somewhat older than you and way superior can confirm that Clander is (bleh-heh) spot on.
In 1963 my prep school football coach introduced me and other members of the varsity to Rugby by organizing a pick-up game. We played in T-shirts, shorts and cleats-scrumming, running, tackling and passing up and down the football field for about an hour. Afterwards I felt exhilarated not fully realizing that “Rugby” had put me in touch with my Anglo-athletic roots.
I never played again but I learned later that my football coach took a year sabbatical in Australia to play and study the sport. Kind of like a missionary in reverse he returned to the U.S. to institute the sport of Rugby at my ever-so-exclusive white boys prep school. The cultural appeal of Rugby as the consummate white sport may not be apparent from a handful of anecdotes and a minuscule player/fan base on this side of the pond. But wherever Rugby is played in America there is some corner of a foreign field that is forever England.

He could make up a Jewish conspiracy theory out of a bag of rocks and he thinks it’s some kind of badge of honour (which, I suspect, is why his posts aren’t deleted…like NASCAR wankers, he’s kept here so we can laugh at him, then ingore…)

I play rugby. And I’ve often used this statement: it is strongly advised that you say: “you know, American Football players might be bigger, but rugby players are so much tougher.” Their response will be to tell you about how Football players are weak because they wear pads.
however I don’t like rugby for the shirts. I like it because I get to make other girls bleed and not get in trouble for it.
Curling is much whiter than rugby. In fact, you have to be white to even know that curling is an olympic sport.
Rugby is a tough guys sport played by gentleman. Soccer is a gentlemans sport played by tough guys.
It is a massive excuse for drinking – and the real Aussies will tell you that in a heartbeat. I knew a couple of kids that played it where I went to college (two brothers from Austrailia) They never understood the American wannabees insane competitiveness… They played to win, but not as much as they played to drink.
GAWD I hate it when my own people exhibit their own prejudice, racism, ignorance, fear of stepping out of their comfort zone, and try to cover it up with uninformed bravado. I am an almost 65 year old African American woman and I am appalled by the extenty to which some folks will go without doing their homework.

Rugby has never been defined by race except by people who are not familiar with the sport .
Lacrosse is a Native American sport. By the way, Jim Brown of the Cleveland Browns, played lacrosse and credits it with influencing his awesome play on the football field. (If you don’t know who he is, do your homework).
My daughter, the blood child of two black parents, played lacrosse in high school and college.
Both rugby and lacrosse are hardas*ed sports and not for the faint of heart. And it is true, as they say, “it takes balls to play rugby.”
Do your homework kids; know what you’re talking about before you talk. Knowledge and truth impact your credibility, whether you are black or white.
I live in Denver near a park where a rugby league plays on many Sundays. We can always tell they have played because of all the bloody bandages they leave on the field.
Me again. While I’m on the topic and before you go out on another limb, you will want to do some research on black hockey players like Willie O’Ree et al. And while you’re at it, check out the all black hockey teams back around the turn of the 20th century.
We of the African diaspora are everywhere and we are only limited by our own fears of the unknown.
The aforereferenced South African rugby team may be nearly all white (after all, it is South Africa) but it is still the pride of Nelson Mandela.
The only people I’ve know who are into rugby were: liberal, urban, upper-middle class hipsters. This entry fits perfectly!
And…my old roommate who is a total “white person” dated a black rugby player. Two points!
They say in England (didn’t the sport originate here?) that Football is a gentle game played by Thugs and Rugby is a thug’s game played by Gentlemen.
What I love about watching Rugby is the sense of fair play and good sportsmanship – something lacking in many sports these days.

Australian Rules makes SWPL? My life is complete.
Does it count toward being a White Person if you actually live in Australia?
If “fauxphistication” is supposed to refer to a certain shallowness, then it’s redundant. That’s what “sophisticated” really means– “like a sophist”.
Australian Rules Football looks like a sport you make up while waiting for the bus to school in Jr. High. It makes about as much sense as 5 day long cricket games. How’s that for an obscure sports refrence?
Field Hockey? Squash? How could you forget squash?

Yes, but the new generation of white kids are growing up to love the sport, thus letting it emerge gradually intot he hipster scene. The great thing about rugby is it supplies great outfits and a way to get dirty, sweaty, and have some fun, so you can take either/or. We played a less tough version of rugby in our high school gym, where noses weren’t broken, but we still had fun trying to score from the other end of the field.
In the nineteenth century, the English regarded the Irish as a separate race. If you are a humane person, you don’t want to hear details.
Rugby is not obscure; it is at the very center of North American existence:

As botha white person and someone who plays club AND school rugby, I officially hate you. For one thing, Aussie Rules Rugby doesn’t count as a sport. You need rules to be a sport. And, rugby players are way tougher then football players. If you need oxygen after running 50 yards like some people on a football team, you probably shouldn’t even consider maybe going and trying out for a rugby team. Plus, it helps if you can benchpress a hobby-horse.
And our jerseys are stylish, so bugger you with an iron pole.
“Don’t litter. Remember to pick up all teeth from the field.”
Congratulations. You have a White husband!!
You will have true White children.
Me encanta jugar rugby!!!! Rugby feminino re- guay!!!
I love rugby!!! I play on a womens rugby team in the states, and i’ve played abroad. rugby is the best sport hands down, and the Pumas are the best team on earth!!! Aguante rugby!!! Aguante Argentina y los Pumas!!!
irrational? or rational?
There is plenty of diversity within the European peoples. We don’t need more.
I totally disagree with you.
It was brought to them by the Europeans. Whites also brought distillation to the New World, so tequila is totally White.
Gimme a White female rugby player over a smashed-in face asian any day!! Why breed with asians and have a non-White son?????
Hockey is White, therefore it cannot be “poor”. You are a fool.
Ice time costs. Period.
Are you White? Are you a father?
I highly doubt it, otherwise you would get it.
ha ha…we have a neanderthal “censor” within our midst!!
Sorry buddy, you probably love the Patriot Act!! I love these intolerant liberal fags.
Yeh, I agree. Rugby is pure Anglophile territory. God is an Englishman with a plummy accent or even a working class bloke that says stuff after the match like: “a good pounding, that… can I buy you a pint, mate?” God is great. God is white.
If you are White you most definitely identify with MacDonald. That goes without saying. If you don’t then you are most likely a “white” that is lost in life, and likely won’t reproduce.
Say no to a black Ireland. Someone in Ireland tell me why Sinn Fein says that “British out, Nigerians in” is a good thing?
Nice try, you loser straw men and ad hominem losers!!! LOL!!!!
Tokyo is first class, and it’s 99% Japanese. The only White city left on the entire planet might be Moscow, and that won’t last.
I have no idea how Whites became such fools. Obviously, it relates to White punks that don’t have children, otherwise they wouldn’t get so hostile.
Japanese would never let the Jew-1960’s, counter-culture bullshit overthrow their thousands-year-old culture. They still don’t. Good for them, they aren’t fools.
Seriously. Are you stalking me? Im going to see some Rugby tomorrow (wearing my jersey needless to say), might stop by a whole foods market on the way, pick up a fair trade coffee to take to the ground. 😉
Just a warning though, remember the difference between Rugby League and Rugby Union. Union is “a thugs sport played by gentlemen” while League is “a gentlemans sport played by thugs”.
On White Whale records & tapes
Yeah, I’m also white and have never seen nor heard of a team ANYWHERE in my state, let alone region.
Are you saying that white trash doesn’t exist? I could take you to a couple trailer parks that would prove otherwise.
You guys were hacking each other with machetes just 1-2 months ago.
Nice culture you have there. F’ Kenya, and all your illegitimate kids.
hockey is not “white trash”, what the hell is wrong with you? It’s an awesome, organized sport.
Very true. I love rugby, and when I studied in Australia I purchased a Parramatta Eels jersey and a Wallabies jersey.
Do I get bonus white points for knowing the difference between rugby league and rugby union?
And yes, I do have a favorite Aussie Rules club, but did not feel like spending $100 on a tank top. Got an Essendon polo (and scarf) though.
Hmmmmm……you made me think on that one.
But still those guys were Heterosexuals who got tons of pussy . That ere also included homos galore (like Pet Shop), so I still prefer heteros for obvious White reasons.
Lastly, despite the spandex, those guys could play and instrument, and those shredders were true virtuosos. Compare that to the negro-chimp-out stuff we have today. These guys are illiterate in addition to being musically inept.
Never played it.

one more article that applies to me, damnit! i really must be white
Fuck it. Some dumb ass anti-White racist politician in Australia thinks the country needs 50 million people to get on.
Yeah, they will all be non-Whites and Australia too, just like the USA, will be another Brazil-cess pool.
Wake up Whites!!! Don’t you care what the next few generations has to inherit?
What’s that term? WOGS?
Stand up already, fool Whites. Care about civilized society.
If more Whites had children earlier, they would get this basic fact. ARRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Dumb Whites!
Rugby remains an “elite” white sport because blacks have either not discovered it or taken an interest in it. When blacks participate competitively in a sport in sufficient numbers, most whites are sidelined to second-team status because they can’t perform on the same level. For reasons which are not clear, blacks are the highest achievers (with some exceptions) in sports requiring basic speed, quickness and strength.
here we go again.
“Whitey” is not white.
Why did Cortez conquer the entire Aztec nation with 500 White men?
Why did every Filipino take a White Spanish name?
Save us these myths.
tel aviv is less diverse than any White western city. Do you think the jews regret that?
How foolish White have become. They are a fraction of the people their grandparents were.
Asian girls have smashed in faces. Why an White male would choose to have a non-white, asian, slanted-eyed son is beyond rational.
Shut up Yid. You are not White.
same here. after ultimate frisbee, rugby is the sport of choice at my extremely white, upper-middle class, hipster liberal arts college.
OMG SO DO I!! I always clean up for the maids!!!!! I feel like they’re judging me if I dirty the house. I dont want them to think im some sort of pig, so I wash the floors, clean the sinks, toilets, showers, and I dust! and my house looks pretty much the same when they leave! sure it smells better, but for 100 bucks everytime they come…I could buy a million Plug-ins lol. Damn that should totally be an entry….Maids. White people have maids, but we treat them like that teacher who always wants you to do your best in class, and is dissapointed when you dont get an A. Even though we know in the back of our minds that they could care less and the less work they have to do the better! lmao….wow im soo white…..and yes white people love rugby because we love playing in polo shirts, polo shirts are a white person stable.
Oh here we go!!!!
An ESPN-jewified American!!!! Look Europeans at a prime specimen!!
Why do the US negro teams lose in international competitions? to mostly White Europeans?
I feel sorry for such a weak White as you.
The US negro basketball teams lose to small European White countries.
Nothing obscure about rugby. Ask millions of New Zealanders, Australians, South Africans and Brits. Also the best thing about the game is not the uniforms. It’s the fact that it’s pure sport played by extremely fit people who don’t get to rest on the bench for large portions of the game.
Yes, it’s mostly something white people like, but after SA won the Rugby World Cup in 1994 and again last year, I can assure you that many black people like it too.
I think you’re scraping the bottom of the barrel here.
All the HS football teams that win state championships are white.
For those that are interested in this subject, and why the dynamic changes at Div I, please review:

YES!
Ha!!!!!!
You are hilarious!!!
I’m White, and you are not. Why are you even here?????
Ha!!!
SWPL – fresh out of fresh ideas – i suppose everyone has seen the SWPL parodies already, which, appropriately, have stolen SWPL’s thunder. I hope clander took a big advance on the book deal because i really don’t think sales are gonna meet initial expectations. Today’s Bryant Park Project (the kindy quirky hipster 30+ something talk-show on NPR) featured stuffnobodylikes.com and whitestuffpeoplelike.com which definitely deserved a few laughs. I know i’m probably a bit late on the jade(ed) bandwagon – not being an urban white US upper-middleclass hipster (i’m an asian-american grad student in hawaii), but really, i think clander ought to stop posting and save up some ideas for the book – the last several posts have seemed sort of desparate.
Lacrosse is White, as the Duke Lacrosse case proved.
I knew they were innocent from day 1, since White lacrosse kids at “Duke” wouldn’t be so stupid as to endanger their future by having sex with a STD negro.
I am seriously surprised at how far it even went.
Why did nobody ask: “what are the chances that White lacrosse kids would insert their penises in a negro?”
It was obvious to any White person from the start it was false.
“I’m not Rappaport” isn’t white – he’s a scammer who thinks that by playing the anti-semitic, supremacist card he’ll get street cred.
It was borne out that he ISN’T white quite a few blogs ago.
He wrongly equates being non-white as a stigma, and he hasn’t been able to come to terms with it after he was outed.
Sisyphean lump of fuck on April 10, 2008 at 6:17 pm summed it up:
“Why? Because he’s a sad lonely POS that’s why. He’s the morbidly obese, basement or trailer-dwelling, unemployable 60yr. old momma’s boy that has nada going on in his life, so he comes to sites like this because the internet is *all there is* for him.
He could make up a Jewish conspiracy theory out of a bag of rocks and he thinks it’s some kind of badge of honour (which, I suspect, is why his posts aren’t deleted…like NASCAR wankers, he’s kept here so we can laugh at him, then ingore…)
100% loser material.”

You are insane.
I am White. Why does that bother you?
Gooks, get back to your filthy 3rd world country. This is a white aryan man’s dominion! ??DEUTSCHLAND UND HITLER..SIEG HEIL ??! (Germany and Hitler, Victory Hail!)
rugger-hugger!!!
Your comment is pathetic. For every White guy who plays rugby there is either a girlfriend, or a wife, a sister, or sister-in-law, etc., etc.
Your comment is a joke.
It’s really ignorant.
I enjoyed your story, but I have to argue a little, the school I went to which created many All Blacks had very few white people in their First 15. Most of them like me were too short.
By the way, I have a question, because I am wthinking that perhaps you like that game of round ball. Why do the players always hug each other, is it to make their team better because they always seem to fall on the ground and cry like babies whenever a player on the opposing team touches them.
Certainly in my country white people much prefer the game with the round ball, at least the ones with Anglo Saxon accents. I have also noticed that they don’t know many songs, but they really do like singing Negro Spirituals like Swing Low Sweet Chariot. That’s something I have never understood why people playing a white man’s sport want to sing Afro American songs which I believe come from the church, or perhaps is it a form of prayer. If it is., please forgive me because I do not wish to offend anyone.
I’m from New Zealand where rugby is played by pakeha (white New Zealanders), Maori, Samoans and Fijians and definitely isn’t just a white person’s sport. It’s our national sport, and that goes for all of the cultures that make up our country.
But then I *live* in the UK where rugby is very much an upper-class white activity, and football (“soccer”) is the sport for the masses.
You affirm action types should just be happy you are not in Zimbabwe. Enough of your pathetic critiques of “Whites”.
I mean……listening to this stuff, this attitude, is totally comical.
Not white, eh? Just because my monkier is “oy gevalt”? Wow.
Yeah, that’s MONIKER.
OY GEVALT!
Irish are Celtic. There are no more White people in the world.
It is none of your business how Whites (angles, saxons, celts) handle their business.
I see what BS you are alluding to.
Sorry, anti-White racist a-hole: Irish are White, so are Scots…..but the Semites are NOT WHITE.
Ummmmm, no. Actually yours needs to be shut down. I just checked it out and it’s really really boring and completely uninspiring. I wouldn’t even bother with it anymore if I were you. Just go ahead and pull the plug on it right now before anyone else here sees how boring it is.
It was clearly established, in the early days of this blog, that you are in fact a non-white.
Your lack of stoicism plays out thru anger and unwarranted attacks on others.
People visit this blog for laughs, giggles, and a general good time – not for your virulence.
Start your own blog – a pulpit where you can vent your rage. You’ll certainly develop a following of like-minded haters, and there you’ll be able to warn faithful readers about Jewish conspiracies, racial encroachments, and all of the topics that are so close to your heart.
If you’re as smart as you claim you are, you would have gotten a clue by now.
No way.
Heres the math:
50% Ivies are non-white (non rugby) because of preferences and liberal quotas.
The remaining 50% “white” are really 1/2 jews.
Therefore, 25% of the Ivies are really honestly White.
Of that 25%, 1/2 are White Catholics, maybe less. therefore the “RUGBY” whites, the protestants that made this nation what it is, they are 12.5% of the institutions they created!
No wonder Whites today LAUGH at Ivy Leaguers. Affrim action and anti-White racism is easily noticed by Whites. We know who our own people are.
fag
LOL! Rugby! HILARIOUS! Loved this post 🙂
and whats with all the people taking it so literally? “This post can’t be right because I’m “insert culture here” and I like rugby. Lighten up! It’s satire people!
I’m not Rappaport wrote: “but the Semites are NOT WHITE.”
And neither are you, so stop hijacking.
Adam: nobody is more ridiculed or despised than the the Jewish-American tourist. Maybe the British tourist comes in second.
In Tuscany today, the jokes about American Jewish boors and their wives are legendary. They top “texans” as the most obnoxious people who travel!!
I would not be that hard on the on this one Mikey G . But I do agree that Rugby was way off. Being a black rugby player, I do no I was the first on in my teams history to play. But we full of us after more people just learned what it was .
Full of us lol.
And he for got the best part of rugby, the DRINKING .
Most of the top yacht clubs no longer automatically exclude Jews or Asians
Oh really?
back that up.
Not Rappaport:
Nothing you say is provocative, intelligent, or even close to funny. It is better to say nothing at all and be thought a fool than to speak and verify those thoughts.
sorry buddy, but pro-white people, “neo-nazi” as you laughably call them are: WHITE
Therefore, a non-White such as you has no business even being here, let alone whining!!
Just because an Irish-American, a Polish-American, etc. likes to be White……is happy his kids are “White” and not slanted-eyed….is happy his kids reject jew vulgarity like Family Man, Simpsons, and Sarah Silverpig, is happy they aren’t anti-White racists……….
Why do you hate Whites?
Yet another tick on my WASP checklist. If trend continues it is only proper that I change my surname to Walters-Bourhill. PS Go Bokke! (It’s a rugby thing)
I agree. Anyone who jews hate is a “neo-nazi”.
It’s a joke.
Whites are White. Others hate them so much. tamblu is just jealous he’s not White, and even if he marries a White, his kids will never be White.
Sorry, tamblu: It takes the sperm of a White male, and only a White male, to produce WHITE CHILDREN.
Get over it.
You ain’t White.
It takes the sperm of a White male, and only a White male, to produce WHITE CHILDREN.
The gays love rugby too. Even have their own leagues, but they will let straight guys play, lest they be accused of discrimination.
Asians were allies of the Reich.
Jews in Tel Aviv would never let their daughters produce slanty-eyed jews.
Are you clueless in life?
The gay bullshit is coming to an end.
people are getting wise: gays are prone to lonliness, depression and STDs
Their era is about over. People are sick of it…..literally.
Fags suck and they damn well know it.
F U wasps.
you people have lost your front-and-center role as the spokespeople for “Whites”
You cocksucker a-holes!!! You morons interbreeded with the jews in the UK for sure. Today, WASPs have forgone their patrimony, as evidenced b the Anglicans going HOMOSEXUAL.
To me, the “Whites” that are worthy are probably the Russians, Italians, Eastern Europeans, and the US Mormons.
They are the only people who appear to get it, and love Whites.
what’s rubgy?
Uhm. Actually. Guns, I think it was. Yeah, yeah it was. They had guns. And. Uhm. Their god was already a white guy before, wasnt it? And then white guys come with guns, so people would ‘prolly be reluctant to fight. So. Yeah. Guns.
Vulgar jew humor sucks.
Family Guy and Simpsons are two ANTI-WHITE RACIST tv shows, with jews as writers.
Let’s see the deniers come out of the woodwork.
You live in the past.
Big shot: “Philosopher” ….why don’t you be specific about what you mean.
Little minded man, show us what intelligence you have, besides your slurs. LOSER. Bring it on anti-White dupe.
your white friend date asians, because they’ve conditioned to.
When they are 40, and have slanted-eyed non-White sons, they won’t be happy about how they have been brainwashed
I am White, you are anti-White.
That about sums it up. Keep on typing.
I like negro marching bands and I am White….. hmmm….
Snobby, this isn’t the LOGO board. Gays are more lonely, depressed and have higher STD rates than Heterosexuals.
Get over it. The facts are in. You lose.
Europeans need to understand the US dynamic.
ESPN is a jew network. Therefore it will be anti-White by definition.
Therefore, the White American has been blasted with propaganda going on 25 years.
It really hurt the ESPN jews to see their “god” Michael Vick go down, all the while BrettFavre was breaking all time NFL records
The NBA is worse. Totally chimped-out, but the US negroes still lose to all White European teams like Italy, Greece and Lithuania.
ESPN is the total anti-White, promote the non-Whites networks that could ever exist, and 1/2 of their “announcers” are jews, if not moreso.
Jews hate Whites, and cannot wait until we are all gone.
NORDIC SPORTS ARE WHITE.
Norway should have sided with Hitler and not Churchill. Now that both are dead, who was right? How the hell did muslims end up in Oslo?
Don’t blame Hitler, he wouldn’t have stood for it in the Nordic lands
Fool Norwegians made the wrong choice
Ibrahim is a non-white name. Ugh.
shut up old fart.
So did Stanfurd in 2001 when they forfeited to Cal. Their problem was they got all over themselves too.
Yeah that’s a Cal Rugby player…which has lots of white people on the team…but who’s gonna say anything to Jack Clark?
Listen to this Negress!!!!
Whites invented basketball, soccer, hockey, baseball, horse racing, auto racing, and football. You know what!!! I am going to stop: every single OLYMPIC sport also was White created.
Africans know how to kick around skull and that’s about it.
You know, negress, you need to check your attitude and give credit where it is due. I know that ‘s hard for you anti-White bigots served up a diet of whitehate 24/7.
Nice try. South Africa sucks and the marxist overthrow of the Whites will only lead to it becoming another Zmbabwe, and then the white fools that read this blog will get suckered into giving money to you failed negroes.
Rhodesia.
Zimbabwe.
EVERY SINGLE WHITE PERSON SHOULD READ UP ON THESE TWO COUNTRIES……AND LEARN HOW THE NEGRO LIVES.
You are “an asian-american living in hawaii”….talking about the “bryant park project on JEW-P-R” and why should any Proper White Person give a crap what a non-white like you thinks?
Unreal.
F-ing A.
The arrogance of non-whites is unreal. Cook some rice and shut up.
Rugby songs are usually done in a party atmosphere. I think you may want to pay more attention to the context next time.
Mexico doesn’t count. Ask Lou Dobbs.
Seriously, on what level should a White person, or even a non-white, listen to your opinion about a White blog?!!!
Tell us.
Rugby isn’t macho enough for me. I prefer mah jong.
Here we go again.
This thread was “off”?
1) Mikey G. is non-white
2) Joey the Rugby man is also non-white
Gotta love these non-white experts on “Whites”.
As a white man.. I feel it my duty to point out that I have also heard Australian rules football refered to as “footy”.
ok, ok, what about GAA? Gaelic football wins at faux-sports-support (if you’re not Irish, obviously…)
Far more whitepoints than Aussie rules, because, as we all know, aussie rules is just a derivative version of the original.
Check out South Africa. Blacks: soccer; Whites: rugby.
i’ve said it before wpl ski….and tennis
So do all the aborigines and Maoris who make Australia and New Zealand the 1st and 4th ranked teams count as white?
I admit their hair is pretty straight compared to Da Jews, but all the same I’m pretty sure if you made out with them, you’d look like a Benetton ad, buddy.
The barrier went down around 1963 actually, when Indian Harbor YC admitted successful America’s Cup defender Bus Mosbacher after he was blackballed at American YC (and over a dozen prominent members of American quit in protest).
I could list a dozen top racing clubs that have Jewish and/or Asian members to my personal knowlege, but if you don’t already know they have non-WASP members, you probably wouldn’t recognize the names or know they’re the most prominent yacht clubs in the country.

” frostback on April 10, 2008 at 11:33 am
best rugby team in the world are the All Blacks NZ. ”
Try telling that to a Welshman pal – but be sure to adopt a defensive stance when you do. And as for telling it to a Welsh woman … nah, we don’t even want to think about the consequences of that. Even Welsh rugby players are scared shitless of that branch of humanity. That’s ‘cos we all have a MAM! Ohmygod the most fearsome creature on the planet.
Near enough four hundred comments about rugby, and this is the first mention of the Welsh. I can only conclude that no one commenting here is White if rugby is something White People like – which it is. That includes you Im not rappaport.
In 2008 the Welsh rugby team has hammered the English (they’re only poofters so that doesn’t really count), the French (more poofters), the Italians (more poofters), the Scots and the Irish. In June we’re off to South Africa to give them a a couple of rubber-dickings too. Shortly after that we’ll be off to Oz to rip their ears and testicles off (that’s what happens in scrums for the commenter above who didn’t want to know), and then it’ll be the All Blacks. “All Black” is their kit not skin – Maoris are honorary Whites because they can dish out a good kicking too.
I’m a Welshman (that’s White in any language if liking rugby is the determinant of white) living in England. Gotta fuck my luck though (or my judgement). I live a ten-minute walk away from a stadium where on alternate weekends I can watch world class football (that’s real football, not that poofy American game where they get padded up) and world class rugby league – but being Welsh my game is of course, rugby union. Bugger!
Oh yes, I’m not rappaport – I married an Asian woman (Indian) – black hair, brown eyes, dark (very) skin. I have blonde (well, before it went grey anyway) hair, blue eyes and very White skin. Our daughter has blonde hair, blue eyes and very White skin (with rosy cheeks). Go figure mate.
People who are plum loco are crazy for Plums.
Whites Folks just plain crazy as in PLUMB Loco!
BeeAhTCH!
the wrong kind of white people
Don’t forget the beer drinking
Cool man, but how about BAYWATCH BABE ERIKA ELENIAK running around like EVE, now that is what White People Really like……
there aren’t any white jews?
OK guys, but as a white bloke I like babes and laptops, Rugby is only cool, and fast and furious when we talk about RUGBY Seven…………. And please don’t LOOSE your laptop, someone might empty your bankaccount in the time you can blink an eye……….
Rugby hurts!

Duncan, your comment was uncalled for. There was nothing in what CLURT wrote that a reasonable person should find offensive. –Jeff in Houston, Texas
Isn’t that the american way
No, they just produce anime porn where tentacled beasts rape schoolgirls.
Or is ‘the tribe’ behind that somehow too? 😛
White People Love the All Blacks
Karen I like you what are you doing sat. night?
dUNCAN WHILE THE ABOVE MENTIONED SPORTS ARE INDEED WHITE THE IMPORTANT THING IS HOCKEY AND BASKETBALL ARE CANADIAN
I challenge any of you to step out on a rugby pitch and see how long you last. And then you can talk however you want about rugby.
in fact you should probably do that for any sport…
listen I don’t want to argue with you but … while there have been some black hockey players of note it is a white sport.
what about badminton!! sure the best players are far eastern , but i think it is one of the whitest sports there is and while i’m at it no has mentioned golf-WHITE
Ever wonder what it is like to be a street evangelist in New York City? Read one man’s story here: http://www.liberalati.com/?q=node/233
you might get hungry remember to grab a sandwich !
Sir henry while I will agree with most of what you say. My gram is welsh and i wouldn’t want to cross her. I’m not a big fan of rugby but i do remember the all blacks going on an undefeted run for years and years impressed the shit out of me ! Of courese there are the french to consider …
Because its not forced down our throats like basketball. Maybe because rugby players don’t play the sport to quit college and become a pro for millions of dollars, then rape women. Fox sports net doesnt even come with most cable packages, so suck Rick Fox’s fatty.
I didn’t know community colleges had biopsych departments.
White people LOVE the mullet – but only ironicly.
Many of my fellow yinzers love the mullet too – but all too sincerely.
Why don’t you put it to a vote?
Would people object to having a “gay” in the neighborhood, or a pedophile like you?
The only facts that are in – noted a few weeks ago – is that you are not white.
You’re hijacking whiteness like religious fundamentalists are hijacking Christianity – only for the purpose of perverting it.
You’re stuck in some morbid “Sarah Jane” hell. That’s too bad, but SWPL isn’t your movie set.
wp love to consider the french.
only if i get to wear pads
i want to have wiener sex with you
I didn’t go to this school, but I know people who did and participated in this event: there was party given by University of Houston students near campus. Both football players (D-1 scholarship guys) and rugby players showed up. There was a fight between the groups and the rugby team wiped the floor with the football guys. Personally, I’ve tried to talk ex-D-1 players into playing football and almost all of them said no because they were scared of getting hurt. That pretty much settles the pussy aspect of the two sports.
not against non-white people though. makes them feel bad.
Rugby, what the hell!!! Americans don’t play Rugby, and let’s face it, Americans are the only true white people. Hitler sure as hell wasn’t white, and neither were the prisoners sent to Australia.
wp love to challenge any of you.
wp love to wonder what it is like to be somone else and then not read their blog.
Rugby sucks. Real Reason white guys love rugby
http://aniggaincyberspace.com/2008/04/11/black-nerd-revolution/
………because black guys and Mexicans don’t. This is good. As it lets white guys have the starpower in front of thier girlfriends who they make show up at every game.
wp love to feel their duty
I am an urban white male.I love this site and was wondering is there any like this for black people too?Its stereotypical but generally true and i believe a sister site that was updated about black people likes would be great as well.
Like all the entries on this set, I appreciate the acute observation and the biting no-holds-barred wit. However, I would put the entire ‘Rugby’ entry into the ‘advanced white people’ category.
This bears out, I think. When I was stationed in Fort Drum, NY (or as we called it, “Hell”) – which is 85 miles north of Syracuse, I noticed that a lot of the local high schools which were by and large working class/lower middle class had solid, popular lacrosse programs. It was definitely a stereotype-buster and I always attributed its popularity in that area to it being Iriquois country.
i do know of one person personally that did play rugby…and yes he was white…case closed…
wp love being pervy on the interwebs.
White people love curling.
It’s a Man’s game.

wp love offering unsolicited advice.
*Only crazy for organic plums from the farmer’s market.
I had a Welsh grad school prof who loved loved loved to find an excuse to extoll the virtues of rugby in general and Welsh rugby players in particular. He’d been annoyingly chauvanistic if weren’t such a mesnch.
I played hockey for 13 years in Los Angeles. It was fucking expensive. The league fees were over $500 per season. Two season per year. Skates over $300. Sticks about $90 each. Stick blades about $20 each replaced every 3 weeks or so. Skate sharpenings $7 each time every couple of weeks.
It ain’t cheap.
What about curling?
This post is way too damn long to read.
You mean your black.
This site is not called Stuff European Americans Like or Stuff Caucasians Like.
I love anime porn.
I’ve seen several asians with mullets.
Christian,
don’t believe the hype. While this post does, to us US readers, sort of betray your “Canadian-ness”, because this is a bit British and Americans don’t like being British because we’re too proud and they have bad teeth (ITS TRUE), the ideas behind it are SO true to the point, and I still fully love you. And this blog. And you.
Love,
Maz
I’m not Rappaport is a jew
wp love to proudly and publicly advance their “new” ideas without fear of looking like a fool.
How do you know he is not white? It is possible you are not white.
It’s possible you think you are white but have some non-white in you.
I can actually tell from you posts. I think you have some indian and south asian blood in you.
hah hahaha. These guys are funny. A couple of jewish people playing around because they are bored.
gay
I’m sorry, but do you have a point? Might I say the same of your culture and kids shooing each other in school etc? Grow the heck up. Better still, pick up a rugby ball and test your cojones.
I agree it doesn’t count.
Since most of them are in california and texas anyways.
I miss the Negro Leagues.
I guess I’d missed to see that ‘I’m not Rappaport’ is the token irrational moron on the site. I should have just ignored him.
My apologies.
You think that was pervy you have led a sheltered life
Curling?
Yes. I played and it aint cheap.
I have a feeling you are not white. You should have ablood test to confirm it.
Wow. Snobby really got to you. You are getting very defensive. I think snobby hit a nerve.
But none of them like rugby. Did you read his post.
I like hockey. that does not mean my wife, sister, mother like it.
Are you sure they were all-girls?
Bill Clinton is white.
I’m not Rappaport is not white either. He is of minority blood.
Unless he lives in California then he is of the majority.
Costs aside rap, hockey is too mainstream. The white people featured on this blog pride themselves on stuff that is obscure. Elitism is a way for them to feel good about themselves.
I love your blog, someone who thinks a “white problem” is having/not having a well-read partner should not be making the below mistake. It makes you look stupid, and not well-read.
Rugby’s greatest appeal lies in it’s uniforms.
it’s = it is
its = possessive of it
I think it’s really white to care about grammar.
Please provide a link or reference to the report where you received this statistical data.
I would like to verify the facts before I comment further.
Is this statistical information you provided from a university study or the census bureau?
I’m not Rappaport is a fag?
A white fag.
Whiter then curling?
snore
I guess he backed it up.
I think there’s a white re-claiming of middlebrow “bro” activities on the horizon. Rugby is a masculine, slightly-contrived interest to take on (except for those who genuinely like it as more than a cultural statement, of which I know a few), however, let’s be real…UFC is UF-fuggin-C. I see more white guys taking up an interest in light and middle-weight boxing (no heavy-weight boxing – there isn’t the same level of “athleticism” and “strategy”, or so I’m told) as a culturally safe interest to adopt when confronted with Maxim magazine-aligned coworkers. Even a small circle of gay friends are getting in on the renewed interest in pugilism. Their explanation? “It’s better than porn”. Gotta love the gays sometimes.
Not to get too Cultural Studies-student on it, but I think the coastal brain-drain and abandonment of regional tastes (if you’re from the midwest it’s done with a particular amount of shame) in favor of new-yuppy affectations has peaked, especially with the appearance of a spot-on satire like this site. Some white people are going to be mining their middle-class suburban roots for authenticity, in a move not unlike the mullet/trucker hat/Americana appropriation of the early 00’s, only this time with more authenticity.
Mark my words – the Xbox, Judd Apatow whitey will be coming to your dinner party and will be able to hit all the white conversation points (MA/MFA programs, free health care), but will also discuss the strategic brilliance of Halo 3 without a hint of shame. Be afraid.
Like Norway would have turned the tide of the war to Germany. Funny.
Therefore, it is pretty clear that Norway made the right choice.
Yes. Your fathers sperm was white. However, it appears that your mothers egg was either indain or south asian.
Duncan just plain around. Don’t take it seriously.
Lacrosse defintely a better choice. You know your in the right white places when you see fresh faced tweeners playing catch with Lacrosse sticks.
We’ve almost got more Lacrosse than soccer leagues where I live. Also at my high school we had an excellent rugby team because there was a large Tongan/Samoan comunity near us, and the coaches got exceptions for these ringers to attend our school.
Blacks invented spear chucking.
wp love acute observation and biting no-holds-barred wit almost as much as they love creating new categories.
I’m not Rappaport has two things in common with his paisan, Michael Jackson – wannabe white and a NAMBLA card.
wp love to have their words marked.
What about the spear chuckers.
I love how you accuse someone of being an “intolerant liberal fag” when “fag” is probably one of the most intolerant, hateful words in our society.
Ok. Where should we meet?
I will pound you into the turf.
wp love ringers, especially minority ringers.
curling anyone?
Sorry, but rugby (along with lacrosse and bocce) is so late-1990s. Since the last winter Olympics, curling is the new up-and-coming pastime for upper middle class whites. Curling club open houses are packed, and at most clubs in the US, membership is at an all-time high.
You also get the chance to become an ice snob.
“Playing on arena ice is nowhere near the experience of playing on dedicated curling ice.”
“Yeah, I know. And the dedicated ice in the States is less predictable and slower than the ice at Canadian clubs, where they have full-time icemasters. Curling in Canada is a more authentic experience.”
“You haven’t experienced authenticity until you’ve curled in a little two-sheet club in Alberta. I was at this club about fifty miles outside of Calgary when I was visiting my cousin there, and I swear they had 26 second ice …”
He may be a fag (apologies to fags), but he isn’t white.
Rugby is a tremendously popular activity among white-person lesbians.
True. First roommate in college…rugby
Two best friends…rugby
Just had a friend say if he could play any sport…rugby
great female friend…rugby
Dont forget that they also love it for the drinking culture..Rugby socials

wp love to believe they’re the first people to suggest curling as an alternative, more-white sport.
Sarah, as a professional editor and writer, let me officially go on record as saying people like you really annoy me. If you have time to nitpick someone’s grammar and punctuation in the course of commenting on a blog, you have too much time on your hands.
I still find punctuation, grammar and spelling errors in my own blog even when I look back at posts I’ve read and re-read a half dozen times over the course of months.
And when you’re writing AND editing your own stuff, it is incredibly difficult to catch errors because you know what you meant to write and your brain often passes over errors you would catch in someone else’s work.
And if there are any spelling, punctuation or grammar errors in this comment, don’t point them out. I have a lot of shit to do and one thing I don’t do is waste time proofreading my comments heavily…or I’d never get anything done.
Go get a life that doesn’t involve pointing out the minor shortcomings of others please. Thank you.
Nice try but a bit of a stretch for 2009. Wait until 2020 or so and you may be able to cash in on the curling craze. It’s light years behind white (American yuppie) rugby which was popular in a hip elitist circles 50 years ago.
wp love testosterone.
I love your work about the rugby, but you really have it wrong about Australian Rules football!! Aussie Rules (AKA “footy”) is the quintessential bogan (bogan=Australian equivalent of trailer trash) sport that no self-respecting white person would ever confess to a fondness for, unless they wanted to be forever ostracised! (and yes, “ostracised” is the British spelling!)
I’m trying to figure out it the use of British “s” rather than “z” is indicative of more or less whiteness.
Perhaps I’m Not Rappaport or one of our other learned scholars of Whiteness can help. After all, they’ve shown they understand so much about Jews ruling the world and White male sperm being so great.
But on the semi-serious side, why is it that so many American whites feel that British/Canadian or Old English spellings will automatically make their businesses more successful (Theatre, Centre, Shoppe)?
But you are missing the point completely! The main appeal of Rugby is the uniform… I do not think the white people described on the site would be caught dead in a hockey jersey. No way, no how.
And those that insist on maintaining such a filthy, perverted lifestyle can look forward to Rappaport being on the prowl. He will hunt them all down – especially the young, blonde feminine ones. He’ll then pin those race traitors to the ground. There will be no escape as he get his rugged, manly face up in theirs and demand that they repent. Those who say ‘yes’ will get a good, solid spanking so that they may remember what that lifestyle will get them if they ever stray again. Those that say ‘no’ will get it even worse. He will make it extra-nasty for them as pulls out his studded, leather-lined paddle and wacks their tawdry hindquarters. He wil do this while subjecting them to verbal abuse as well. Ooooh yeah, they have it comin’ and Rappaport’s gonna give to ’em! Yes sir, he’ll be on the prowl, and soon! Beware!
wp love to state that some people believe they’re the first people to suggest curling as anb alternative, more white sport.
curling anyone?
Do aborigines like Aussie rules football?
All sperm is white.
Here we go again with the exception disproves the rule drivel as in: “my grandfather smoked three packs a day and lived to be 98.” Of course I watched the mostly black U.S. men’s basketball team lose to the white European powers in the last Olympics. Of course I’ve seen great white athletes smoke individual black athletes in track and field events. Of course I’ve seen footage of Max Schmeling (sp.?) tagging Joe Louis for a K.O. in their first fight. So what, you win some and lose some at the highest levels of competition.
Now take this multiple choice quiz: Which small minority of non-whites, comprising about 12% of the U.S. population, accounts for a large disproportion of first-string participants in college and professional, football, basketball, baseball, and track and field. Which group holds the most team and world records?
a) Inuits
b) Rappaports
c) Non-Rappaports
d) Blacks (African Americans)
Ok this one is annoying. There is no connection between fey anthropology students, etc that are the ‘white’ people this thread is lampooning and Rugby.
Rugby is slightly middle class, but not entirely, see Wales etc. I hear it is pop in America too, and why not, its pretty much American football with no throwing forward or pads.
Sorry it just sounds like the author doesn’t like Rugby and is erroneously saying those who do, do so just to be superior.
Many just like a game that involves collisions though.
I prefer competitive ballroom dancing as my favorite obscure sport as I wouldn’t recommend rugby to wp who lack dental insurance.
North American white people love to act european
I myself prefer curling, but you athletically challenged white people wouldn’t know anything about it.
PS it involves a broom and ice
this site is incredibly funny. each post i discover how white i really am.
Shuffleboard is the new elite sport. It is one of the few sports in which you can wear linen and drink champagne simeltaneously.
In the sporting world of elite anglo-saxons, you don’t get “soiled’ unless it involves horses. That way, even if you are dirty, you can still look down on everyone.
wp love leading sheltered lives
I’m not Rappaport : The only thing that you know about Tuscany is the all-you-can-eat gorge-fest at Olive Garden.
Eating there makes you look like daddy bigbucks in the eyes of the under age youth that you stalk.
wp love validating their whiteness.
tornados love serving as the symbol for an inadequate cock.
Not into sports unless Nude Twister or wild sex could be counted as a sport?
Guys look good in Rugby style shirts but the sport is lame-O
Football is a sport dominated by blacks, nothing wrong with that, its just a thing called life.
When are you going to write about GUNS or Video Games. Us white people love that!
wp love pomposity.
I’m not Rappaport : Shouldn’t that be INTERBRED!? You can’t be white if you’re struggling with English.
I’m not Rappaport’s parents, of questionable pedigree, INTERBRED, and produced issue; father subsequently fled to another prostitute.
i do!
false!
this is true. i love the sport AND the jerseys. and just look at any (white) clothing brand, j.crew, tommy hilfiger, etc.– rugby polos abound. quite stylish.
“wiener sex” with I’m not Rappaport will be “short”.
His little circumcised member is the bane of his existence – that’s why he chases the young ones. He uses a garden hose washer as a cock-ring.
You’d be pissed at the world too if women giggled when you dropped your pants.
He never got over the ribbing that the guys in the locker room lobbed his way.
“Hey, Rappoport; that’s an awfully small dick – for a Jewish guy!”
He’s still fuming!
The man has a code, what can you say?
the hub is a fag.
Lots of comments about this not being right on, but I would argue that A) you are not white enough B) you are missing the point. Maybe its not rugby, maybe it is cricket or curling or whatever but the point is the same. We white people love to get on board something that is unpopular in the states and we love to argue its superiority to its US counter part. C) if you or your two friends don’t fit that mold you certainly know someone who does like that small group of kids in college who formed a Cricket Club which consists of getting together and watching cricket matches on satelite tv
P.S Stella Artois. White people love to order this out at a bar and complain about the high price and say how in Belgium (where they studied abroad at or visited over xmas break) “Stella” is like the Coors Light of beer.
Deacon Blue, maybe it’s the same thinking as when someone deliberately misspells a word in the name of a business, i.e. “Kar Wash.” It’s suppose to be eye-catching; make them look twice. Just a thought. –Jeff in Houston, Texas
Rugby? Really, rugby? Ice hockey (or “Ice Soccer”) I could see…even though (or especially because?) it’s horrible. I’m lily-white, and I’m a baseball guy, through and through…so I suppose this makes me an anomaly. Most everything else on the list I agree with, but rugby is pushing it. White people do like the outfits, though. Those get-ups are tremendous.
Nobody because Cal wins the championships every year and JC is a scary man.
that’s true for France. in England though rugby still very white.
and of course there remains much racism in football – like Lazio for example or even my hometown Rangers. Even in France, remember when Le Pen said that whites shouldn’t support the national football side becuase it “didn’t reflect France.”
the blog is brilliant because it applies the racial moniker of WHITE to people who want to be all things and everything to all people all the time – ie., rich american urban liberals.
I’m from Glasgow – where your more likely to get your head smashed in for supporting Rangers than to argue over a latte. Now I live in New York and i fucking love being around white people that don’t think swedgin and slashin’ stangers is the way to spend a saturday.
@ A tornados28…
…all sperm is white? Oh, my…I guess a visit to my doctor is in order, then. 😉
(Of course, I’m pretty sure you know I was referring to earlier comments that only the sperm of White males can produce white people….)
The only two yacht clubs with which “I’m not Rappoport” is familiar is the Eljer and the American Standard. Probably in avocado green, at that.
He’s the “Commodore”. Of course, a day of blissful sailing is invariably ruined by somebody banging on the door, insisting on using the toilet – oh well.
wp love offering their opinion beginning with a phrase like “maybe it’s…” when they know, deep down in their white little heart, that the opinion they’re about to offer is absolutely idiotic, but offer it anyway because they just love to hear themselves speak.
wp love the hear themselves speak.
Dan, you’re so right about curling, but I must clarify one thing, I’m from Alberta, we have 14 second ice, and our international curling stars get mad when ice abroad is not as good as Canadian ice.
wp love using that ambiguously gay winking emoticon, especially when talking about sperm with another dude.
Take your all-american bs elsewhere, you’re not white enough for this blog.
I bet you like nickelback, more red than white
Yeah, it’s “awesome” and “organized,” if you’re POOR!
Although I’ve been a fitness-buff since getting out of the army twenty-nine years ago, I’ve never been interested in any sports, either watching or playing. I just don’t get it. With most of them there’s just two possible outcomes: one side or the other wins; not a whole of suspense there. It seems like it would be watching the same movie over and over and over again.
(The various forms of racing: more than two participants but they’re just going around and around in circles; what on Earth is the appeal??)
That said my fiancee’s thirteen-year-old son plays rugby and so of course I go to his games. She and I agree that rugby is more interesting to watch (if you’re forced to watch) than when he was playing (american) football. In football there’s the rush, the tackle and then everything has to be set up again; “yawn.” In rugby the ball is in play for much, much longer and maybe because of that the kids look like they’re having a lot more fun. Food for thought. –Jeff in Houston, Texas
NASCAR is an expensive sport for the participants, but it’s a sport for a poor, white audience. Hockey is also an expensive sport to play notwithstanding the lower-class audience.
Jack Clark isn’t scary. Just don’t piss him off and you’re fine.
Who doesn’t?

This post is weak, all posts after the book deal are weak.
Thanks a lot sellout asshole.
Confucius say: Man with handle “happyjack” should be careful of assuming sexual desires, repressed…real…or nonexistent…of other people.
So, if I use the 😛 emoticon, do I get white people credit for boasting my skills at oral arguments with the ladies?
Ok, I think this one finally makes me officially white. We like rugby because you practice twice a week, get drunk afterwards, and get to sing loud obnoxious songs with other part time athletes. Much like weekend lacrosse and hockey leagues. And dont forget picking some asian girl as rugby queen while your in college. After denying and denying this one gives me 22 out of 95 i think I am official now.
there you go! Thats what wpl, saying “there you go” and “misses the mark”, not rugby.
I pooped in my pants.
See what I did there? That’s funny, cuz I took someone else’s shtick.
I suspect Mr. Lander is trying to make the blog and book seem more distinct from each other…he’s been playing with different styles and themes of posting since just before and just after the book deal was announced.
On the other hand, haven’t ruled out the “sellout” theory…but I would have sold out harder. Being the mercenary ass I am, I would have taken the book deal and stopped trying to do a blog at all anymore…saved myself a lot of time and effort. I for, one, am too cheap to buy the book and need this blog, so long may Christian Landers reign here at SWPL! (Now that I’ve sung your praises, C.L., can I borrow a couple bucks?)
no. you get white people credit for being a literal-post-interpretting ass hat.
I am Halfrican-American, I did grow up in Northern California, after being adopted by white people
I wonder what’s worse. A black kid adopted by white parents or a white kid adopted by black parents.
I like to think Karma will bite him (and his alter egos) on the butt and leave behind a nasty staph infection.
I completely concur. White people do like rugby. I also like hockey. I assume that’s something white people like as well.
For slaves. 🙂
Well considering Saturday is a rugby day, saturday night is a social (drink-up) night. oh yeah, and having sex with my bf.
The other reason white people like Rugby is because most of them would get their butts creamed trying to play American Football. Most white people do not have the natural athletic ability to compete in this sport. More importantly, after having been pampered for so much of their lives, they cannot tolerate the heavy duty hits and hard work outs required to be on an American Football team.
Lacrosse is definitely THE sport among affluent white people; if your high school does not have a Lacrosse team then you’re definintely not living in a wealthy Westchester town.
Also in South America, actually in Argentina, one of the best national teams of the world.
Rugby in Argentina is like in England, upper class only play it. But since ten years for now, the middle class is playing too.
I’ve played for nine years, and this post definitely misses the mark. There may be a few white people who like rugby for the same sorts of reasons that they like the “idea of soccer,” and it’s true that a lot of white Europeans, South Africans, and Australians love rugby; but in North America (where I think this blog is really aimed), rugby is a sport for “the wrong kind of white people,” as you’ve put it so well elsewhere. Yuppie types need not apply, and if they do, they had better keep their mouth shut about everything else you’ve posted on, or the wrong kind of white person will probably call them a fag.
another reason that white girls like rugby: they have a chance to associate and make more gay friends. There is a large segment of women’s rugby that is bi or gay. The perfect opportunity to prove your open and accepting attitude.
so – non-whites like myself have no right to critique any aspect of white culture…in fact, us “rice cookers” have no opinions of any value…ok, thanks adolf…got it.
comments like yours are indicative of your “great race” growing far too complacent with its sense of privilege and false sense of entitlement. i look forward to the day that you and your ignorant kind in-breed yourselves out of existence. asians are taking a disproportionate number of spots in academia and industry because we work harder and perform better than arrogant, lazy, and increasingly incompetent assholes like yourself. You’ve had your time – and now you’ve wasted the gains made by your ancestors – step aside.
um, happyjack…can you not take a little lighthearted jab as well as you can hand one out?
You didn’t use a “j/k” in your post…must I?
I’m assuming you’ve never played the sport. 80 minutes of nonstop action compared to an hour of intermittent play? you’ve got to be kidding me. it takes a lot more fitness to play rugby. in the off season (winter, because we play in the spring, summer, and fall), all we do is run (both long distance and sprints) and lift weights. American Football is a joke. how many concussions do you see in football? I see one just about every saturday. Broken limbs, noses, black eyes, bruises, cuts, and no complaining- you just wrap it up and play.
I’m white. It’s fun!
Ha ha! I’m so white!
Us white people DO love hockey. Hee hee!
Yep!
Lesbians are like the ultimate white people!
Whiteness! Awesome!
White is beautiful! Word!
Not mine!
I completely agree with other comments. This post needs to be edited to add other possible white people sports:
Ultimate Frisbee – you usually play in college (white people love college) on an intramural team.
Lacrosse – More of an east coast thing.
Water Polo – Big in Europe, but maybe more the eastern part of europe or italy/spain area. Not so much in france. However, you can’t really wear a water polo jersey to the farmer’s market.
I thought about Hockey too, but it seems that hockey might be the wrong-type-of-white-person sport.
Super cool!
I love ultimate frisbee. It is a lot of fun to play with friends!
And I love cock!
I love man games!
I’m white enough for this blog!
I am!
;p
You need to get to a doctor quick then.
Sounds pretty good!
I am!
😛
yes, I know.
Aw yeah!
😉
I like curling up with a good book!
😮
Okay. I will!
Are you named after Tom Cruise? He’s awesome! Did you see Mission Impossible 2? He did all of his own stunts! Can you believe that? What an inspiration he is!
I’m white and I love mountain biking.
Grammar is very important. It drives me crazy when someone doesn’t know how to use a contraction properly. Grrrr!
😦
Me too! Do you want to go mountain biking together some time? I could be so fun!
White people like pedantacy! (which is probably not a word…)
Where do you live?
I keep getting internal server errors when I try to post. What’s up with that?
Actually, rugby is a sport for whites in S. Africa, most of the players on that teamare white, in a country where most are black. Their soccer team is almost all black though.
Rugby is very popular in Namibia though, and of course in the south Pacific, it’s the #1 sport by a wide margin in islands like Tonga or Fiji.
Curling is a hick sport in Canada, kind of like bowling. Not very “White People”.
I agree with people above though, rugby is not quite a White People sport, because it’s too jockular. Fratboys and campus republicans love rugby, which is not exactly the “White People” constituency. So not a perfect fit there.
Ultimate Frisbee is the whitest sport out there, followed by bocce ball (very ehtnic but also very chic)
How about croquet and lawn bowling. Unlike rugby with its potential for irreparable damage to reproductive organs, the ladies can dabble fashionably in such genteel Anglophile pastimes and still have babies.
Dude, you have some problems.
So is he your friend now? I guess you told him what was good for his people.
Shut the fuck up, White People love Ultimate Frisbee.
Actually, rugby is huge in Ireland too. Kind of like in Australia, where you have AFL and cricket but people also care a lot about rugby. O’Driscoll is the most popular and famous athlete in Ireland the last couple of decades, along with Michelle Smith and Roy Keane.

It will be a beautiful day when our beloved white race will come back and inherit our domain as our teutonic forefathers toiled and fought to so bravely preserve our place for this modern age. When I see our beautiful white Nordic Aryan sisters such as Princess Madeleine of Sweden, my heart leaps to think of how precious our superior ubermenschen heritage is.

Then, I see some disgusting pig nosed mongloid ape like Margaret Cho or Rosie Perez and it makes me sick that people around the world are worshiping such disgusting anomolies of nature just because the sick gook and jew media is portraying these baboons as the “hip” concept. Never on my life would I want these animals to pollute our noble blood. SIEG HEIL!
Sorry to tell you, but rugby is a sport for total poshos in Britain — those who went to a private school and are called Tarquin and eventually become what I would call “yuppies”.
Might I add that that it’s utter bullshit that rugby players don’t wear pads — that’s why they wear their shirts so big. That being said, it is much more physical and harder in the cardiovascular sense than American football. You white folks sure know fuck all about rugby, letting this poor little black girl tell you.
I don’t recall seeing those clubs in Lloyds Register…
Not Rappaport doesn’t even know who he’s addressing anymore. I hope his white sperm wasn’t spread anywhere.
I’d be ashamed to be call him my father.
This idiot is undecided about his own race, and secretly in love with a jewess like that nazi a-hole in Schindler’s List.
Take the advice of another blogger and start your own hateful, ignorant blog. All you know how to do is talk out of your ass.
People come to this blog for a laugh.
Your comments, Not Rappaport, are a drag. Is your life so miserable and your world so small?
So sorry for people like you. All you do is take up space.
hahahahahahaha. well done tornados.
i walk away from my laptop for a few hours and get pwned by the biggest arse on this blog.
wp love being pwned.
~happyjack, the orginal
In World Cup play only Brazil and France can be considered mostly non-white successes. All other WC champions have been all-white teams (including Uruguay and Argentina). Not only were the most recent champions all-Italian, they were also drawn exclusively from the Serie A Italian league, arguably one of the four best professional leagues in the world (all in Europe).
This year whites lead Premiership scoring by a wide margin. If non-whites do not dominate the striker position then claims of their overall dominance are risible as they are mediocre at other positions.
Inter-Milan won the Champions League with 10 white starters.
You may be under the mistaken impression Spanish and Portuguese players are non-white because they are ‘Latin’. Sorry.
love the uniforms!

As in most things Le Pen is right about football. A leftist French politician said the same thing about the French national team so it’s hardly a matter of politics.
But didn’t Zidane make all of France proud!
ah, but does New Zealand have cute lil’ orphans for the saving?
+ killer vineyards.
I’m fairly certain that most Norwegians are happy with the side they chose.
I am. (I’m 50% norwegian with a mix of Welch and some other northern euro shit).

@brown eyed girl re: “Just go ahead and pull the plug on it right now before anyone else here sees how boring it is.”
Not to worry, girl…very, very few people here (if any) check out the desperate spamming attempts of the wannabee-leeches trying to get new ‘friends’ over to their blogs by linking to them from here.
They just don’t ‘get it’ (that nobody gives a toss), but thanks for the heads-up anyway…I just assume they’re all useless and banal anyway; thanks for simply proving me right by taking (wasting) the time going there. Cheers.
Yep, huge at my HS, right up there with rowing. My school was as white as they come -short of a private school.
do you have a job? You’re like that guy at the gym that’s always there, no matter what time you go.
Just sayin’

If African Americans swamped the game of rugby with athletic talent the way they swamped the game of American football in the 50s, 60s and 70s, “white players” would now be called “spectators.”
Doubtless, you only regret that you have but one life to give for rugby.
Don’t let those ruffians tally!
I’m not Rappaport wrote : “Sorry, tamblu: It takes the sperm of a White male, and only a White male, to produce WHITE CHILDREN.”
Uh, I’m not Rappaport: Your “mommy” only told you your daddy was white because she couldn’t really be sure which of all those guys could possibly be your daddy; she didn’t even get their first names, much less a pedigree.
That’s why that old saw: “I’m part Danish, part Polish, part Lithuanian, part German, part Hungarian, and just a smattering of Azerbaijani is such a good descriptive of mutts like you. All those sperm were bound to hit an egg.
Bob..Water polo??? Imagine how cool, sexy and ruggedly handsome you’d feel entering the Farmers Market or a sports bar wearing Speedos and that silly bathing cap instead of an authentic rugby shirt with collar. The vice squad would beat you to death with lacrosse sticks.
he New Zealand team is mostly Maori and Samoan. Non-white players are just starting to break into South African rugby (check out the Springboks line-up).
Lacrosse would have been a better bet in terms of numbers. Of course there are Black players on college teams, and I played through high school and I’m a non-white Latino.
Oh well. Sports may not work out too well for this site.
AFL is the best kept secret in the world:
Asian chicks and men from the British Isles, now that is a combination I haven’t seen before….
Asian girl gets to move up to the next rung in social status and gets a legit beachhead in the white community, as if the degree from UC Berkeley was not enough.
White boy gets a girl that won’t give him any lip, and will take good care of him,due to her Asian family-oriented value system, as he is a highly prized white trophy man.
Of course, the elephant in the room is sex organ size…. oops, I didn’t just write that! Ignore it and move along people, nothing to see…
Yea dude what position do you play
I just ran across a sports betting site that let’s you bet on games from the NBA, NHL, and MLB for free and earn real $$$ when you win! The site is totally ad sponsored so the advertisers give you the money to bet with…pretty sweet idea. Definitely the most original idea I have come across this week.
White people like to bet on sports as well….;)
nice post, and that rugby ball pictured is from the Argentinean league, which makes it uber latte white (rugby plus Third World)
Whites win the vast majority of Olympic medals despite being only 7% of the world population.
Why are you so intolerant, and all you posts so angry? Not everyone is going to think like you. Calm down non-White control freak.
GO BEARS.
Did someone say penises?
This is your first weak post. That’s a compliment.
Are you from the UK or something? That’s so interesting…
Fine looking woman!!!!!
I think now that Churchill and Hitler are both dead, that in 100 more years Whites will conclude that Hitler was right, and Churchill wrong.
You already see this failure of Churchill in Londonistan.
To be fair, white people love Europe. And white Europeans love that shit.
die Zionist pig!!!!
LOL!!!
take it easy tamblu, stop WHINING!!!!
Margaret Cho? What is this, 1994?
You know, Whites really have invented a lot of different sports and games.
More than any other race, that’s for sure.
good one .. what I love the most is the hilarious action shots:
I discovered this fantastic niche of photography when I somehow ended up on the mailing list of a Rugby Apparels catalog. Pages upon pages of endless entertainment ..
gays are more prone to depression, and they lead lonelier lives than heterosexual males. I don’t know about lesbians.
It’s also well documented that gays have much higher STD rates than heterosexual males.
That’s just reality.
Wow!!! I “was” buzzed last night on that prior post!
In Vino Veritas however, it’s still all true.
My, my how easily and quick the Asian supremacist side of you comes out!! Yeah buddy, you’re perfect!
Why did your relatives move TO A WHITE COUNTRY if Asian life is so great?
Why do you never see Whites move en masse to Asian countries?
If you see less Whites around, it’s because they are AVOIDING you, and (sadly) trying to find some peace in this world where the non-whites will not leave Whites alone.
He said in his post that he went to high school in 1963!! That qualifies him as an old fart!!! Besides he’s arrogant, and why is someone born in the 1940’s even posting here?
It’s a free country.
I can call him an old fart!
I love this site. Another great site I found that isn’t so tongue in cheek – http://www.theweeklywad.com – just some fun white stuff (travelling).
Gooks, get back to your filthy 3rd world country. This is a white aryan man’s dominion! ??DEUTSCHLAND UND HITLER..SIEG HEIL ??! (Germany and Hitler, Victory Hail!)
Norway didn’t have a choice to make.
There wouldn’t be Muslims in Oslo had Germany won. Whites in Europe would be better off, and 1/2 of Europe wouldn’t have fallen to communist anti-white mass-murderers.
We’ll see what the next few generations think as Oslo goes down the tubes and Bergen gets the wonders and joys of third world diversity too.
Norway fielded an SS division and they were courageous anti-Bolsheviks.
I am glad that simple factoid is sticking with you!!! It’s true.
“Only a white couple can produce white children.”
Why does that BOTHER you so much??? These white guys dating “asians” because they think it’s cool, they are in for a rude awakening when their first-born son comes out chinese.
Yes he did. Thank you.
They are both unnatural. Did anyone notice how israel just deported thousands of Darfur refugees?
They push this multi-cult crap on the West, but don’t live it themselves. Jews do not adopt Chinese or Blacks because they prefer to maintain their race. Isn’t that racist? 😉
shut up I was drunk on Sassicaia last night!
white and not a fag.

“Only 25 percent of all slots at Harvard, wrote Unz, remain for that 75 percent of America that is non-Jewish white. Catholic ethnics and white Protestants are being crowded out of the Ivy League.”
Whites need to stop letting the non-white rule the “diversity” game, which is just code for “less whites” at every opportunity.
NO!!
The elephant in the room is their kids will be non-white and the dumb White ends his lineage forever.
I guess these people don’t care that their first-born son carrying on the British or White family name is chinese-looking?
It’s a disgrace. How did things get to this point?
You WISH to be white, but you’re really a Sarah Jane johnson – hiding your identity.
Dude…….
have you seen the Chinese that are colonizing Africa these days? The investments, the relocations to the continent, etc.
It will be interesting to watch how the African handles it, because the Chinese aren’t going to be a civil or gullible as the Whites were.
The Chinese will get a free pass on it though, because the liberal Jew only objects to this kind of behavior when it’s “Whites” doing it, proving once again how much jews hate Whites in particular.

The Chinese are hard-working and they don’t have the yoke of judaism around their necks. While the U.S. spends its tax dollars on a war to defend the jewish parasites, the Chinese invest their money in factories and technology.
Europe idiotically gave up its prized colonies around the world to appease the jewish mindset that Whites shouldn’t rule over non-Whites. Now, those chickens are coming home to roost as China, with all its confidence, is eyeing the African prize. A Europe infected with jews is a death sentence to it’s people. Instead of White people colonizing other lands, Europe and America is itself getting colonized. If we don’t do something about it, it will be impossible to undo the damage.
China doesn’t listen to liberal jews, to their credit.

For everyone’s information, Wright’s kids (the ones who have defected) say that he stopped believing in God a long time ago, if he ever did, and his “God” schtick is his way of irritating groups of people he doesn’t like….I don’t know why the news outlets keep calling him a “fundamentalist” since his beliefs are contrary to the Bible, (especially his belief that there are no real Christians outside of his “church”), but whatever.

NoDak. It gets no whiter than that.
White people prefer college sports because professional sports are “too commercial”, “filled with thugs” (their way of saying that there are too many undesirable black people), or “not about the love of the game”.
It is in no way relevant to white people that professional football, basketball, and baseball have the better atheletes. It’s best to not even bring that up.
White people also love to complain about how much money atheletes make, while moaning about how teachers, social workers, etc. get paid less. It’s a good idea not to point out that sports are a form of entertainment, and most atheletes don’t make nearly as much as the white actors, musicians, or directors that white people love.
It’s also not recommended that you point out that the social lives of rich white actors, rock stars, and celebrities are filled with far more drugs, sex, and general debauchery than the average NBA player can even afford.
Wow, you managed to be completely racist while not making any sense. Congrats. Shame on the Jews for thinking that “whites shouldn’t rule over non-whites”….hehe. What are those Jews thinking?
PS This China situation is making a lot of white people completely conflicted. Most upper-crust whites adore socialism and still believe that if we just followed the Communist Manifesto more closely, communism would work. But they also really like Buddhist monks…

Do I need to remind people that the top Rugby team in the world today are the All Blacks (from New Zealand)? Heavy Maori contingent there – try calling them White, to find out how far you can fly in a straight line.
Happyjack, your remark was uncalled for. I was just trying to answer Deacon Blue’s question.
If you’ve been in a white person’s apartment or home you might have noticed a funny thing that looks like a cross between an PC and a large CD player. It is what we call a laptop and it is an important stuff for modern day people.
We love our laptops for a number of reasons, the first of which is the fact that it will look sophisticated and smart if you use one. In fact………
You’re right… there is no violence in your country at all perpetrated by your ethnic group against itself. That’s basically possible.
…what do you think your anonymous hatemongering is going to accomplish? Is the SWPL author going to turn around and say, “Wow, this guy who’s not Rappaport is just so smart and right!! Guess I better stop writing this!” Doubt it. So if you don’t like it, why don’t you stop annoying people?
I am a white woman who has thoroughly enjoyed your blog. I have learned one very important lesson from it. I make a lousy white person. From my very first remembrance, I wanted to be black. I don’t act black either, though. I guess I would most characterize myself as a woman, not who is white or black, but who loves the Lord with all her heart, mind, and soul.
It’s a good idea not to point out that sports are a form of entertainment, and most atheletes don’t make nearly as much as the white actors, musicians, or directors that white people love.
Excellent point. And let’s examine–who were the popular kids and who were the losers in high school? The conventional American sports players were popular and the losers were in band, choir, the drama club, etc. That’s it! All this Stuff White People Like is really just losers playing out the issues they had in high school into adulthood!
Perhaps the correct wording is White (upper middle class and wealthy Americans) like playing sports where they are likely to win, and unlikely to get the crap beated out of them by a non whites. Please note the typical white American kid playing Rugby is unlikely to ever compete against a Moari, Namibian, Aborigini, et al.
There are no winners or losers in high school only incubators filled with pissing infants. If the high point of your life was high school then your life is a case of infantile arrested development. It’s what you achieve after high school that separates the men from the little boys; the women from the little girls.
Geo8rge, you’re right. Several comments up the line express my concurrence. You correctly identify the right kind of white person Lander is satirizing, “upper middle class and wealthy.” (I might add “college/graduate-school educated, liberal young urban professional, cultured and hip”) Lander’s genius lies not so much in his selection of topics -some “seem” more relevant than others to reasonable people who will argue from their own individual experience- as in the audience- relevant and witty ways he develops these topics through the literary devices of a professional writer of satire. At the end of the day, Lander does not need every reader on board just a critical mass that constitutes a viable audience.
Sarah has only got in touch with her inner schoolmarm. It’s a chick thing which is purely hereditary. Don’t blame yourself, Sarah. It’s not your fault.
most fundamentalists beliefs are contrary to the Bible.
fundamentalists believe in stripping the meaning out of everything and reducing everything to a black and white / right or wrong reality.
while they base their beliefs on things that are in the Bible, they could not be further from the point of the Bible.
Well said. “Keeping it (rugby) real” also imparts the indispensable value of keeping it anglophile. “Being stuck up” entails the subliminal privilege of participating in an ultimate white person’s sport played today as in days of yore by both peers of the realm and stout yeoman for the glory of Merry Old White Person’s England.

Pedantry.
In the Olympics, spear chucking is called the javelin throw. I think the ancient Greeks invented the sport.
10% of MLB players are black.
98% of Div. 1 college players are white.
The last 3 NBA MVPs were white.
The NBA single game assist record holder is white. The season free throw percentage, season field goal percentage and season three point goal percentage record holders are white.
17 of the 22 boxing title holders at middleweight and heavier are white. 4 of the 5 heavyweight titles are held by whites.
The four whitest teams in the NFL are also the most successful. Coincidence?
Not a single NFL passing record is held by a black.
All world record holders in middle distance running and strength events are white. This includes weight lifting.
The whitest countries win the most Olympic medals, on both an absolute and per captia basis.
The all-white, all-Italian Azuri won the world cup over a ‘superior’ ‘French’ team. Not even close.
The best military units in multi-racial countries are white. Years pass before a black qualifies for NAVY SEALS.
Only within the narrowest focus can blacks claim athletic superiority. Basketball, American football, short distance track. But to some this means blacks must be worshipped.
I take it back. Blacks are superior. At crime.
45% of aggravated rapes
89% of interracial crime
56% of murders
approximately 20% of serial muderers
30% of white collar crime
67% of armed robberies
No prob though. They’re good at sports.

Back in the eighties it was said that black rugby in the townships of South Africa was the best. That turned out to be a load of liberal crap, as usual. Why? Because the black man never passes the expletive ball!
You know how Magic Johnson got his nickname? Because he was the first black man over 6’8″ in history ever to pass the damn ball!
You see, back in the 1970s the idea of a black man passing the ball was so unheard of that it was indistinguishable from magic, and opposing teams were simply spellbound. Now, Mo Cheeks and Dennis Johnson could pass, but they had to, since they were both only 6 feet. Neither of them were a Bob Cousy, but serviceable nonetheless. Anyway, that is how Magic Johnson got his name.

This blog should be renamed Stuff American White people like
you’ll eventually be left alone – ghettoized in your trailer parks, unable to hold a job if you EVER get hired, fat, drunk, and bitching about “how thangs was before the darkies and slants took over…”
you’re INCREDIBLY ignorant, unaware that your “white country” was founded on the land and graves of Native Americans and enriched by the enslavement of Africans. Now, the most dynamic sectors of the US economy are loaded with Asians and other non-whites, paying the taxes to fund the welfare system that you’ll likely be getting your checks from.
Your ancestors too MOVED here, and like I’d said before, probably worked very hard only to see one of their spawn unable to think critically or adapt to a world that requires a lot more than than your shoddy ability to complain.
I don’t think this entry is up-to-par with the others. Rugby seems like the type of thing “the wrong kind of white people” like. Soccer is understandable, but I associate rugby with beer guzzling frat boys who, by definition of this blog, would be, again, “the wrong kind of white people”. Also, the writing isn’t as good as in the past.
Please make this blog amazing again!
i don’t really think they’re as conflicted as you think – the love for buddhist monks definitely seem to be the greater of the love of the chinese political system. Besides, we could hardly call the Chinese government communist/socialist. Marx and Mao are probably turning in their graves. China is a single party dictatorship that has adopted the free market and profitablity as its guiding principles over the past 20 years, privatizing EVERYTHING and underfunding all sorts social programs that had been in place during its more purist-socialist days.
White folks adore religions that they over-simplify as mystical and peace-loving. Rooting for oppressed peoples helps privileged white folks address their sense of white guilt without actually having to sacrifice a thing.
I love how you call yourself a halfrican american, I think people should use it more, its way easier then saying your black even though your half white, or saying your white even though you have slightly darker skin and are half black. I started saying Halfrican like 2 years ago and thought it would never catch on, im glad to see others are using it too, because it perfectly explains your race without throwing either race under a bus. Obama is a halfrican.
Jump the shark? I’m going outside and spit in the face of the first white asshole I see, what kind of a fucking dumb saying is that. Jump the shark, go to starbucks, vote for Obama, save a whale, save a fucking tree and eat a beaver. Play rugby, looks like a dumb gay white sport, stick to darts in pub.
Hm, I think the ethnics like rugby in some of the former colonies.

oh perfect, my bf played rugby in high school, has his shirt still, loves to talk about it whenever it is relevent.
Oh man. I go to, like, the whitest school ever, and we have a huge girls’ rugby team.

In high school, my sister and I used to find Aussie Rules games waaaaay up on the highest-numbered cable channels. This was always a cause for happiness, because Aussie Rules players are incredibly hot, wear tiny shorts, and like to tackle, hug and grope each other.
If it’s my favorite sport for extremely shallow reasons, do I still get white person points for liking Aussie Rules?

I’m mostly white, and this post is pretty true. All my friends wear rugby jerseys and no one plays rugby. What’s even better though is getting a boyfriend who plays rugby, cause then you can brag about how tough he is AND steal his jerseys.
Whitey you could win your weight in bullshit. White people love assists in basketball because they are compelled to claim this part of the game as their very own crumb of superiority over the blacks who dominate the scope of the game both in college and the NBA. (Whites also love white players who are standouts in free-throw shooting and 3-point plays.)
Your rap on defective black rugby in the townships of South Africa “back in the eighties” not only echoes the They-can’t-pass critique you falsely attribute to the American basketball arena, but more tellingly sounds the primal white scream:
“Blacks are not intelligent enough to learn and play the white man’s sports.”
A final observation: Catch an NBA game on television. You will see both in the live action and the instant replays should you require them that blacks are excellent passers and play makers.
This is a very interesting post, I can assert! Would really appreciate your feedback on my personal blog –

“A final observation: Catch an NBA game on television. ”
I’d rather not. Like most White People I am turned off by the thuggery and poor sportsmanship of the NBA, see my statistics in comment above. The NBA is, television-wise, a wasteland; ratings are in free fall. Nobody wants to watch heavily tattooed thugs hog the ball and not play d for 48 minutes.
Which brings us back to the original point: the Black Man ******SUCKS***** at rugby, to the point that Black South Africans are whining that their rugby team should implement affirmative action, because no Black guys can make the team on their own merit:
“In July 2006, Springbok coach Jake White told the press he had been unable to pick some white players for his squad “because of transformation” – a reference to the ANC government’s policies attempting to redress the racial imbalances in national sport.
…
South Africa’s World Cup winning side of 1995 fielded only one non-white player (Chester Williams). This continued in the team’s biggest matches of the 1999 and 2003 World Cups, and in the 2007 World Cup final the team fielded two non-white players.[9] Despite quota system existing to encourage Super 14 and provincial teams to field non-white players, and the fact that there are more non-white then white rugby players in South Africa,[10] transformation has been slow in the opinion of many.
South African Rugby Union president Regan Hoskins considered the number of non-white players in the 2007 World Cup squad too low,[9] and in 2008 the first non-white coach of the side was appointed. The political pressure on rugby coaches and administrators to select non-white players is strong; 16 of the 35 new Springboks appointed by former coach Jake White were non-white.[9]
ANC Minister of Parliament Butana Komphela expressed a view held by many politicians in the country when he said “Sport cannot be excluded from imperatives of empowerment and transformation.”[9]”
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Africa_national_rugby_union_team
whites also control, for the most part, the sports that are included as part of the olympic games. i find the fact that whites win all the skiing, curling, and hockey medals sort of shoddy proof of your olympic theory.
from a more racial-political-economy perspective, you have to also think about the huge national sports programs that countries use to identify their best athletes and train them (great athletes are not just born, they are MADE), and “white” countries usually have many more resources they can devote to developing athletic talent for culturally favored sports. you may want to think a bit outside of your narrow, white-supremacist box
Moshe, you’re taking your eye off the ball. The cheery-picked and sometimes incoherent statistics you cite are all over the field and bouncing off the walls. Blacks enjoy a clear advantage over whites in the core athletic skills of speed, quickness, agility, and strength which are required by the consensus prestige individual and team sports. I suspect this advantage is buried in subtle complex variants in the black African gene pool. NOT IN “RACE.”
Step One: Go to the 2007 NFL Pro Bowl site. The roster on both sides is dominated by black athletes (Of course the quarterbacks are all white because everyone knows that blacks are too dumb to play quarterback.)
Step Two: Go to a track world record site. Black Africans or athletes of black African descent hold world records in every event from 50 meters through the marathon, which surely includes “middle distance events.” (The record for 1500 meters which is held by a brown-skinned Moroccan is the lone exception).
SPECULATION RELEVANT TO RUGBY: Rugby requires an athletic skill set that black athletes excel in. If rugby had become the team sport of choice in African-American ghettos in the decades following WWII, rugby would have long ago lost its cash-value Anglophile mystique in the elite white person’s imagination. Lander may well have been able to satirize SWPL marginal aspects of the sport but his post would have been very different had blacks not been culturally fenced off from contributing their best athletes to the game.
You are certainly entitled to the ethno-centric grievances you deduce from the details of this story. It’s just not the whole picture.
Rugby? You serious? I guess it’s inevitable after so many ideas, but come on. White people like creativity and diversity, so unless you come up with some better ideas, the majority of your readers will stop coming here.
An *authentic* White Person would never use the term “entitled”; we reference scholarly data and statistics, rather than resort to passive-aggressive po-mo whine-speak. Now, go watch your tele-vision.
WASPs hate Rugby? Rugby is the most WASP sport there is. It was invented in England at the private Rugby school.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rugby_School
I don’t think either is “worse”…I think it is a GREAT way to diminish race lines. I love my white parents. And back in the early 70’s no one seemed to question the interracial adoption surge. My parents did a GREAT job of raising me, didn’t even know that I was ‘different’ till we moved to Lake Tahoe and it was kind of hard to not stand out. Even still, I identify with ME, not a race. I say mix everyone, everywhere, any how! Adoption, marriage, whatever… One day the whole world will be ‘brown’, and no one will know what ‘race’ they are.

This is stupid. Everybody knows that it’s not not the jerseys. It’s the fact that fewer Americans play it from an early age so your skills are more likely to be evenly-matched or better than other players even though you started playing at a later age.

Here in Cali, Tongans from such badass places as Hayward, Concord, Oakland, San Mateo, etc., etc, represent hard in rugby from youth up through men’s clubs. So pretty hard to play the sport in Cali without getting pounded by and trying to smack Tongans, Samoans, Fijiians, etc. So it ain’t just for lilly white suburbanites…
Last time, I checked, the All Blacks ain’t won squat on the World Cup stage. They are the New York Yankees of rugby–all the talent in the world who can’t win the big one. (Yawn, I here the rest of you say, sorry, just keepin’ it real.)

Of course, when the SA rubgy team CEASES to exist as his has historically, nobody will address the true reasons. Sorry Mr. Kenya if you don’t understand that Whites have very good reasons for wanting to avoid negroes.
You can say what you want, nobody is censoring you. But don’t try to say what I say is false, because it isn’t.
The Springboks won’t exist as they have, in a few more short years, as SA goes the way of Rhodesia which is now INHOSPITABLE for Whites to even walk the streets in.
Let’s all reconvene in ten more years when will see the collapse of SA in the exact same fashion.
It should be damn interesting to see how the media COVERS UP the crime and collapse of SA during the upcoming World Cup. There should be some great internet articles covering the real news, outside the MSM.
excellent analysis! Bravo, for speaking as a White person, although you are talking about soccer!!
Anything sadder than a D. 2 or D. 3 football player who lives the illusion that he is a “special athlete?” (Actually, sadder would be not going to college but that would kill my rant.)

Me play American football. Me rape and beat women (OJ, Lawrence Philips, Ike Turner–made that one up–Universities of Miami, Colorado, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Fresno State, Notre Dame, etc, etc,)! Me cut deals with campus cops to keep name out of student and shitty daily paper.
No, I don’t. These guys will have a rude awakening when their first born son comes out with coal-black eyes and slanted eyes as these are characteristics of asians and not whites.
These guys have problems if they think “asian” chicks are “cool”. Why? Says who? I think it’s disturbing that white guys could even be so racist as to think “asian” is cool in the first place. Losers.
You’re not white, whitey. At least admit it.
On whtat basis whatsoever do people think hockey is for lower-class people?
Have any of you ever been to an NHL game? It’s mostly upper-middle-class that can even afford the ice time and all the gear necessary.
Compare that to basketball, which takes a ball and a playground.
People don’t know what they are talking about, and they are exposing their non-White credentials.
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
tornado, you are kinda the jekyll and hyde of whites!! Sometimes you are right on, but other times you parrot the anti-White brainwashing that’s shoveled out. At least you have some correct instincts, it’s good to see.
TIGER WOODS is 1/2 asian, and only 1/4 black. Stop listening to the anti-White racist media!
You da joo dude!!!!!
Uh, Cal plays and beats Little Sisters of The Poor , Helen Keller Academy and worse–Stanford– in rugby every year. It would be like a college in New Zealand having a varsity baseball team and just beating the shit out of the schools where baseball is just a club sport. To Cal’s credit, other area schools have stepped up but Cal has all the $$$ and resources. ie. Witter Field. At least in the last few years they have tried to step up the competition. JC seems like a barrel of laughs—not.
I just dropped by to see what kind of Stuff White People Liked. I’m Black Negro Colored Afrikkan American take your choice or your pick. I have 2 lovely 1/2 white biracial multicultural racial ethnic (did i miss anything?) lovely granddaughters. Wanted to mk sure I wasn’t missing out on providing them the best of the best.
Just having fun with ya. Nice blog!
Have a Flawless Week!
I can answer that.
There is not one place on this earth, where blacks live and self-rule where it isn’t a hellhole. That includes Detroit, Zimbabwe, Haiti, New Orleans, Kenya and all the rest.
It apparently does matter, along with all the other genes.
Listen to this historical revisionist!!!
500 guns to take over a city (Tenochtitlan) that had over 1 million inhabitants?
Do you think they brought that much ammo on those ships?
No.
Dude, you are a Godsend.
Look all at a true White person!!
“moshe”? LOL!!!!
CLURT: review http://www.castefooball.us and get back to us.
This site discusses whites.
No he didn’t. It’s just a total waste of my time to answer slurs that I am non-White. Snobby is homosexual, right snobby?
Gonna deny it, proud boy????
Moshe is right: Only within the narrowest focus can blacks claim athletic superiority.
snobby: You can’t put medical statistics to a vote.
“Several lines of evidence suggest that the elevated psychiatric morbidity well-documented among nonheterosexuals compared to heterosexuals is largely unaccounted for in terms of stigma, prejudice, discrimination and victimization.”
Aboriginals don’t usually play rugby.. they play Aussie Rules..
tornados, you’re like a half-ass White.
I’m White and you’re a homosexual. These are the two things here that are 100% true.
Dude, I have a couple of cases of it. It goes down very well!!
PS What’s the deal with some homosexual chiming in about wines anyway?
Everyone knows that White men with families have been making the world’s finest wines for CENTURIES. Sorry buddy. Wine-making is yet another heterosexual (and White) pursuit.
D-1 players look bigger because they wear pads.
There are plenty of rugby players in the 200-260 lb. range, in fact most of them.
Sout Asian or Indian? Why? Let’s hear your analysis and conclusion, should be really interesting.
Nice anti-White racist rant.
Again, why are you on a White blog in the first place?
Did you ever answer that? I don’t recall that anyone ripped on Asians per se, but that a non-white was being hyper-critical of content on a White blog.
excellent work!!
are those somewhere else on the net to download?
er…I mean “pirate”?
My uncut man-meat is only for the benefit of woman-kind!!!
Say no to genital mutilation. In no White culture in history has circumcision been a custom.
Several lines of evidence suggest that the elevated psychiatric morbidity well-documented among nonheterosexuals compared to heterosexuals is largely unaccounted for in terms of stigma, prejudice, discrimination and victimization.
What the hell is a “Judd Apatow whitey”? Isn’t that the same thing I’ve been saying? “the jewified white little weasel”?
They are a disgrace to Whites everyone on the globe.

Um, excuse me, but why do you have to clutter up the blog with your homosexual-supremacist stuff? Why don’t you go find your own blog? This is a White blog.
Shame on the Jews for thinking that “whites shouldn’t rule over non-whites”
Is that some kind of sick joke? Jews rule over non-whites in Israel with an iron fist and an apartheid system.
The Chinese are hard-working and they don’t have the yoke of judaism around their necks. Jews also won’t be able to move their change their names and become anti-chinese liberals either, the Chinese will be able to spot the jew before he brings his sickness.
When the US goes down, which next big dog with the jew jump to like a flea, as has been his history?
Hebrews need to watch it, because I don’t think “Asia” is going to work for them like the white countries have for the last few centuries. The Asian won’t put up with the jew.
Yeah, somewhat.
There are also studies that show that people “driven” to seek “status” and ultra-riches are doing so because they are the ones that STILL feel inadequate.
Many jews exhibit this “I’ll show them gentiles” pissed-off attitude. Many of these infantile middle-aged jews will get divorced and then basically “buy” the white women they couldn’t get the first time around.
It’s pathetic, but quite common. Have you met any “investment bankers”? Do you think they are “men”? Most of them are little weasels and dweebs.
To be confident and happy and content in life, like many White men are, but not “hyper”, “jew-like” or “greedy” is a sign of strength, not failure.
When the negro American basketball teams play by actual basketball rules, like in international competitions, they lose to White European teams.
Yeah, tell the negro that he can’t take three steps on the way to the basket, and he’s lost.
Free Palestine.
Time is finite and Whites prefer to be with their own kind, unfortunately the anti-White racists and cultural Marxists are doing their best to hate Whites every day.
personally, I think the White European races provide enough diversity. Who needs more? It’s counter-productive.
biracial and mixed-race kids are not instrinsically lovely. Beauty is the the eye of the beholder.
Most mulatto kids have trouble indentifying who they are. Blacks hate them as not being “black enough”, and they don’t fit in well with Whites.
Having mulatto or mixed-race kids is a sign of the UTTER SELFISHNESS of the parents.
Seriously, you should really rename this site ‘stuffyuppieslike’ or post a disclaimer. As a white person, I hate yuppies too, and love this site, but the name is misinforming.
you are an idiot. are you speaking against interbreeding? that is ludicrous. it is perfectly fine for people who happen to have different amounts of melanin in their skin to have children. i really hope you are joking.
finally! some rationality. hahaha, good post.
If you want white, white, white, forget rugby and go straight for bandy.
I and about 50 other people saw the Bandy World Championships in 1995. Except for a single Asian-looking guy on the Kazakh team, everyone on the ice and around the pitch watching was as white as white gets.
south africans are the best in the world at rugby. white south africans love black south africans who play rugby for the national team.
When you refer to “soccer”, I think you mean “football”.
Bear in mind that “American Football” is actually a bastardised version of rugby based on allowing the forward pass, and having to wear padding because they’re all afraid of getting hurt (poor babies).
Are you having a laugh?
The highest ground attendances for any national league in the world – of all the world’s football codes – is…..the AFL (Aussie Rules). More than the English Premier League or any European league including the powerful German league, more than America’s NFL, more than all the South American leagues.
Well that would make them the first beloved affirmative action hires in history 🙂
STUPID FUCKIN YANX DIE MUTHACUNTS AINT YOU SEEN A NIGGA OR A RUGBY PITCH OR IS IT U PUSSY NIGGAZ JUST GET FAT AND PLAY AMERICAN FOOTBALL JUST GO FUCK YOURSELVES, CUNTS
Love it. Lacrosse is better though I think. We like to play with our sticks and balls and have “parties”… It’s one of the only sports where the jackasses are bigger on the field than in the stands. I could go on all day. Keep up the good work though!

It’s not the rugby jersey that appealed to me so much as the short white shorts, which allowed me to display my freakishly muscular thighs. Now, black guys have big thighs too, but given their inability to pass the ball, who cares?
Everyone is ‘roided up now anyway. Check 50 Cent’s mugshots; he was the skinniest little black man on the east coast before hitting the steroids. Soon he will grow breasts and his scrotum will disappear. So it goes.
Rugby has a large following amongst Blacks and Coloureds in South Africa. You’d be surprised. Coloureds, especially, have played rugby for many years. The national team is still largely White but there is a greater move at grassroots level to nurture talented youngsters and move them up the ranks.
Oh and by the way, South Africa is the reigning Rugby World Cup Champions…just thought I’d throw that in. 🙂
Rugby, cricket and football (soccer) are the big three in our country. Football is still mainly Black but also has a committed following amongst Whites too. The football team used to have a White captain – Neil Tovey.
rugby players are all of varying sizes and heights. due to the fact that there are basically two groups per team, the backs and the forwards.
the backs are usually smaller anywhere from 160 to 190 pounds. (though i’d say kilos normally seeing as i’m australian but i’m keeping it simple for you imperialists.) these are the guys that use agility and teamwork over force to score.
and the forwards generally in the weight range you mentioned. though that tends to be the front row and first in at the rucks and mauls. if you understand what that term means. do you? i hope so otherwise that was wasted.
but yeah their are definitely rugby players that would easily rival american football players in size and toughness.
“Color” has a yew init, you moranic American cnut.
RE: “Soon he will grow breasts and his scrotum will disappear. So it goes.”
“Soon”?
Yes, “Soon”, not to be mistaken with “Soon Yi Previn”, the mentally challenged orphan who was viciously taken advantage of by Woody Allen in her youth. Hope that’s clear enough for you 🙂
I think Lacrosse is more popular on the east coast. Out here in flyover land no one really pays it much attention, though there are plenty of rugby teams.
i’m not white.
Okay, I will!
And I’m SUPER white!
OR….if they studied abroad in South Africa. Particularly last semester. Go Springboks!
Rugby is a great sport. I have friends who play, it is not for the faint of heart, you play rugby with the attitude you are too tough to get hurt.
“but more importantly they can acquire a Rugby jersey. Unlike a soccer scarf, they can wear this garment all year long which provides for a more reliable trinket that can be used to initiate conversations about their time down under.”
And then they wear it washed and pressed with “light starch, cuffs and collar”…..
Too F***ing funny………

yay! darts are fun! it always makes me think about holding man-sausage
Because of the pads in american football, the players run full speed into each other. It is a much more violent sport. I’ve seen enough rugby and played enough full contact american football without pads to know you play differently without pads then you do with pads.
Rugby is tough but no doubt they tackle and hit diferently (not as hard or violently) then they do in american football.
You don’t want to get hit the way Ronnie Lott hit people for the SF 49ers without wearing pads.
and also, your tight buttocks causes me to feel funny in my crotchial region.
OK
What were we talking about?
I like the all you can eat buffets.
I’m not fat though.
There’s an idea. A blog called Stuff Fat People Like.

Soccer players flop like girls way to much. Everytime they get bumped, they fly to the ground writhing in pain as if they had their leg cut off.
hey that sounds neat!
i don’t have any friends. would you be mine?
I like beer.
No, it came from the jungles of Africa first spread through North Africa into the Mediteranean area.
Yours is infected.
Is that why you’re happy?
Team USA has won medals in ALL 15 Olympic tournaments it has competed in, including 12 GOLD MEDALS. Certainly the American representative has fallen on hard times in the 2002 International Championships failing to earn a medal and less so in the 2004 summer Olympics where Team USA settled for a disappointing third-place bronze. International competition has definitely improved.
Since 2000, the Olympic and international teams have been poorly recruited, trained, and coached mainly because of heightened preoccupation by American NBA players with their professional careers, declining interest and morale. Seven NBA players who joined the 2004 Olympic squad dropped out for various reasons and another 7 invited to play on the team declined. We’ll have to wait and see if Team USA can regain dominance over international basketball. I would guess that unless the U.S. can recruit more talented NBA stars and superstars their record against improved international competition may continue to be spotty.
The spammer forgot to put the link. Funny.

Have you seen a Miami University football game recently. Thugish.
The blacks dominate the game because the grow up in the projects playing ball 12 hours per day rather then doing their schoolwork.
Using someone elses name. How original.

I’m not Eli Stone: Try reading the first paragraph again; get back to me when you think you understand my question.
The Sarah Jane Johnson reference stumped you, didn’t it?
Oh, and that schoolyard comeback; how long did it take you to think that one up?
Sure; we believe you, Anita.
REAL whites don’t drink quality wine for the “buzz” – yet another confirmation of your NON-whiteness.
John Cartwright McCain Hates Spam too.. but he thinks it’s that canned meat stuff.
John Cartwright McCain is an ignorant Luddite (not that there’s anything wrong with that)
umm clearly youve never played rugby or football. the key difference between the two is BLOCKING… in rugby, you cant block, and tackles must have an efforted arm wrap. football, you have shoulder throws and helmet to helmets.
Lancelot..?
So; you’re “confident and happy and content in life”!?!? Your postings belie that, and because they do, it stands to reason that you are in fact NOT white – just as others have pointed out in previous comments.
Hoisted by your own petard as it were.
Eli, or whatever your name is, I think I’ve figured out who you realy are:

But now we know why you’re so miserable all of the time. 🙂
There is a similar white sport that is gaining traction (pun VERY much intended) in America, because we do love curling so, but lack the weather to maintain interest. It’s called table curling. Here’s how it works: On a pool table, one person shoots extremely slowly with closed eyes, and his or her two teammates stand at each side of the table and blow the ball to make sure it stays on course. What’s more, the injuries are usually limited to fainting.
Now you’re squirming so much that you changed your “name”. Sarah Jane Johnson fits you far better than any of the monikers you use.
You consistently fail the whiteness litmus tests, because #1: true whiteness is foreign to you, and #2: because the tests are too subtle for your little mind.
Have all of the tantrums you want; your scam has been uncovered.
The Nordic Aryan is the epitome of perfection of all races in the world. Slopes, gooks, mud races, and blacks are all stepping stones to evolution to acheive the ubermenschen of Northern Europe.

In the West, major opposition to the demands of homosexuals comes from organized Christianity. Homosexual activists often blame Christians for creating a so-called homophobic environment that results in their victimization and increases the prevalence of mental problems among homosexuals.
On the one hand, Christianity certainly does not look favorably upon homosexual behavior. On the other hand, in Scandinavia and the Netherlands, homosexuals enjoy the best societal acceptance anywhere in the world. In addition, Scandinavian or Dutch Christians who publicly criticize homosexuals or oppose their demands, face prison.
However, Dutch homosexuals manifest elevated mental problems, like their American counterparts. Likewise, homosexual Norwegian adolescents manifest elevated suicidality compared to their heterosexual counterparts, which can hardly be blamed upon a homophobic environment. Surely, it would be premature to conclude that the elevated mental problems of homosexuals entirely result from so-called homophobia.
We’re talking about how snobby is a depressed homosexual trolling a White blog.
Do you ever wonder what all these people you seem to be so forcefully sick of, think about you? They don’t.
Sure, maybe homos don’t. Whites don’t drink Scotch for a mood changer either.
Fool.
Keep on coming with it. Oh, the irony of a depresssed and lonely homosexual trying to educate a White heterosexual!
Only on the “TV”, buddy boy.
WTF??? Ash you need to get in the middle of a scrum. RIGHT NOW !!!
Mark – The people you know are NOT really white, if they don’t know rugby. You need to immediately check into a remedial white school.
I’m White, and I despise you for despising Rugby.
Seth McFarlane? Ah, his ancestors must have been part of the great Jewish immigration to Scotland in the late 15th century. Think of me as more of an educator than a denier.
ooh! i sure am! i can wear my new crocs every day!
Here is something White people will like http://onomatopoeiablog.wordpress.com/
Haha this is classic, I thought soccer was a very european “white” sport in a sense, but I guess youre right rugby is even more so
ouchie! that sounds like it would be pretty painful! like way more than that time i twisted my ankle while ballroom dancing.
You guys are way off the ball as we say in rugby…. I am not white. I grew up playing the game. Get your race related sports sorted out.
gosh. you sure sound angry. *hugs*
What are “white people”?
i’d say it’s crystal clear!!!!!!! 😉
Cool! I’m a sandals and socks guy, myself. Still, I just can’t wait to break out the old board shorts and polos for a night out on the town! Yep!
My dog’s name is Carl. He’s a terrier!

Whites invented rugby, the game you play.
One time, I got Hepatitis from doing the Macarena.
Remember the TV show “Coach?” Man, that show was funny!
That’s why you see Jessica Alba wearing blue contacts. She wishes she was White.
don’t you mean gallon of jizz?
Who are YOU???
No we won’t.
American negroes get pissed when a White person from South Africa calls himself “african-american”
They get pissed if that same person calls themselves “white” too, because that term is deemed “racist” by the anti-White racists.
Yeap… white people love to be elite. that’s what this site boils down to.
eww. dogs are icky! i have an abyssinian cat named princess hermione fluffington!
hm. as a rugger, i’m wondering if this fits white people right. rugby pints, for instance, are pretty rough… lots of vulgar singing, fraternety-like rituals, and so on.
I guess white people LIKES rugby, in terms of liking it just to be different, now that soccer is becoming too mainstream….
LaCrosse wouldn’t have worked, to you who think so, it’s not the right whites who play LaCrosse.
OMG!!!! i loved that show too! LOZOLOZLZOZOZLLLOOOLLLZ! that little old dumb guy sure tickled my funnybone!
Dude, it’s about more than “melanin”. Do you think black albinos are white? that they are the same as Whites?
It’s about far more than “skin color”. Study some genetics texts.
Is the girl on the right, “White” with White genes? http://www.theage.com.au/ffxImage/urlpicture_id_1073268011941_2004/01/06/albino,0.jpg
No.
I wish I was Jessica Alba.
Is that an offer, Eli?
I wish I could have a cat, but, alas… I am allergic.
😦
tough luck! i got my hepatitis on a bukake dare….i’ll never do that again!
B-b-b-but the american team has all kinds of advantages! They have a bigger budget and pool of players. They have finer facilities than the other countries.
See how the mind of the White-hating dupe works?
1) If it’s Whites that win, they only win because of “advantages” in coaching, facilities, materialsetc.
2) When Blacks win, it’s due to superiority.
LOL!!!

You are the depressed homosexual who trolls White blogs. White men are “generally” more content than weasel jews and angry blacks. Is that better?
Many of these infantile middle-aged jews will get divorced and then basically “buy” the white women they couldn’t get the first time around.
Do you deny this?
Me too! Did you know he was Dick Van Dyke’s brother? Now, that’s a name I can get behind.
MeOW!
Now, now. There’s enough Eli to go around, dontcha think? Share and share alike, I always say!

you’re right about that happyjack! unless of course, his blog has some new steamy pics of leo!!!! 😉
Would you believe the same thing happened to my mom? Weird!
I’m totally picking up what you’re throwing down, T-man!

Are you my dad?
I’m a ninja turtle!
yeah i have to agree with this one… i have a handful of friends who watch rugby, maybe. i think you’re referring to a different continent of white people.
hMMMM IS IT BECAUSE THEY CAN’T PLAY IN THE STATES THEY HAVE THIS RUBY SHIT MOST AMERICAN FOOTBALL PLAYERS ARE BLACK AND CAN PLAY AND MAKE MORE MONEY THAN RUBY PLAYERS
What would Jesus do?
You’re weird!
No one is happy and content in life. That’s why they call it “life.”
Why, of course!

Me too you cock sucker.
You suck cock.
You are a funny little man!
Me too!
You are funny!
I like cock.
You are funny!
Me too! We should be friends! What do you say?
So do I.
This person sucks cock also.
tornados28 is a cock sucker.
As does this person. Indeed.
We all are! Woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I do not.
Neither do I.
You are adorable, happyjack!
Not true!
I like beer though.
Weiners!
:p
How would you know?
Only… I do!
And by beer, I mean “dong.”
I like big boobies.
I wouldn’t!
Is that a Chinese beer?
Who’re you?
I think you do know. Happyjack told me.
How dare you call me a whore.
Actually, I think you are a little smelly happyjack.
Also not true.
No your not tornados28. You are very nice.
Also not true.
What the hell is going on here?
Yes, dong is perhaps the tastiest beer in all of China.
Who knows?
It is true. I had some last night.
No!
Does it have a frothy head?
Yes you are.
Yes.
I’m stinky?
Oh.
Okay.
Does a bear wear a funny hat?
Ha! That was me in disguise!
How does it feel to be pwned?
I saw a bear at a circus once that was wearing a funny hat.
Um… me too!
Actually it was me. I got all of you. Especially you tornados28.
I don’t know who is who anymore.
Not true.
No, actually it was me. All of you other ones are wrong!
Me either! This is as crazy as that time I had two lattes with breakfast! Woooga!
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also, me! Yes, indeed!
Haha! Eat it, happyjack. That bear just put you in your place!
I like all of you. Would any one like to sample my frothy head?
I did that once in Vegas. But there was a little extra in my lattes. Wooooha.
Dibs!
I can’t stand it anymore. I need to sit down.
Oh, me too!
And also me!
Save some for me, fellas!
A little extra dong, you mean?
No thanks.
Yes, thanks! Who’re you, impostor?
I love to get it in the ass from a bear. But only polar bears.
I love happyjack’s dong. I mean I love dong also.
Leave me alone!
If by dong, you mean rum, then yes.
Everyone does!
😉
I didn’t post that.
Speak for your self.
Please don’t leave me alone.
You said whore again.
Me neither.
Okay!
Wait… seriously?
I know this is the real happyjack.
I did. At least, I think I did.
Maybe not. That’s not my chair.
Really?
I also do too, I think.
Well, now I am not so sure. 🙂
Is anyone really who they say they are?
THIS SITE IS PLAYED OUT! Ugh its been a week since you last updated it. I know your working on a book, but seriously, people wont buy it if you dont have anything new to keep them interested in your site. If you think one entry a week will cut it till august when the book comes out, your in complete denial. I used to LOVE this site, but now im getting soooooo over it, your lack of anything fresh is making it hard for me to care. If you dont care about your readers, we wont care about you book. Come on, its not like writing 2 paragraphs every other day is that damn hard. Dont get all high and mighty and think you can take the time to write whenever you want. Now that you have “fans” you must appease them or there will be unrest, and people wont visit the site. I expect at the least 2 entrys a week, if you cant at least do that, then your lack of ambition will hurt you.
Only you!
😉
I admit it. I posted it. Sorry for the confusion.
I like polar bears.
It’s okay. I forgive you.
Actually I did. I love rum with everything.
Me too.
Yeah, don’t be.
No you don’t.
I don’t forgive you. You are really making things confusing here. Please stop. ;(
Yes. Please stop. 😦
Liar!
You guys are jerks. STOP IT! I’m not really saying these other things! You’re making me sound dumb and gay!
Yes, I do like rum. Especially with funny hats.
You’re not really happyjack.
You guys are not jerks. I’m sorry. I love all of you.
I mean I looooooooooooooooooove all of you. Especially you happyjack.
Oh… my… god…
Me too!
Mmmm… funny hats.

I guess this blog should be ended.
Yes, from now on, let’s all use our original name.
Cats carry parasites which turn men gay.
Cats can carry a parasite that causes the disease toxoplasmosis. You can get it from cat feces. Wearing gloves while gardening or changing a cat’s litter box is important. Washing your hands afterward is advised.
Few people who carry the toxoplasma parasite become ill. Those who get sick may suffer from swollen glands and muscle aches. Antimicrobial drugs are available to treat infected people.
T. gondii infections have the ability to change the behavior of rats and mice, making them drawn to rather than fearful of the scent of cats. This effect is advantageous to the parasite, which will be able to sexually reproduce if its host is eaten by a cat. The infection is almost surgical in its precision, as it does not impact a rat’s other fears such as the fear of open spaces or of unfamiliar smelling food. There has been speculation that human behavior may also be affected in some ways, and correlations have been found between latent Toxoplasma infections and various characteristics such as decreased novelty-seeking behavior, slower reactions, feelings of insecurity, and neuroticism.[4]
Several independent pieces of evidence point towards a possible role of Toxoplasma infection in some cases of schizophrenia and paranoia, but this theory does not seem to account for many cases.[5] A recent study has indicated toxoplasmosis is also correlated strongly with an increase in boy births in humans, leading to an alteration of the human sex ratio.[6] According to the researchers, “depending on the antibody concentration, the probability of the birth of a boy can increase up to a value of 0.72 … which means that for every 260 boys born, 100 girls are born.” The study also notes a mean rate of 0.60 to 0.65 (as opposed to the normal 0.51) for Toxoplasma positive mothers.
Other possible behavior modifications are suggested by a study suggesting that people not infected with the parasite found women with toxoplasma more attractive than women who don’t have toxoplasma. [7]
The prevalence of human infection by Toxoplasma varies greatly between countries. Factors that influence infection rates include diet (prevalence is possibly higher where there is a preference for less-cooked meat) and proximity to cats.
funny how in the market place of ideas, in a democratic space like the internet, the idea of a “white blog” has really no currency at all. to have the “whites only dialog” you seek, you really will have to ghettoize yourself with like-minded, moronic xenophobes in some backwoods somewhere (though even those spaces are quickly being bought up and moved into by non-whites that you just can’t compete with). duncan sheek – i’m done with you – not at all sorry that you’ll never attain your ridiculous goals – maybe you’ll find some other “racially pure” idiot to spawn with and move into a double-wide somewhere in West Virginia – just hopin the darkies, slants, and jews will just leave ya be in your “white country” – buddy – you’re a lost cause – you’ll find others like you i’m sure, but you’ll be increasingly marginalized due to your complete inability to innovate, adapt, and accept – you know, as your speedy demise is inevitable (not all whites mind you, are bound for obsolence – there’s plenty who have woken up and undertand the value of multiculturalism and satire – shit, it’s a funny blog that rings true in many ways but isn’t to be taken seriously at all) – sorry for the digression, since YOUR demise is imminent, i’d suggest you just hasten the process so i won’t have to devote any more tax dollars to your medical care or fruitless education for your kind. You’re a moribund breed – weeded out by new socio-economic forces that render the idea of purity and “inherent white superiority” passe and altogether bankrupt. just disappear…you’re not gonna get anywhere in your foolish battle.
That’s whack! Be happy you’ve been entertained this long for FREE! Clander isn’t obligated to make a post ever again if he doesn’t feel like it. Not because he has a book deal, but because no one here is paying him a dime to be entertained by him.
“I used to LOVE this site, but now im getting soooooo over it, your lack of anything fresh is making it hard for me to care.”

“Sorry Mr. Kenya if you don’t understand that Whites have very good reasons for wanting to avoid negroes.”
Sorry Mr. Eli Stone if you don’t understand that all intelligent people have very good reasons for wanting to avoid you.
I guess everyone went home.
Where is the new post?
http://www.stuffwhitepeopleliketshirts.com
Or just got tired of all this sillyness. I guess I will go to. Until the next post from this white guy.
I have read their Talmud, so I do know what they think. I have heard what Sarah Silverman says and she’s an anti-white, anti-christian bigot.
we can crank Rod Stewart’s greatest hits!!!
hey — impostor!!
How will people know I am the real tornados28 when I post in the furture?
I think we all need to agree on the honor system. We must all agree to not impersonate other people.
The guy in the subject thread picture is not carrying the ball correctly. He’s not in a position to pass. do not tuck the ball.
I agree.
I’m surprised cheese and fondue have not made the list yet.
OK, we’ve covered how the Black man doesn’t pass the ball, but I think we need to explore the Black man’s complete inability to play defense in any sport.
Not versed in Euclidian geometry? A basic lack of courage? An absence of the will to win? Thoughts?
My roommate and I were having so much fun with this website the other day.
We thought of one more thing that white people like: DVD commentaries. They give white people the opportunity to point out strange facts that they know about the film’s creation that others don’t know. This is especially true for commentaries on more artsy films, where they can point out the philosophical underlyings of the plot.
Just because my mother had an uncle on her mother’s side who was part negro doesn’t mean that I’m not white, you homo!
Indeed. Any thoughtful discussion on the things that white people like has been lost amidst this flood of craziness. It is shameful. Shameful.
Except for you.
Their Talmud is over 11,000 pages long in the original Aramaic. Even longer in English. You read it? Then you’re WAY more Jewish than Sarah Silverman.
Oh my god. We’ve broken the internet!
Deal.
Everyone hates you.
I can’t decide whether this is the pot calling the kettle black or just white noise.
At the end of the day there are no arguments only the game. Wait.
The last 100 comments or so remind me of the grand finale of the big Fourth of July fireworks show where they set off scores of skyrockets in rapid succession. OOOOOH….AAAAAW
wp are grateful that happyjack finally posted something funny, and are cautiously optimistic about his future posts
WOW! It’s hard to believe God has resorted to pandering His blog on someone else’s blog.
Your great-uncle was part BLACK and you claim that you aren’t!?!?!?
What happened to that “one drop rule” that your kind swear by!?!?
I don’t know, but I think that it’s time to turn in your “sheets”, or hide under them so that your imperial wizard doesn’t hunt you down.
You do know that these revelations make Hitler cry, right?
No wonder you’re an alcoholic!
I guess Chris is working on his book.

John McCain bought the white woman he couldn’t get the first time around. Eli, have you hugged a high achiever today?
i was just thinking ultimate frisbee would have been a much better post – far more ubiquitous on most campuses, far more white
Wait… which one of us is the original? I can’t remember.
wp love calling the kettle black.
No… that doesn’t make any sense. I’m a sad, lonely man.
😦

Mmmmm. Done and done, mister!
I still wish I had a cat.

Eli, your pea brain certainly nailed the landing in the “narrowest focus” competition. You are tied with Moshe, and I’m-not-Rappaport going into the finals.
You are all pathetic. I’m totally hetero. I love having hot sex with women. Especially women with penises.
I hate you all. It probably has something to do with my small penis.
Rugby is a White Man’s Sport??? Amazing that I see so many Asians, Maori, Latins, Indians, Sri Lankans, and so many, many, many other races and nationalities of color, so much more than White People. amazing amount of disinformation here…..
Canadian people like Hockey and dog sledding. Rugby is played by tiny island nations in the South Pacific like Fiji and Vanuatu. Not many white people around those parts at all.
being accused of the ultimate white crime, sellin out!
I agree with so much of this list, but this one really misses the mark. Baseball, yes, lacrosse, maybe, soccer (for their kids) sure, but Rugby? I know a lot of white people, I am white and I know NO ONE who likes Rugby. American Football – YES! Rugby? NO
Happyjack ain’t so happy anymore. You must be regaining your sanity. Keep up the good work.
I believe that William F. Buckley did not die as widely reported in the media. He is alive and well and posting under the alias of “CATO.”
What’s the deal with superfluous punctuation”?????????????”
Seems screamingly effeminate to me. Man up, and punctuate appropriately.
Of course this is highly reminicent of the pre-contact Arawaks (or perhaps it was the Caribs) who had separate languages for men and women.
impostor!
It’s called “LAZY”, a negro trait as evidenced by their failure to flee a Cat 5 hurricane in New Orleans.
Look closely at his askenazi wolf face, I think he’s a jew. Probably thinks he’s got a diamond and he’s running.
PS he should be getting the ball ready to pass to the White guy behind him, but the jew isn’t gonna pass that ball. Ball hog. Typical.
I have no idea what you are talking about. But you are gay, admit it.
See how the other half lives at stuffcountrypeoplelike.wordpress.com
snobby: someone is being an impostor. No negro blood for me, plus I’ve done the genealogy on both sides.
no jew and no negro!!!!!!!!!!!!
YES!
excuse me?
maybe you didn’t get the memo, but we’re supposed to “celebrate diversity”!
just because you are non-White doesn’t mean we want to be.
the correct English language term is mulatto.
Dude, your blog got mentioned in time (hidden away in the 100 top people thing):
http://www.time.com/time/specials/2007/article/0,28804,1725112_1723512_1724662,00.html
It wasn’t “pre-contact”– the Caribs “contacted” the Arawaks, killed all their men, and took their women as wives. For a few generations, the sexes spoke their not only “separate” but unrelated languages. Eventually Arawak reasserted itself, as the kids spent most of their time with their mothers.
er, why would a white Saffa call themselves african american. thats like a black american calling themselves african…
well…. this seems very narrowed down to a certain click of white people i a certain country. I´m a swedish white male and our white people don´t care for wither rugby or lacrosse. Our white sport is occationally icehockey. Or track and field events.
Alyson, so very true! Just this weekend I was digging through the $5 DVD bin at Wal-Mart looking for movies that I would never spend $19.95 on but wanted mainly for the special commentaries. I just _love_ seeing how a movie like _The Matrix_, for example, is made and all the behind-the-scenes stuff. (Most of them my two sons will watch at least once; amortizing the cost).
My much-cooler-than-I fiancee says that my wasp-geekiness (talking about _Star Trek_ and _Star Wars_ canon as though it were “real”) is part of what attracted her too me. Her ex-husband is much “cooler” than I am but also spent time in prison for drugs and contracted hepatitus from sharing needles.
Like so many girls/women in their teens & twenties she was attracted to bad-boys. Then in her thirties, after years of bad experiences, she finally figured out that we main-stream geeks are the safer bet.
Thank you for starting my day (here at the job-from-hell) off with a smile. 🙂 –Jeff in Houston, Texas

This blog sucks.
Yes it does.
Michael Morgan hates happyjack.
You’re welcome.
Now you’re starting to describe my life!! THIS IS NOT OKAY. Rugby is awesome! (I discovered this the hard way.)
Where is happyjack today
I’m right here… but a hollow shell of what I used to be.
😦
I can’t believe other people were posting under my name yesterday. I feel totally violated. Why would you guys be so mean?
Why does everyone hate me so much? Can’t you all see I was just trying to be funny?
Oh, and I also forgot to add that I am a total moron with no real contact to the rest of the planet Earth.
I am sad. Very, very sad. You should pity me, really, for being such a hate filled idiot.
Why wouldn’t my mother love me as a child?
we knew it wasn’t you , guy did not have the same comand of irony or sarcasim that you usualy display.
wp love to display irony or sarcasm.
How was that? Was that one funny? I’m so gun-shy now, I’m not sure I’ll ever be the old, acerbic happyjack you all knew and loved/loathed.
that was great glad your back . we’ll set em up you knock em down
Thanks, frostback. I’m just going to have to take it one day at a time.
wp love taking it one day at a time.
Proper White People have eschewed irony since the March 1989 issue of Spy Magazine, which featured a hard-hitting expose of the irony epidemic.
wp love eschewing irony since 1989.
That one wasn’t very good, was it?
Holy crap look at all these comments. Hilarious post. How do you keep coming up with these posts at the same time you’re working on a book? OMG crazyness.
BTW, check out DO NOT WANT You if you get a chance. If it’s not funny, just tell me so I can stop wasting my time writing posts.
They play both, those fast, strong, big strapping boys. No wonder the troll above wants to mack with them – they could make a poor little white boy feel so safe.
OMG i didn’t get my irony epidemic booster shot and I think I could end up spreading it all over the interweb
Really?
😦
wp love spreading it all over the interweb.
Yeah, baby. I’m back! Haha!
I feel it
It’s not funny. Stop wasting your time.
wp love feeling it. Oh! Check and mate! Still the greatest!
sorry dude I’m with bwfh
Some of it is kinda funny and some of it is not (women and sports one).
But… it’s not creative just derivative so you can’t really surprise or delight people and that’s what makes shit funny!
Yup. The women and sports post is one of the dumbest posts I’ve ever read.
You’re no bear wearing a funny hat, though.
Our Clander who art in Random House LOLowed be thy name.
Thy next post come thy book be done at Target as it is discounted at Wal Mart. Give us some way our irony and forgive us our trolling as we forgive those who troll against us.
Lead us not into snarking but deliver us from boredom, for thine is the book deal, and the big bucks, and the Prius. Forever……Whitemen
Oh my god.
The fact that you actually took the time to come up with that little prayer is astonishing.
Amen
wp love saying “thine.”
(*sigh* I can do better than that…)
Mo: Shit is funny in and of itself. Remember when you and your little brother could laugh for hours on end by saying, “doo-doo.”
I’m CLURT not curt. I can’t help it. It’s my nature.
“Thine” is ever so King James version. This is the Bible most favored by the demographic of dead white men.
wp love their nature… or something.
You’re right, shit is funny in and of itself.
But nothing else is.
LOL???? Rugby is played by lots of countries. Countries like England, France, Italy, Wales, Scotland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Argentina and many many more.
LOL???? Rugby is played by lots of countries. Countries like England, France, Italy, Wales, Scotland, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Argentina and many many more.
Maybe DO NOT WANT You should reposition itself as a blog on shit, then. It would certainly be more entertaining than it currently is.
In the UK, rugby is popular among a broad section of the population, although probably most popular with rich white people. That does not however reflect on its value as a sport. The American Sport that most closely resembles it is probably American football. However, Rugby is alot more intense, with the full 80 minutes being non stop action (with a 10min halftime break) compared with the 7 or so minutes of real action in American Football. Rugby players also tend to not wear very much in terms of protection, with players having at most a tiny bit of shoulder padding and a scrum cap to protect their ears.
wp love Michael Morgan. wp also love bears wearing funny hats.
wp love the demographic of dead white men.
Yeah… that was pretty much YOUR point, wasn’t it? Sorry–I’m still working the kinks out. Yesterday was emotionally devastating. I’ll get there, though. I’ll get there.
wp love 80 minutes of non stop action.
While Alanis Morissette is rightfully credited with killing irony, it was the REM album Monster that crippled it.
Buncha gay atheists make a glam-rock album as camp, and what happens? Only damned album they ever put out that put lead in yer pencil, and it goes multi platinum. Good work lads.
Stipe goes on some whinge about how the What’s the Frequency Kenneth was the first true post-modern crime, blah blah blah, nobody cares.
The all-conquering White Person card is, of course, Led Zeppelin.
What about all the people impersonating me. That’s how all this began. Someone started using my name.
No, what about all the people impersonating ME? That includes YOU. I bet you’re actually happyjack!
Always trying to start something.
http://www.berkeleyrugby.com/
full of white people and a few hungry asians.

Erm… do you have any idea how big Rugby is amongst the Pacific Islanders? and most of them are not white. Retard. Look beyond Europe and America will you.
The white person who dies with the most Jewish, black, and gay friends wins the “diversity” game.
yes but 2 hours after eating them i’m hungry again
Sam ,please tell usExactly how big is it? and if they are not white why would we care,and further more (thats for you happyjack) there isn’t much to see beyond europe and america.
I’ve noticed the same thing. That’s why I prefer eating Canadians.
happyjack: You get it. We’re all just trying to be funny. LOL
Did yo just refer to Irish White People as “from the british isles”? Be careful that could offend a lot of white people, see the St. Patty’s day entry.
I love nature.
I like Canadians to… with katsup
wp love watching “One Day at a Time.”
i love rugby :0) and well honestly it is better than football!!!!
Now boys and girls, remember that bear-wearing-a-funny-hat is still a wild animal. Don’t try to pet him or get too close to take his picture. Especially if you’re Canadian.
So should I stop writing? Maybe I’ll remove the women + sports one – lots of bad feedback…
come on people only 1260 more posts to knock Asian Girls of the number one spot
Now boys and girls, remember that bear-wearing-a-funny-hat is still a wild animal. Don’t try to pet him or get too close to take his picture. Especially if you’re Canadian.
Pacific Islanders murdered Captain Cooke and used his head for a rugby ball. I know whitey, Pacific Islanders never learned how to pass the fucking head.
White people love Marathons. Hey Frostback, I’m dropping out. I’ve never been this tired until I ran Boston.
Well, I’m a bear. Essentially, I’m little more than a killing machine with fur. So, perhaps you should take my criticism with a grain of salt.
… with your mom.
Or if you’re fat.
Me too. This post has destroyed my self-esteem. In fact, I don’t even care about what things wp do and do not like anymore.
My life has lost all meaning. I may never post on swpl again. Goodbye forever.
Lol, so true. The White Man’s head was preferred for a ball due to its relative softness, see MMA videos of Polynesian Mark Hunt taking a punch for example.
#10. People Who Take Criticism From Bears Seriously
Yes! Victory! Eat it, happyjack!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now you’re on to something.
who’er you
Seen the entry fees on marathons lately? A hundred bucks? Right. Fifty bucks to run a 10k? It simply does not get any whiter.
I started playing rugby in Undergrad – and as my coach still says today:
“Rugby is the most fun you can have with your clothes on.”
Now why wouldn’t you want to give it a try? Also – where is the talk about crazy rugby fans, rugby players, “drink-ups” and most importantly – the All Blacks and the Maori Haka War Dance?
You missed a goldmine here my friend.
You.
You have a typo in the URL linked to your name.
How do I know this? It’s because I am a bear. And because I am wearing a funny hat.
know thy enemy, that’s why the Jews are the “leaders” of the inter-faith movements between Christians and Jews, which of course involves Christian concession to the jewish perspective and never vice-versa.
joe57, you are kinda naive.
Don’t start THAT again.
Yes, the white man’s head is relatively soft. And delicious.
thank the gods we have “I’m not Rappaport” (is that an Asian girl name???) as the arbiter of whether analysis is “excellent.”
Oh yeah? Well, wp love moms!
(damn it… yep, I’ve lost it)
Rappaport sounds like an Asia chick name. Thai or possibly Khmer. She’s pissed because white guys have found her less hot than Sandra Oh.
Yes. “Go bears,” indeed. Your time will come, humans. Mark my words.
No doubt due to his relatively large cranial capacity and high fat content of the brain, which is loosely correlated with both his high intellect and preternatural prowess at passing.
Triple alliteration of course has its roots in Proto-Indo-European, IIRC (can a WikiPedant help me out here?)
Rapparort…. you are an ASIAN CHICK, even if you insist on typing “I’m not” in front of your name.
Go back to your job in Pattaya…
REM are gay? Figures.
That totally makes sense. Fags. I’m glad U2 eclipsed them, at least they’re straight.

Actually, I think it was due to the hair care products and skin moisturizers that you white human’s enjoy basting yourselves with, coupled with your general lack of exposure to the sun. Very tasty.
“Rappaport” is an Asian woman’s name. Probably Thai or Khmer. Maybe S. Asian. “I’m not…” habitually typed in front is only an indication of denial and self-loathing (either of which would be totally understandable in this case).
Rapport needs to get a grip on reality.
Rappaport is an Asian chick. You can have weiner sex, but it will cost you a couple hundred Thai baht….
Hold on now, what about cricket? Now there’s a Euro-sport with snazzy outfits pretentiosu caucasians can pretend to have become interested in while studying abroad on a Rhodes Scholorship. Feel free to invent your own rules when explaining how the game is played because no one west of Oxford will know the difference!
Bonnie Franklin = jew
The jewtube is full of fake Italians played by jews. Think also Ray Romano’s mother played by old jew woman, and also his brother “Brad Garrett (not his real name) also a jew.
Lancelot Link & the Secret Chimp Hour, you fascist SwineHumpT!
Um, R.E.M. aren’t gay. Michael Stipe is gay.
wp love Bono. Bears prefer the Edge.
I, for example, live in a shelter. Not because I’m poor, but because I like to save money
Jesus = jew
Sort of awkward for you, isn’t it?
I can think of a dozen or so reasons off of the top of my head.
On reflection, that made no sense at all. I’m sorry, I’m just lonely and bitter. It’s why I ignore people’s suggestions that I’m not funny. But I really do believe I’m funny. And to set the record straight (ha) I’m not gay. I hate gays, jews, and whites pretty much all the same.
all right you kids see you on the next post . tornados28 have fun and remember in the land of the blind…
Wow. That’s all I can say. Also, good job, and I’m very impressed. You really are funny, you kill. You really do, no sarcasm!!!!
Guess who??????
It won’t be the same without you happyjack give it some thought ,the world needs to hear your truth.
wp love happyjack peace.
Someone, at least one person, has been stealing my name and posting all these wp jokes that I didn’t write. I only wrote a few of them and this jerkoff is trying to get ppl pissed at me and trying to make them think I’m gay. Probably some smartass jew or fag. GO TO HELL!!!!
this isn’t the real happyjack
wp love jews and fags
only 1213 more posts to knock off asian girls post lets go
wp love sarcasm.
wp love stealing names and posting wp jokes.
wp love going to hell.
wp love only 1213 more posts.
wp love wp who love wp and so on
wp are against ,in fact you could say wp hate moniker theft
You could say that.
Beaten at my own game.
How many happyjacks are on here anyway?
Only one real one, douche.
Shut up.
No, I’m actually happyjack, jerk.
No, I’m happyjack and I’m not going anywhere. wp forever!
You’re not the real one either, ass.
Yeah, you could say that.
No, beaten at MY game. Jerk.
Yes, I would like fries with my happyjack.
Kiss my ass.
You’re not the real happyjack.
This is well said and funny.
Yes I am, you fart knocker.
Who, bitch?
No, really you’re not. I know because I’m the real happyjack.
Yes, you could. And did. It’s always the same old shit with you, fake happyjack.
Actually no. Its my game.
I hate you.
Shut it, faker.
Very clever. Some of you stole my name to make a fool out of me. Well I hope you’re proud of yourselves. This blog is lame, anyway. I’m not going to waste my time anymore. If someone else wants to pretend they’re me, let them. I don’t even care.
Have fun happyjacks. I’ll see all of you in hell.
Wrong.
I didn’t really say that. I’m not going anywhere. wp are stuck with me for the long haul.
wp and fake happyjacks love the long haul.
Alyson: You are the first woman to post a comment in a long time. Your suggested topic could easily qualify for Lander’s magic touch. I suspect that so many chicks have fled because they don’t want to “share” with guys who are not “serious.”
BTW, don’t pay any attention to the bear. He’s wearing that funny hat to get attention.
This really, really did start way back when some jerk started using my tornados28 name.
Also, tornados may be spelled tornadoes as well as tornados as shown in the dictionary.
I have to admit that at that time I also started impersonating the real happyjack. Sorry real happyjack.
I also was the first one to impersonate that German nazi dude as well.
All this impersonating may well help destroy the integrity of this blog.
Good work. Keep it up.
You’re not the real tornados28. The real tornados28 has a wordpress account. His name shows up GREEN. Busted!
maybe you’re having a hard time extrapolating on what I’ve said above. Look at the list of countries involved in the olympics of 1936 – how on earth are white people NOT gonna dominate the medal count? Dig up a bit of info on the olympic committee that decided what sports would be included? It’s a fucking blizzard of whiteness…the olympics of ’36, even more so than today’s are in no way representative of the WORLD’s sporting cultures – only of the countries that had organized and participated in the games. You’re idea of universal truths is obviously constrained by a lack of breadth and depth of inquiry – the evidence you choose upholds the racist tenets that you cling to –
nowadays, you look at “upper-class” olympic sports, fucking of course, whites are gonna dominate yachting, fencing, and equestrian events, but had the olympics been organized by post-colonial states, you would have seen a very different picture emerge – critical thinking…you can DO it despite your obvious socio-cultural disadvantage! now put your brownshirt away.
Which German Nazi dude? Since I’m-not-Rappaport disappeared, I’ve been checking under my bed at bedtime.
Be specific.
I HATE EM THEY STANK!
Missed the mark on this one, unless the site is now “stuff frat boys like”
And now for the funniest joke of all time:…ahem,
This blog site has been (ready?)..happyjacked.
(You see, “hijacked” and “happyjack” sound very much alike. So this is what humorists call a “pun.” Get it?)
My apologies to the parents of those of you who died laughing.
Hey!! I’m an American not a German Nazi.
My family fought for America in WW2, and my aunt lost a brother in France.
Regarding Nazis though, I think in about 100 more years, Whites will conclude that Hitler was right, and Churchill was wrong. Hell, that’s already happening with Whites, now that they look around their nations.
when did he get “outed”?
Man, that explains the guy’s hostility and hatreds.
frat boys rule!!!
They are good whites because they marry Whites and produce White children
Many of the “anti frat” types end up with non-White partners, bizarre non-White mixed-breed offspring, or they don’t even reproduce.
If you are anti-frat, then you are basically anti-White.
The dream of a jew or black is a white sorrority girl. They lust after these types like there’s no tomorrow.
She should have lost a nephew (or niece) instead
I think Lander’s goal is to have this rugby post their most read evvvahh!
The Romans of course reported that the Germanic tribes frequently died their already blond hair even blonder. Of the Anglii, one Roman historian recounts a pun that translates particularly well from Latin: Some fair skinned Angle children were brought to Rome by the Vikings and were in a slave market, the historian inquired as to their origin, and upon being informed they were Angles said “Angels, not Angles.”
haha lol- white ppl. love them some activewear. has anyone seen the stuff ethnic people like site? It’s exactly like this one but ethnic. Do you people know eachother?
So one of my friends sent me the link to this “Blog.” I am not white and I think this is exactly what is wrong with this WORLD!!!! I feel sick to my stomach that anyone thinks this is ok and funny. I can not even believe that I am even wasting my time commenting on this, but I find this “Blog” very disturbing and rude. PEACE AND ONE LOVE!!!
That’s because He’s omnipresent – He didn’t actually post the link Himself – it’s one of those magical unquestionably God-like phenomenon, the sort that insurance companies use to avoid paying out when a tree falls on your car for no good reason!
What tickles me is the poster’s name – so daring, so brash, so predictable… so not what we’ve been brought up to believe… I always thought Jesus was a middle eastern Jew which would make him a tanned gentleman of approximately 5′ 8″ height with dark hair, a beard, a big nose and a jeweller’s store in downtown NY.
Anyway, I doubt that even Jesus went to Italy, as that was a fascist country, and as everyone knows, they were on the side of the Germans during the last great war (USA vs. Afghanistan) – and not the current great war (USA vs. Iraq) or the forthcoming great war (USA vs. Iran) == sorry, but are Bush and his bed chums in a “who’s got the biggest dick” competition here? If they are, the US would win hands down, you have got the biggest dick, and he’s your president (deliberate use of lower case p at the beginning because he hasn’t earned our respect)…
…I think that religion, no matter what it’s name, is absolute shite! Crikey, even the Buddhist monks in Tibet are revolting! (and they’re supposed to be peaceful – maybe their rice supplies been cut off?). Tell me of a conflict in modern times that isn’t based on religion or culture based on religious beliefs – even Muslims kill Muslims – it’s an insane world I assure you…
And saunas!
Does that mean their kids will be oriental looking with ginger hair?
Shocking combination if ever there was one
Now I’m really depressed – you’ve hit the nail fair and square
And that’s just us dykes!
LOL
Thats right latchkey man 1161 more posts and we will have passed the asian girls post. With all the identiy theft going on here we should be able to reach the mark in another 27 hours.
your inability to find the humor in this blog only leadfs me to belive you are in fact the WKOWP , have a nice day .
LOL@”ONLY White people like rugby”
whoever wrote this knows absolutely nothing about the sport, African Americans do not represent black people all over the world, just because they are not in the sport doesn not mean it isn’t popular amongst blacks in countries like Kenya, Zimbabwe, Namibia, South Africa, Madagascar, and Fiji.
LOL@”Football players are weak because they wear pads”
yes the fact it is physically and mentally inferior to rugby, I wonder how many NFL players could run 2 marathons back 2 back, latest study conducted showed that in the top tier pro-teams, each rugby pro-player burned as much calories as someone running 2 marathons. If want to compare rugby to something the best would MMA, each player needs a vareity of skills to play. Rucking, mauling, tackling, scrummaging, passing, defensive formations, offensive formations, kicking, lineouts etc etc etc..
LOL@”Unlike other sports where jerseys are made out of nylon or mesh, Rugby jerseys are like thick sweatshirts with collar”
when did you last watch a rugby match, the 1980s? LMAO! Hilarious how you tried to make fun of a rugby jersey that existed back in rugby’s amateur days, yet you failed to explain why on earth American Football players wear tights…lol…how gay is that? I also remember once players used to have their jersey cut short with their belly’s exposed…lol…Oh and the padding you lot use……POOFS!
AMERICAN FOOTBALL = NO BRAINS, NO SKILL, NO STAMINA REQUIRED
btw, I’m black and I’ve been playing rugby every since our was 7.
According to Wonderlic tests NFL football players do a little better than average on IQ tests. Quarterbacks and Offensive Linemen are particularly intelligent (and White, of course).
Aesthetically, NFL football is tough to beat. Watching Tom Brady execute more efficiently than Stalin, young Adrian Peterson running roughshod, Devin Harris defying physics and martial law, or a Brian Urlacher enforcing private property ownership over a piece of land…these are beautiful sights to behold.
The continuous action of rugby makes it difficult to play at full pace; fewer brilliant runs, etc.
None of us really need to hear about your NFL man-crushes, Whitey. Don’t ask, don’t tell–keep that shit to yourself.
You spelled “dyed” wrong, you nit wit. Translate THAT into Latin.
I think the fake posters have finally gave up.
wp love finding things disturbing and rude.
I just happyjacked the fake happyjacks.
And “pro frat” types are closeted homosexuals. Like Eli, for instance.
Maybe they’re football smart , QB and OL (I’m having a tough time with that one, but they’re underrated so I’ll let it slide), but have you heard Peyton or Brady speak in interview, they’re real simple folks. Now Clinton Portis, that’s a dinner companion!
FWIW, I woman-crush the NFL!
And you are?
Man-crushes are most definitely a “wrong” kind of White People thing. And yet the literature of Roman historians is replete with accusations of homosexuality among the Germanic tribes. To which I would respond “consider the source”, and that such accusations against one’s adversaries are universal.
Back to intelligence for a moment: the highest score ever recorded in NFL Wonderlic testing among tens of thousands of prospects was by Ivy League punter and – pas possible! – Irishman Pat “Pat” McInally, who scored a perfect 50 and went on to play for the Bengals.
The only NFL player to come out of the closet of course is of is the Polynesian Esera Tuaolo.
The fact that McInally played for the Bengals alone shows a staggering lack of intelligence.
I went to school with a Limey who claimed his ancestor invented the term “nitwit”. It’s generally believed to be derived from the German “nit” (not) + wit, but I of course must apply Occam’s Razor and deduce it refers to the insect.
In the high stakes poker vernacular a nit refers to someone who does not give action. Proper White People do not play multiplayer poker, however; we play heads up to eliminate anti-Anglo collusion from the equation 🙂
Heh, McInally is too busy counting his royalties to hear you:
“Pat McInally conceived the Starting Lineup series of action figures circa 1986, the final year of his career, and pitched the idea to Kenner, a leading producer of toys. They agreed to develop it and the line became a top-seller. Kenner was later sold to Hasbro. Ironically, it took a decade for the creator of the franchise to himself be immortalized. [3] It was discontinued after the 2001 Major League Baseball season, but “SLU’s”, as they are commonly referred to, are prized among many collectors.
After his retirement, the royalties Pat McInally received from Kenner provided income and also allowed him to work in youth sports and that led to the founding of Good Sports For Life, an organization that, according to McInally: “is dedicated to working with partners to improve youth sports by promoting meaningful participation, improved performance, personal growth, and creating positive experiences for the thirty-seven million kids playing sports today.” He writes regular columns on behalf of the organization that appear on NFL.com.”
wp love claiming their ancestors invented terms like “nitwit.”
wp also love applying Occam’s Razor.
Yea, it explains your hostility and hatreds, too. When did you get “outed?”
None of that changes the fact that he played for Cincinasty–maybe the crappiest city in the country. Once a Bungle, always a Bungle.
Not true. I was using my blogger account near the beginning but I stopped.
Except that you are the fake happyjack. I know the real one. And he is me. I am him. We are one.
I also like little boys.
And I aslo like little boys.
I love little boys.
I was one with your mom last night, fake happyjack.
Stealing someone’s name. How original.
I also love sweaty salty balls.
All of this fake posting is ruining this blog.
I know you do. That’s why you’re the fake happyjack(off).
Stealing someones name. How original. I going to lick balls now.
Also, you typed in my URL wrong, you retard. Try again.
Again, wrong URL dip shit.
Actually, I’m the real happyjack. You stole my name way back near the beginning of the comments section.
Why would you say you loved sweaty salty balls if you were the real happyjack?
As the real happyjack, I know that I do not love sweaty salty balls. In fact, if your balls are salty, you should probably go to the doctor.
Thank you for the correction. Now I can procede to impersonate you and at the same time, bring this retarded blog down by destroying the integrity of the comments section.
I agree. Can you please stop visiting the blog then. That is the only solution.
That’s what I’m trying to do, too. So why are you impersonating me? We want the same thing.
Actually, no I can’t. I’m TRYING to ruin this blog.
My expertise in the American Midwest consists of layovers at O’Hare, so I must consult the statistics:
“The racial makeup of the city was 52.97% White, 42.92% Black or African American, 0.21% Native American, 1.55% Asian, 0.04% Pacific Islander, 0.63% from other races, and 1.68% from two or more races. 1.28% of the population were Hispanic or Latino of any race. The top 5 largest ancestries include German (19.8%), Irish (10.4%), English (5.4%), American (4.8%), Italian (3.3%).”
Yikes. However, this does not take into account the suburbs. By some measures Cincinnati may be the whitest metro area in America:
***********
First, we’ll look at the CMSA’s, to see which of the largest American cities are the whitest. Here are the numbers:
1. Cincinnati, Ohio (85.3%, 1.98m)
2. Boston, Massachusetts (85.1%, 5.81m)
3. Portland, Oregon (84.3%, 2.27m)
4. Denver, Colorado (80.6%, 2.58m)
5. Seattle, Washington (79.3%, 3.55m)
6. Cleveland, Ohio (79.0%, 2.95m)
7. San Juan, Puerto Rico (78.2%, 2.45m)
8. Milwaukee, Wisconsin (77.8%, 1.69m)
9. Detroit, Michigan (73.1%, 5.46m)
10. Miami, Florida (70.1%, 3.88m)
“Waitwaitwait,” you’re saying. “Miami? San Juan? White?” This brings up an important point in census data: Hispanics and Latinos are not considered to be a separate race, but rather an “origin,” in effect a common subset of whites and blacks. Therefore, the definition of “white” is a fuzzy one by governmental standards. It is tempting to simply subtract the Hispanic figures from the white figures, but this only serves to make the data even more erroneous, since there’s a Sammy Sosa for every Ricky Martin.
So let’s go down the MSA’s that are more than 95% white, noting their Hispanic and Latino populations alongside their white populations:
1. Altoona, Pennsylvania (97.6%, 0.5%)
2. Dubuque, Iowa (97.1%, 1.2%)
3. Lewiston, Maine (96.8%, 1.0%)
Scranton, Pennsylvania (96.8%, 1.2%)
4. Portsmouth, New Hampshire (96.5%, 1.0%)
5. Johnstown, Pennsylvania (96.3%, 0.8%)
6. Glens Falls, New York (96.2%, 1.5%)
Huntington, West Virginia (96.2%, 0.7%)
Johnson City, Tennessee (96.2%, 0.9%)
7. Eau Claire, Wisconsin (96.0%, 0.8%)
St. Cloud, Minnesota (96.0%, 1.3%) (there ya go, Chris Rock)
8. Portland, Maine (95.8%, 0.9%)
9. Bangor, Maine (95.6%, 0.7%)
Wheeling, West Virginia (95.6%, 0.5%)
10. Bismarck, North Dakota (95.2%, 0.7%)
Burlington, Vermont (95.2%, 1.0%)
A quick glance at these percentages will tell you that these are, by any definition, the whitest metropolitan areas in the United States. Most are fairly small: Scranton is the largest at 650,000, followed by Johnson City at 400,000. Lewiston, Bangor, and Dubuque are among the smallest MSA’s in the country, with populations of less than 100,000.
Incidentally, there are only two MSA’s in the country that are not majority white, and they happen to be big ones: Los Angeles, California and Honolulu, Hawaii.

Which happyjack are you? The real one or the real real one?
Wow, thanks for that pointless assemblage of information.
L.A. is just like Tijuana. It’s a dump city full of Mexicans.
Except in Tijuana they are all legal.
Then we are on the same team. Our goal. The ultimate destruction of this blog.
Agreed. Perhaps two happyjacks are better than one.
I’m the one that you’re not.
Not me.
I know you’re busy with your book deal, but come on, I only started reading this blog regularly because you updated so often. Now, eh, what’s the point of checking it if there’s no new content for days at a time?
Oh. I stand corrected then. Sorry.
Three’s company.
I guess he is trying to figure out how to save his blog since the comments section is being destroyed with impersonators.
I hated that show.
I hate all you happyjacks.
You are just a bunch of jackoffs.
I have also had sex with many prostitutes at this airport.
Most of them were women.
Actually wp love “Three’s Company.” wp love watching homosexual men pretend to be straight pretend to be gay.
The women were all accidents, though.
Not a problem. I was lying anyway. I’m not really the real tornados28.
Eli you didn’t realize the lead guy from REM was gay? Wow. I see that somebody else is in the closet, too.
That is a problem, isn’t it?
Yes, I though they were men but they were just really ugly women. I will look closer the next time I vist the airport.
In fact, it’s probably only a matter of time before someone starts impersonating Christian. Then this blog will fall into total anarchy.
I’m talking fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes, the dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria!
Is nothing sacred?
You forgot one y in the name. Please get it right if you are going to impersonate.
Ooops. I’m not very good at this.
You’re still doing it.
No, that is the solution.
No whoring to report, but I got a shoeshine from a Black Man at O’Hare though. Eye opening experience, that was.
I guess making the cheek-smacking sound when tipped only a dollar on a seven dollar shoeshine might be solid short term strategy, but it does not make me especially eager to transact business with an African American again. You just don’t see that sort of thing in my White community.
Yes you are. Liar!
You’re supposed to use a lower-case _w_.
Good times.
From March 28th 2008 edition of IOL News:
“In the aftermath of his failure to become the president of the SA Rugby Union (Saru), Mike Stofile said the elections at the annual general meeting held on Friday, proved there was no place for black people in SA rugby.
Stofile, the former deputy president of Saru, was the only candidate to oppose Oregan Hoskins for the top post in SA rugby at the elections.
The final voting count was not declared at the AGM – but there was a recount, just to assure all the parties that there had not been any mistakes in the voting process.
“What happened here today, is an indictment of what is happening in our country,” said Stofile. “I am not surprised, not really disappointed. I want you (the media) to see today what is happening. We (rugby people) have got a lot of work to do in this country.
…
“I’ve been saying for four years now there is no place for black people in SA rugby and this is the final nail for black people in this country.
“They (black people) have to wake up and see what needs to be done for them to be accommodated in the structures of rugby in this country.
“Black people are not trusted.”
…
“Rugby people think I’ve done enough, and that’s fair, so I’ll go and do some other business.”
Stofile’s parting shot was the government should intervene in rugby. “I don’t believe rugby should sort out their own problems.”
With Stofile no longer serving on Saru’s hierarchy, it means there are no black Africans occupying any of the top posts in national rugby.
Usually national sports federations have a “gentleman’s agreement” when elections are held to ensure that blacks, coloureds and whites are spread over the top three positions to reflect the demographics of South Africa’s population.
The term “gentleman’s agreement” was mentioned at the time the voting for the deputy and vice-president took place.
However, Hoskins – a coloured attorney from Pietermaritzburg – will have Mark Alexander, another coloured from Gauteng’s Golden Lions as his deputy.
The other key position went to a white person, Rautie Rautenbach of the Falcons who replaces Western Province’s Koos Basson as vice-president.”

I bet. You’re what we bears like to call “stupid.”
‘Stofile wants rugby race war’
Johannesburg – SA Rugby Union president Oregan Hoskins has reacted angrily to racial comments made by Mike Stofile and openly accused him of trying to start a race war in rugby.
Hoskins, who beat Stofile in the election for the presidency held on Friday in Cape Town, was angry at comments that Stofile made to the media shortly after he was defeated in the election.
Stofile told the media that “there is no place for blacks in South African Rugby”. Hoskins told the Afrikaans newspaper Sondag that Stofile was fanning racial hatred.
“I am astounded at the manner in which he has conducted himself,” Hoskins said of Stofile, “He is a hypocrite. On one hand he has no problem in referring to Peter de Villiers as a black person when it suits him, but if he loses the election then its not okay.
“I am black, I was born here in Africa and if I am not black, then am I white?” Hoskins said.
Hoskins was referring to the fact that in the South African racial make-up, he and De Villiers are considered “coloured” and not an ethnic black as Stofile is.
“It is irresponsible to make comments like that,” Hoskins told the newspaper in reference to Stofile’s comments about race.
“If he says things like that, he is only fostering the racial divide and breaking down the harmony that we have tried to build up for years in South African rugby.”

Oh, you’re right.
In addition to my previous comment, I wanted to let everybody know that I like to have sex with dogs.
I liked that show Good Times.
You white humans sure like to have sex with crazy things.
Christian Lander: you sure have inspired an amazing dialog amongst humans (and bears). Well done.
Eh, it was alright. It was no “Sanford and Son,” though. “Here comes the big one.”
Clinton Portis reportedly scored a 9 on his Wonderlic, which even by the standards of the University of Miami is extremely low. Peyton Manning (score: 28) devised his own audible based offensive system before he entered his teen years and he has run his own personal offense at every level including the NFL, which is very rare.
See more scores here:
http://www.jsonline.com/story/index.aspx?id=560665
White power.
Heil Hitler.
I love to put gerbils down my pants.
See? That’s my point. White humans = sex with crazy things. Weird…
Proper White People don’t “heil”, Hitler, Caesar, or otherwise. The proto-Romans (Etruscans) were ethnically Asian and therefore the whole hailing thing is not appropriate for White People.
But I have to admit my own love affair with my dearly departed hamster. Actually, I’m still loving him right now. He’s really stiff, just the way I like my hamsters.
I do heil a cab from time to time. But only if there is a hairy prostitute in it.
Seriously… and the cirque de enfants is going to boo this. (White people love using French phrases and earning extra points for cleverly though clumsily modifying them). Lander and or his handlers should take immediate steps to pull the blog or take constructive steps for monitoring the comments section. Because the site now largely serves the purpose of promoting the forthcoming SWPL Book, a wide range of views and opinions, even those which may seem racially “insensitive” to the politically correct, should be welcome but all comments and replies to comments should bear a threshold limit of relevance to the post topic.
Rules for posting should probably place limits on obscenities, personal insults, threats and crank or disruptive racist rants. The immediate objection will be voiced that Christian permitted everything from the outset and he has no right to change the rules midstream. (I’ve also indulged here in the joy of anarchy.)
The sad fact is that the law of unintended consequences has combined with the law of diminishing returns to turn a once-provocatively funny blog into the theater of the absurd, the silly sound of white noise.
Come Let Us have sex together with gerbils.
I once saw a movie at the Theater of the Absurd.
I think that was the point, CLURT.
Good. My evil plan is starting to work to bring down this blog.
Tornados can be spelled both ways. Either tornadoes or tornados. I already looked it up in the dictionary.
… awesome. I thought everyone was just picking on happyjack. I guess even bears are targets.
Can’t you at least come up with something more creative than a hamster/gay joke, though? I’m a talking bear, for Christ’s sake. There’s gotta be something more substantial to mock me for.
Like, maybe I have a small bear penis or something. Jesus. Use your imagination, kids! If it’s going to be nonsense, at least make it entertaining nonsense.
I poop in the woods.
So, are you the real tornados28, then? Why did you stop using your WordPress account? How can I be sure that you’re the really real original tornados28?
I invented AIDS to destroy the black man.
Actually I invented having sex with monkeys and AIDS was just a lucky byproduct. Now I wear a condom when I have sex with monkeys.
You can tell by my supremely intelligent writing that nobody can emulate.
Sounds to me like you’re not the real one either, then. If you’re the real tornados28, then what’s the name of YOUR blog?
Okay. Excellent example of unimaginative, unfunny repartee (bears also love using French phrases). Thank you for the illustration.
It wasn’t a wordpress account. It was a blogger account.
Excellent.
You’re right. It was a blogger account.
OK. I’m convinced you’re the real tornados28. So, is the real happyjack still here?
The ORIGINAL REAL happyjack?
The thing is though is can’t anyone just copy the URL of the wordpress, blogger accounts or any other website into the URL space when they make a comment?
Oh wow. Yea, you’re totally right. Well, that explains how the fake happyjack was doing it then. That opens a whole other can of worms.
I admit that I was one of the fake happyjacks and I copied his URL. But there certainly were others as well.
I only started my career as an imposter after someone started commenting using tornados28 after I did. I went back and looked and I was the first tornados28.
Looks like clander made a new post, so I guess we’ll never know what the hell really happened here. See you on the flip side, real tornados28.
(and you’re right, it can be spelled tornados or tornadoes).
Sure their’s lots of good white footballers but “all’ the top scorers arent’ white. Didier Drogba and Adebeyor are white? are you nuts? Brazil won 5 times. France once.
please emigrate already. i’m sure NZ anf the OZ would love to accept a whiny bastard like you. SA sure doesn’t.
Dear lord. This man makes great sense. I was going to ask the same thing of you Mr. Lander. These comments ruin your site. They start of funny and then either some racist or a jerk with no sense of humor takes control of the conversation.
I was listening to NPR the other day and I heard a really great analogy.
America’s conversation about race is like a discussion at a dinner table. At first it’s calm and people are hashing things out in a reasonable fashion. Then someone with megaphone shows up and spouts copious amounts of verbal ignorance. At first everyone ignores the person sensing he is an idiot. After awhile the conversation starts to change and people start taking sides either for or against the man with the megaphone and eventually the whole conversation breaks down and nothing is resolved.
People like Louis Farrakhan and Bill O’Reily are the guys with the megaphones and sadly their sympathizers frequent your site. And halt all satire.
Is it acceptable to enjoy rugby if your grandfather played on a championship team in England AND you attend UC Berkeley, which has won 23 of the last 30 collegiate titles? No? Damn, still just a white boy . . .
Rugby is not all white. Maybe in the US, not in the rest of the world, plenty of Islanders play it.
Have a look at the NZ team, the Fijian team, hell, even the Australian team to see the mix.
Plus the sport is a lot better then American Football.
The one and only
You see, people were getting annoyed at the original, or 2nd, or 3rd happyjack’s annoying little jokes that he passed off as original wit, which really were about as creative as “happyjack is the new anonymous”
and just to beat you to it, wp DO love saying stupid things to sound trendy like, “pink is the new black,” or “turquoise is the new chartreuse,” or “vases are the new kittens.”
How post modern of you to deconstruct me with this impersonation. The real CLURT loves women. Gerbils and the real CLURT clash.
I play rugby… and yes I have a ‘retarded looking football’ as my one friend called it, up on my shelf.
Loved that you profiled this. Although Rugby is also very big with Pacific Islanders as someone mentioned, and to a lesser degree some Asian and African countries.
Love this blog, I’m sending it to my Arabic friend right now, he’ll have more ammo to make fun of me about and I will still resort to just calling him a terrorist. *sigh*
Check out mine anytime!
http://blog.myspace.com/verbosebrick
This is hilarious! I am white and I LOVE Rugby…but I am also gay (See #88) which has more to do with my love of Rugby than my whiteness. Same reason though, I do like the jerseys worn during the game. For me it is more about the shorts than the shirt, but you know…whatever.
If you really want something to rant about, check out:
http://www.artgonewrong.blogspot.com
I think you’ll love or love to hate it.
Boo! it was supposed to say #88, not have 8) that face
Hey look, another Tornados28
Also, is it acceptable to have a sexual attraction to that grandfather? Just curious…
Don’t include a link to your MySpace page on this blog. Some of these people are not very nice. I don’t think you would want them to know your MySpace address.
Boo! I love promoting my lame, lame, lame, lame blog. Do us both a favor. Don’t check it out!
http://www.artgonewrong.blogspot.com
I think you’ll hate it. I know I do. Also, I hate myself. With a passion.
Where?
Yeah. The next thing you know, you’ll be posting about how much you love us gerbils.
So True!!! I played rugby in college!
And after the dust settles, only happyjack remains.
With the Stuff White People Like blog officially slain, it’s time for me to move on to more challenging prey. Perhaps I’ll meet some of you on my next target.
Stuff White People Like died on April 17th, 2008. RIP.
Real Rugy Jersey’s have rubber buttons and (Polo) Ralph Lauren Jersey’s are for posers. Also, cutting the sleaves off show that you are tougher than others.
Happyjack. What makes you think you’ve won?
What makes you think I haven’t?
there is no place for Whites in South Africa anymore. I give it 10 years and it’s another Zimbabwe or Detroit.
I’m Israeli and like putting gerbils in my ass.
No, no no….I’m a Jew and I’m the homo!
After having read a few entries on this blog I can’t figure out whether the author is a minority with an axe to grind or simply a failed satirist.
Perhaps the problem is one of execution. The original idea (mined from various memes over the years) is “sorta funny” but this horse has long since had it’s flyblown corpse beaten to atoms.
Perhaps I’m overlooking some other obvious explanations (the author strikes me as a homosexual rejected by his parents at his “coming out” party) for the self-hating nature of the material here – but, in any case, simply saying the same thing over and over like a drooling Asperger’s case is only amusing to the other Asperger’s cases.
Proper White People eschew the very concept of Asperger’s as a laughable attempt by mediocre people to pathologize our unusually high intellect.
Really? You can’t figure it out? His picture is on the blog! The author is a white, liberal male copywriter by the name of Christian Lander. He’s a 29 year old, closeted ass who does ALL of the things on this blog.
Do a google search on “Stuff White People Like” or “Christian Lander” and you can find all kinds of news stories about him and interviews with him.
There’s no axe to grind! This is just failed satire from a pathetic little man!
Pinshot,
I was going to do a quick Google search to see if CLander is white or gay, but I don’t think it actually matters. I think he’s right on target and not at all self-hating. What CLander is doing is pointing out that many of the Earth Day kids of the early 90s who thought that 80s yuppies and Aquanet hairspray were dooming society grew up. They then became their own breed of yuppies with their own artificial, materialistic tendencies.
From what I’ve seen, the simple truth is that many urban liberals, who often come close to achieving orgasm when touting how genuine and down-to-earth they are and how much they love black people and poor people, are actually very exclusive, shallow, bigoted, and just plain “mean.” Pointing this out isn’t self-hating, even if one is white, and it certain isn’t a stale observation. I have seen the lifestyle lampooned here many times in people I’ve met, and it’s only getting worse. This sort of hypocrisy hurts many, and shedding light on it with humor is probably the best way to reverse the trend.
Too bad the author that you love is also one of the exclusive, shallow, bigoted, “mean” people you hate. Sucks to be you, Steve-o.
His picture is on the blog, so you don’t even need to google! Check the “bookdeal” entry. The recycling guy is Christian. He’s one of the Earth Day white kids, fueling his artificial materialistic tendencies with the payday that he’s gotten from a “Stuff White People Like” book.
You’re not reversing the trend, Steve. You’re enabling it. Get a clue.
Rachel,
First of all, I never said I “love” the author, never said I “hated” anyone, and never claimed that *I* was the one reversing anything. Regardless of any book deal, from the tone of the posts, I simply suspect that CLander is actually probably a lot nicer of a guy than people give him credit for and has actually managed to occasionally wear a north face fleece, not become a complete asshole, and live to tell about it.
This website cracks me up! I read this post yesterday morning before leaving for school and then, lster that morning while I was sitting in the library, the uber white school librarian was talking to this other librarian about his horrific shirt (it was so tacky looking). He said he liked it because it felt like a rugby jersey!!!! I stopped typing my paper right then and just keeled over laughing. It was hilarious, to say the least.
I ❤ this website forever.
You’d be wrong, then.
White people also like rugby because it’s got a lot of brown people in it, at least they say so. This is particularly true of women’s rugby, where all of the other exclusive field sports (lacrosse, field hockey) are exclusively white, while rugby is less so. Further, whites like the idea that rugby helped South Africa, New Zealand, and Australia overcome their racial problems through integration of national teams. The reality is less clear, especially as New Zealand often over looks native Native Maori talent in favor of importing cheaper Saomoan and Fijian players and there has yet to be an Aboriginal on the Aussie national team (local Polynesians have also been imported – it helps to have a somewhat colonial presence on New Guinea and other smaller South Pacific islands). Still, this gives whites authentic racial cred – rugby is an exclusive club sport (big white points) that also allows and celebrates non-whites (super white points).
As an academic in grad school who likes to drop references to make myself sounds more intelligent, I could throw in a couple of references to scholarly works of sociology that study rugby related to race, including my own monograph on race and rugby, but alas, I’m only so white.
Mostly brilliant satire combined with marking white as a race makes this blog one of my favs. Whites often are used as the normative category, by which other races are marked as different. By marking what is white, this blog destabilizes white as norm and calls into question values and social capital. Clander has read is Bourdieau (rugby is a serious marker of whiteness in French society)!
You sounds very intelligent indeed, douche bag.
“Clander has read is Bourdieau”–not sure where you’re going to grad school, but I would ask for a refund.
Well Rachel, I am right about one thing, you and I would have a great time in bed.
Especially with a couple of gerbils.
What? I don’t get it.What does eschew mean? Like chewing something?
Gerbil in Pants Dinner Parties forever.
I’m sure that you like to rub your teammates flanks all the time.
Not so much. I prefer furry rodents in my arse personally.
I think you and your gerbils would have a good enough time, ass.
What is it with this site and gerbils?
Good point. You have won. Christian Lander is an ass muncher, anyone.
See, Grad Student Flanker? This is where you originally posted. I hope you’re going to a fake, online grad school. If not, you are REALLY getting ripped off.
The gerbils were my idea, so shut up. I love them.
Why isn’t this list on this list?
Okay. I’ll list the list.
Who?
I HATE EM! THEY STANK!
Yes, there is a class distinction between rugby and soccer. It is not just about the players on the field either. If you see fans at a big game e.g. England v France in Paris there is very little crowd trouble – contrast that with football hooligans and you get the bigger picture. Soccer attracts trouble in Europe ie physical violence in a way that is not true of rugby even though rugby is a more physical contact sport. Soccer fans in Holland, Italy etc are prone to fighting, fascist and racist chants etc – something the promoters of the sport would probably not want to be seen in their target audience – America. Ouch. I do like both sports but would rather attend a rugby match than soccer any time.
Rugby’s nice because it’s like football but I don’t have to embarass myself by being a white guy playing football, and it’s close enough to soccor that I don’t risk looking like one from the “inner city”.
This is a funny blog.
But it should really be titled, “Stuff Protestant American White People of Mixed Western/Northern European Descent (non-Irish or -Mediterranean) Like in Urban and Suburban Places in the U.S.”
And, oh, the perception in other countries is that the Americans play these euro-sports do it because they are no good at the traditionally American sports. Though that is changing with soccer.
American rugby, though….that’s funny
LOL hey faux “That’s Me,” thanks for promoting my blog even more 😉 I’m sorry you hate yourself with a passion, maybe you should talk to someone about that…
But again, thanks for the plug!
wow, the writer couldn’t be more off-base or more offensive. I just retired after playing competitively for 20 years, which has included matches all around the globe including Australia/NZ, Hong Kong, europe, India, and Dubai. While Americans are consumed by money, steroids, bling and commercialization, rugby is the world’s 2nd largest sport behind soccer.
And what’s with the constant “white” comments? Sure, the 6 nations of Europe are primarily angle-saxon, as are the southern hemisphere tri-nations (Australia, NZ & south Africa), but there are a couple of countries that are constantly in the mix. Argentina was a power at the world cup, and others are constantly there (Fiji, Samoa, Tonga, and Japan).
So why the race card? Someone is to quick to criticize what they don’t understand. Rugby is practically a fraternity where there is one common theme. How else can a white guy like myself, travel to Dubai on business and attend the rugby 7’s with cultures from around the world? The Ugandan fans were awesome, the pacific islanders showed the speed against the europeans, & I even jumped in a match with a russian team. That pretty much covers everyone but eskimos.
Maybe you should focus on why American sports drive us to be ADD. You can’t even watch March Madness anymore with commercials every FOUR minutes plus at every timeout…and they, aren’t even paying the players!
In a nutshell, you’re way off base. Rugby is successful because it is the only sport where you beat the living hell outta each other, and then drink beer with them afterwards. It’s a way of life.
White men like it because it’s one of the few sports blacks men haven’t come to own.
I think you should have a separate blog for white women who love black men. We’re not typical white people. We should have a catagory all our own. We rebuff “things white people like,” and if there is a such thing as a white lifestyle, we refuse it! We love black men and fully embrace their way of livin!
Rugby is a sport for thugs played by gentleman.
Rugby like Soccer has a queer tinge to it. Any decent American honkey knows this. Sweaty men, half dressed rubbing all over each other. You can see why latins and europeans like soccer so much.
Any decent White American likes football.
This blog has gotten lame. White people don’t like rugby…only rich liberals.
I have yet to hear of this black rugby player named Jesus who plays for the Italian Lynched team.
Going of topic, fun for IQ’s 8 to 80.
Lacrosse is way whiter than rugby. Maybe white people should like the idea of rugby as well.
Rich liberals like rugby? I thought it was a blue-collared sport for crazy drunkards.
(Very sexy crazy drunkards of course…)
My roommate plays rugby with me and she’s Jewish…
Jewish people like rugby, too.
…except for the fact that there are some pretty competitive women’s teams out there.
Gee…I know lots of white folks and yet I have never heard of this sport. They are keeping secrets.
Errrrm yes, watch Rugby League (different code of rugby) for your full fill of interacial fun. Rugby League is the working mans sport in England, OZ and NZ. Tally-ho my American chums, chin chin and all that!
LOL. Obsurity is our friend!
I’m half-white, and I have zero interest in rugby. I’d have you know, though, that the right kind of white people (the English, Australians, New Zealanders, and the ultra-white White South Africans) love cricket. Time you white folks jumped on the bandwagon.
Somebody forgot about South Africa and this man (Bryan Habana)…
Also the game is popular in Fiji and with the Maoris of New Zealand (Pacific people of colour)
Irish people ARE from the British Isles. The ‘British Isles’ refers the entire group of islands–including Great Britain, Ireland(Northern Ireland and Eire), the Orkneys, Skye, etc.
No — Stout or lager. Rugby players aren’t pretentious
it’s me right? i find the double standard WAY too obvious…. that’s the joke…. right? so i start a site called “what black folk like” or “what asians like”.
and thats uncool!? are you feeling me? why is this site ok?
gasoline on a raging fire!
die you bastards….
I’m from Wales and rugby is our national sport, the population in 99.7% white- so you might be onto something here.
Not sure The Welsh, Irish, Scots and French would like to be called Anglo-saxon?
Maybe Yanks should pretend to like Rugby League? That’s even more obscure and working class.
PS RE: the Football comment (can’t bring myself to call it soccer), I found it funny that Football is viewed as sophisticted in the US, here in the UK it’s about the most unsophisticated pass time that doesn’t involve farm animals.
Keep up the good work, the world needs more of this vital analysis.
OMFG. What the heck? I am Black and I have no problem with with white people!!! I have lots of white friends! What the fuck is your problem? You know people are always talking about white people being racist, but seriously look what you guys are doing.
man i wish these stories were funny. They’re hardly comedic
BYU matches up very well with Cal, but never goes to the national tourney cuz they have it on sunday. I know several Alum with fond memories of thrashing Cal. And the BYU team is dominated by Polynesians – when dealing with Polynesians you need to be an advanced white person and make sure you do not confuse Tongan and Samoan – much death, pain, mayhem and destruction awaits one who makes such a blunder.
And I remember watching a hawaiian school beat the snot (literally) out of a UCLA team when a fight broke out.
Actually that should be that white people like to plumb locos, as in do the plumbing on locomotives.
White people love model railroading of the live steam variety because it reminds them of the authentic days in which their ancestors were still dominant. It also take a lot of money and land to have a model train that people can actually ride. Its vintage, and you can build the steam engines on vintage tools, which are usually also fairly rare.
Less advanced white people use imported mainland chinese machine tools, but slightly better is to use taiwanese tools and note how they are the TRUE heirs to the heritage of china.
Ultimate is named ultimate BECAUSE it is the ultimate white sport. I played intramural ultimate, behold my blinding whiteness.
The whitest thing about it is the lack of referees
they aren’t mormon, any more than the reverend jones was catholic. The FLDS are apostates and have been ex-communicated from the LDS church.
And they aren’t even white – there wasn’t a rugby ball in the whole compound
I was recently in Australia (before “Rugby” appeared on this blog) and I have to admit that I really enjoyed watching some of the rugby matches on Australian TV. If I go there again (good possibility because the company I work for has a large operation in Sydney) I would try and actually go to a rugby match. I might even buy an “authentic” rugby jersey while I’m there. What a good white person I am!
Mr. Sawyer,
You obviously don’t understand the purpose of this website. There for you must be part of the other white people group; the uneducated.
I must apologize for my extreme whiteness, but that ball is actually made by Gilbert which is the first ball to be used in rugby. In fact when William Webb Elliss picked up the ball for the first time and ran with it at the Rugby School in Warwickshire, England in 1823 AD it was in fact a Gilbert ball. William Gilbert had a boot and shoemaking business right down the street from the school and started making balls out of scrap parts for the children to play with. Although the sound of uber latte white is appealing, getting your facts straight is being ultimately white. Thank you and have a good day!
What?
That is right about Rev. Wright, but I live in Tinley and I’ll tell you it is not all white!
I don’t know if this will get anywhere, but Central and South America has hundreds of rugby clubs, are these rants supposed to be observational humor? Because it doesn’t seem that much actual observation has been done.
Be Glorious
Harlequin
I’m with ya there. I was sent the link by a friend who’s usually pretty good about social satire. This stuff is just ‘look, all white people everywhere are totally completely ridiculous is so many interesting but, like totally stupid ways.’ Okay, yeah, that’s high-larious.
I also wonder. If the authors aren’t white then they’re just kinda bitchy. If they are white then they have some self hatred issues to work out. And what exactly are we defining as white anyway. Are the Afrikkan white, or Russians, because those two groups have so very much in common. Is this supposed to be about US racism, if so where does rugby fit in? It’s all over the map.
Suppose you’ve never seen some of those hulking black guys on a rugby field?
Moron.
P.S. Rugby is shit.
Another lame topic that is not so much a white thing as it is an Australian thing…which has what….like 5% black people living there?
Yeah we play it here in the states, but black kids don’t get constant images of rugby heroes flashed on their TV night and day…it’s only hoops, football, and baseball. I’m sure black folk would be great at it if they wanted to play rugby, but they’ve all been impressioned as yutes (youths to whitey) to idolize only the hoop heroes.
This web site is lame and an embarrassment to blacks.
free healthcare!
You should write a blog about how all girls wan to be writers. Do some more research and you will find rugby is played around the world, even by darkies. In fact on of the best players in the world was a darkie. You should blog about how white people try to be cooler than everyone else, even dark white people, but really are just lemmings and usually too stupid and have their heads to far up their own asses to realize how truly full of shit they are. Just tell the the pure truth about almost anything and see how insulted and hurt they are.
I watch rugby all the time. So that means you’re wrong. Ass.
And the problem with college basketball/football is that a lot of black people like watching that too. So those subjects should be on a blog called. “What people like.” Rugby has such an appeal to white people that two countries in Africa somehow manage to field nearly all-white world cup teams.
Bet you didn’t even know there was a rugby world cup. Get off the couch and get some culture.
get your head from out from under a rock man. They moved the national championships to Saturday in 2006 just so BYU can compete. BYU has lost to Cal in the championship game two years in a row. They’re still in the running for this year
This one does not miss the mark. It is dead on!!! If you knew someone who liked Rugby they would be white, just like all their other teammates.
Apparently you’ve never heard of Europe, Australia, or New Zealand. These countries are full of white people who love rugby.
And are you insinuating that football should be on this blog? Turn on the NFL, almost no white people will be playing in the game.
Are you implying that rugby players don’t have parties? Than you my friend are truly ignorant. I would regale you with many stories of great rugby parties had I been sober enough to remember what went on at any of them.
And wow, you can come up with a clever sexual innuendo. Well rugby players do it in the grass for 80 minutes in 15 different positions. We can do that too.
I could also tell you about a store I worked at in chicago…
While Lacrosse is a legit sport, and does probably deserve an article on this blog, Rugby is better. It manages to have better hits without using any of those expensive pads. It seems lacrosse attracts a lot of pretty boys while rugby has more real men.
Rugby isn’t an all white sport, every major international team has non-white players.
But more to the point, this blog is about White Americans and doesn’t really apply to even other English speaking western countries.
another person who just does not get it, stuff white people love arrogance
Lacrosse? Sadly a game invented by Native American East Tribes that were almost all exterminated by white people. Yet a game mostly played by white people these days. Irony?
Um, hate to rain on the parade, but I think you’ve all missed the REAL favorite sport of white people, which is, of course, CRICKET.
However, though I am white, I have yet to get the faintest idea of what that sport involves, other than sticky wickets and funny looking shin guards and a sad lack of serious bodily injury.
But it has to get a lot of white people points for the gin & tonic aspect–or am I wrong (er, to be a bit whiter, make that ‘mistaken’) about the G&Ts going with cricket?
For the record, I didn’t put that emoticon there–somehow it just magically happened.
One my co-player in graduate school died as he was playing with his town-team on sunday.
Bad luck (got knocked down by the ball trying to stop the kick, mind you, IIRC).
Only one anecdote to report, and better so. For statistics, google yourself.
Union rules. Rugby is tough and smart. I’m a white girl and I love rugby.
this is hilarious because i am a white girl who started playing club rugby in college and i LOVE how obscure of a sport it is. wearing a rugby shirt or jersey is a great conversation starter. 😛
In answer to the question what does God hate:
Deuteronomy 12:31
You must not worship the LORD your God in their way, because in worshiping their gods, they do all kinds of detestable things the LORD hates. They even burn their sons and daughters in the fire as sacrifices to their gods.
Psalm 11:5
The LORD examines the righteous, but the wicked and those who love violence his soul hates.
Proverbs 6
16 There are six things the LORD hates,
seven that are detestable to him:
17 haughty eyes,
a lying tongue,
hands that shed innocent blood,
18 a heart that devises wicked schemes,
feet that are quick to rush into evil,
19 a false witness who pours out lies
and a man who stirs up dissension among brothers.
Anyway, Rugby is played by all sorts of “non-white” people – watch a pro game once.
I agree, no one watches Rugby.

So true. White people are overly fond of the ridiculously (and not awfully fun) game of rugby, so much money’s poured into it, it’s ridiculous!
Good post but you forgot a couple things:
A)white guys also like to run into each other ie. slam-dancing/moshing, the pick and roll, American Football. White men lack rythm and compensate by barging into others.
B)Rugby is both rough and preppy. The game is still mostly associated with prep schools and British colonies. You can feel upperclass and tough at the same time! Where else can white people do this?
Christ, you’re still at it with this loathsome shit? There are loads of black rugby players, you ignorant racist.
You don’t really think I’m going to read through all these responses? Well, in France Rugby is serious business. I hate white people like you but rugby guys are hot, wTF?
valid but lax is originally native american
CAUTION: i used stereotypes and generalizations in a joking fashion
I think we are forgetting what the core of white sports are made of and that is: it needs to be expensive enough to weed out minorities. Lets talk about sailing, golf, tennis, polo.
The other sports listed above are mostly dominated by minorities (ie basketball, baseball, soccer, etc) so I don’t see the post as being anti-white or anything of the sort. anecdotes are acceptable. it seems some brash instigator taking things a tad far? So duncan, thank you for making it clear who the real bigot is here…yourself
sri lanka, pakistan, india (most popular sport there?) W.Indies LOTS of non-whites playing cricket.
Didn’t know this one.
http://death-sentences.blogspot.com/
You’ve never been to Australia have you.
every one watches NRL(national rugby leage) here
we love the game.
There’s nothing wrong with that, haha 🙂 I would parallel some Americans’ adoption of rugby as a surrogate sport much like a New Zealander’s love for American basketball/baseball/football, and the need to purchase merchandise to prove this love. 😉
Um… I’m black and I love rugby…. you didn’t happen to see the make-up of the US team in the Rugby World Cup last year, did you.
By the way… some of the greatest players in international rugby aren’t white.
A sample list
Paul Sackey (England)
Brian Habana (South Africa)
Akona N’Dungane (South Africa)
T’ana Umanga (New Zealand)
Sam Tuitupo (New Zealand)
George Gregan (Australia)
Topsy Ojo (England)
Lotte Tuquiri (Australia)
JP Nell (South Africa)
JP Pietersen (South Africa)
Mils Muliaina (New Zealand)
Jason Robinson (England)
Let’s not forget Akona N’dungane, Brian Habana, JP Pietersen, Breyton Paulse et al, while we are at it.
I honestly can’t believe how many people there are who don’t understand dry humor/irony. I mean, seriously? It kind of really scares me.
I am black and I like rugby. I have been to a few expat games in Hong Kong where I live. But outside USA, football (soccer) is the big sport everyone loves.
I Love how you(bear wearing funny hat) thinks this is a waste of time, but you have the more comments on this page than anyone else. Stop wasting our time.
“White Rugby Player” must be from some shit club in the midwest. Probably North Dakota
http://www.chicagodragons.org/
Come on, I have to call you out on this one. Most white people I know don’t have a clue what rubgy is. There isn’t a team named the All Whites , but there is a team named All Blacks. LoL!
Bokkke!!!
Coming from the whitest, most rugby loving area of sydney it facinates me how people overseas view the sport.
a few facts a bout rugby:
there are two types; league and union.
rich people play union, bogans and westies like league.
rugby players are a lot tougher than NFL players. they also have gross cauliflower ears as a direct result of this toughness.
it is true there are lots of black rugby players, they are mostly islanders, they are much better than white players. however, as a rule, only white people watch rugby.
I like your creativity in spelling these players names. How do you figure JP Nel to be black??? I would add Breyton Paulse, Serge Blanco, the Ella brothers, Jerry Collins and Chester Williams to your list. I would take off Sackey, Tuitupou, Ojo and Nel (even if he is the lightest shade of black imaginable, he is very one dimensional).
However, I do agree with your point. In rugby playing nations, Blacks make up a fair portion of the players and spectators.
Yet another sport involving a bunch of sweaty guys bashing into each other over a number on a scoreboard. Rah Rah.
I couldn’t have said it better myself, thank you.
um, hi, this site is about what white people like, not what all people like. if it hurts your feelings that much make your own site. ITS HUMOR DUDE, not absolute truth.
I bet you were the kid left after picking teams that both captains didn’t want.
Yeah, and imagine if in the US we named a team the Allblacks. Jesse Jackson would have all of our (rugby) balls.
America is a nation that thinks that 102 TV channels constitute part of our civil rights. We’re so spoiled that we don’t actually have to use our brains. Thus, dry humor, irony, satire, economics, science, and pretty much anything that involves how the world actually works is lost on us.
hey DUDE if it’s fucking humor then we don’t need your fucking regulation, fuck off. Go watch Gilmour Girls or something.
You’re shit too. If you hate all then why do you need to have total strangers hear the drivel that comes out of your soft, tobacco-stained mouth? Punish us and wipe yourself off the asshole of the Earth that you call a residence.
yeah man. i’m white. i like rugby and japan
well this topic seems to have found its target !
I think most people viewing this site will be sepo’s (don’t worry, like most jokes, they won’t get it). It was nice that you explained that rugby is predominantly a non-white sport, but you probably should have done it a bit slower and double checked to make sure you removed any satire.
Unknown to most sepo’s the there are a whole bunch of countries that enjoy rugby, most of them have a predominantly non-white population. The New Zealand team is called the “All Blacks” for %*#@’s sake. They’re one of the best teams in the world, it would be hard to miss that!
You didn’t just suggest that New Zealand was a predominantly non-white country did you?
I imgine this is super true in a non-rugby crazy country.
Which is the point, yes?
This post is brilliant.
Especially from a different point of view.
The professional jersey’s though you should note are a little less likely for guys to just stroll around town in. =]
Well I play high school rugby and club. It’s completely true this post and no doubt about how football players are little girls who wear pads. The womens club team would make the men in football look like little babies. About the jersey though. I hardly see those sweater type jersey around now. I don’t know how they have it in the European countries. But where i am, they have pro fit jersey, it sticks to u like under armor, truly these jerseys are great. Its nearly impossible to grab someone by the jersey.
Watching the “Haka” (traditional war dance) as performed by the All Blacks (New Zealand) and other teams from Oceania is pretty entertaining. Wish they had something like that in the NFL.
http://www.poeticmotherlover.com
Rugby is fun because it is violent. Real men play rugby!
I’m white yet know nothing about rugby. What a disgrace to my race I am!
It seems that no-one actually from New Zealand has commented here…so i’ll be first.
I’m Maori and have been playing rugby now since I was 5 i’m now 17 and it pisses me off that people who don’t even live in New Zealand say it’s an exclusive club sport.
This maybe true in England, America and even Australia but in New Zealand rugby is a game played by the working class AND the rich honky bastards too.
You see most of the All Blacks now days come from working class rural backgrounds(see Richie McCaw, Piri Weepu, Andrew Hore).
It also further fucks me off when yanks bunch us into English…most of us hate those pommie bastards.
So overall rugby isn’t a private school sport in New Zealand , no it’s a game enjoyed by all people here and also Rugby League is probably a sport most of us love too.
Another thing is that the NZ Maori team is as old as the All Black team.
By the way Maori are the native people who have been here for thousands of years and have struggled through british imperialism and so-called “cultural cleansing” for over 150 years since James Cook landed.
well, of course it’s not entirely true that it’s an all white sport… but since it’s on this blog it’s necessary to exaggerate a bit. this is hillarious to me as a rugby player.
but what I think is spot on is the thing about the jerseys. when we are on tour with my club or in a big tournament we know we must guard our jerseys or else they will be knicked. and I can’t honestley say that nowone in my club has never knicked one.
and the thing about comparing to american football (thoose sissys), if you want a rugby-player to buy you a beer, just say anythin bad about american football.
BTW, I think rugby is the 5th largest teamsport in the world, and the rugby world championship is the 2nd largest singel sport event (after football WC).
This one gives me quite a chuckle…
Just this past weekend I tended bar during a very large Can-Am Rugby tournament that happens up here in the ADK mountains. Teams come from all over the world, but it is indeed a very white crowd. Quite a spectacle it is…lots of drinking, intermingled with basic debauchery, adultery, and general tomfoolery (white people love that word.) Oh yeah, I think they play some rugby as well.
The Maori, haven’t been in NZ for ‘thousands of years’ They arrived around the year 1300, or about 400 years before the Europeans.
I always really liked watching the Hacka, the ony thing that was a shame was that there was never a ‘response’ from the opposing team. What I mean by this is that after the Hacka, if they are playing Engand, there should be some traditional English response, like Morris Dancing or something.
Morris Dancing.
hmmmm. Theres a thing only white people like.
Well it is n’t really white people more like insane white people from the south west of England. It’s certainly the most unmanly thing I’ve ever seen apart from those wierd Bavarian dances that they do in Leiderhosen.
Being a rugger isn’t really about playing the sport, so much as it is an opportunity to be a member of a super exclusive club. When a rugby player in the US meets another US rugby player they each officially and without hesitation induct the other person into the “rugby club.” They are instant friends, because they have rugby in common.
I’m also sure that meeting rugby players from other countries give US rugby players mind orgasms, partly due to their foreign accents and partly because they are considered experts of the sport. If only we were so venerated as tourists in Europe and down under.
I’m sure another poster has commented on this, but alcohol is also a very large part of the white person’s participation in this sport. The main goal (especially for college aged ruggers) is to have the most injuries, the biggest bruises, and the worst hangover come Sunday. Major brownie points for having ridden to the hospital in an ambulance during the game.
LOVED this post.
I play highschool rugby and I would have to agree … I think football [american] is a pansy sport. And anyone that would like to question that, I will totally take you down! I don’t need padding and a helmet to keep me away from the KILLER metal cleats!
ps. Love my Oxford jersey 😛
Yes!!! I love Hockey myself……For the Puerto Rican that I am….
I would play football and rugby as well….
Cannot play soccer or basketball.
Much regards,,
Frank
i suppose black dudes dont wear basketball jerseys…
or caps with teams colours
You could have added another 80s night at the bottom there. But always hilarious.
This may be true with private school dickheads in the states. However in Australia Rugby League is played by the working class & is very popular in the islander and aboriginal communities. Its also the toughest damn game on earth; constant heavy collisions for 80 minutes with no stoppages in play.
I played Rugby in College…Love it…I’m VERY white!

HAHAHA, I’m a femme Brooklyn latina lesbian. I just joined a women’s rugby team. I had no idea that it would be such a conversation piece!
A brilliant post, but you left out a couple of further aspects of being an American liking rugby that makes it something “white people like”–1) to watch the World Cup in the US you must subscribe to expensive satellite channels that nobody knows about, and 2) knowing the history of and debate surrounding the Haka fits in with # 20 “Being an expert on YOUR culture.”
I am glad to see that you used a picture of that greatest university rugby club, Cal Berkeley, to show a rugby player.
I was very upset to miss the Can-Am but I was on a cruise.
This comment was hilarious! I’m just not sure whether it was a joke or was serious…???
I love cycling jerseys.
Because its beautiful colors .
settle down dickhead. rugby league is for low class Australian bogans. No one else in the world gives a hoot about it.
Actually, in Australia I would say Australian Rules is the white persons sport. Johno is right about rugby being popular with islander and aboriginal communities. It’s cricket that “low class Australian bogans” are into! I give you Shane Warne! Dickhead!! (sorry, thought I should keep the theme running) It is still arguable whether Rugby is “tough” or just stupid though.
Rugby is not traditionally played on Saturday mornings. It’s traditionally played on Saturday afternoons, with the best match of the day set for 3 p.m.
this it so true… i am black and love rugby and play on a team…. but the white girls…. they will die for rugby lol
This post is not as accurate for Canadian rugby players/fans. I would say that it applies more to Americans.
PS.
Can’t say that I ever remember having grabbed anyones crotch, or had my own grabbed before. I’ve been bitten, gouged, kicked, stomped etc… Although there is the possibility of having your crotch grabbed in any sport I guess.
Dude, no American in their right mind likes Rugby. I can agree with most of your posts, but I just have to say that most white people definately hate rugby. Mostly because its unamarican (because all white people are amaerican right?). How about “All white people love the SEC football! Go BAMA!
Been reading through list. Found some of it funny and some of it pretty stupid. This one is idiotic. Saying that white rugby fans (side note, I have competed many serious black rugby players from the US, Canada and England) fond of discussing the differences between Rugby and Australian Rules Football is about as stereotypically accurate as saying black people enjoy discussing the difference between fried chicken and sweet potato pie.
Just in case anyone misinterprets that I’ll clarify. Neither statement is in anyway valid (or funny).
Thanks for providing idea about cheerleading. MyCheer.net – Cheerleading Directory for Cheerleading, Cheer, Dance, Supplier and Associations.

Thanks…
I am a white American rugby player of ten years and many of these points are correct. I also played high school football and would argue that football is the more physical and violent game that causes more serious injuries. I lived in Sydney for a year and played some Australian rules football which is also a great game but a common American misconception is that Aussie rules is more violent then rugby, not true. Both games require a marathon runner’s stamina to play at an elite level but rugby has much more frequent contact and results in many more bruises then Aussie rules.
props get their crotches “grabbed” by the locks/2nd rows in the scrum. The 2nd rows reach their hand between the props’ (1st row) legs and grab onto their shorts in the crotch area. I believe that’s what the article references.
can you please tell me why rugby is important to new people? thankyou.
can you please tell me why rugby is important to new zealand people? thankyou.
HA! All of us on the College Ultimate Frisbee team used to make fun of those guys.
Ultimate Frisbee? Those were the kids we asked to vacate our pitch on Tuesdays and Thursdays when I was at university. Rugby is a beautiful sport, next time watch a match with one of the initiated and give it a chance.
How long has Ultimate Frisbee been around? Right… not quite the history rugby has, 1823 come on.
I played American football and rugby in high school and college. I think a lot of white guys like rugby BECAUSE the hit are not as fierce as in American football.
Wusses can’t take it when a 220- to 300-pound man gets up a full head of steam and crashes into them at 40-miles-per-hour. Lights (and teeth) out.
Yeah, they grab nuts in rugby, but that says something else about the men that play the game, don’t you think?
there more things us whiteys like and thats women doing smelly soft shit on our faces…..
David,
I have played both rugby and American football too and I believe the differences are in fact as follows:
Rugby – thug’s game played by gentlemen (sans helmets and padding).
American football – gentleman’s game for thugs
WOW http://utenti.lycos.it/allforandrew/dpgte1.html WOW http://utenti.lycos.it/allforandrew/dpgte2.html WOW http://utenti.lycos.it/allforandrew/dpgte3.html WOW http://utenti.lycos.it/allforandrew/dpgte4.html WOW http://utenti.lycos.it/allforandrew/dpgte5.html
This is the stupidest website I’ve ever seen. It’s not funny… It’s just dumb.
Come to Detroit for your book signing. I want to fight you.
lol I play aussy
i appreciate the attention to detail you have by mentioning my personal favourite sport, Australian Rules Football. although my thoughts about it are prob different to yours im glad you dug deep enough to find out its name at least.
i have never played, never watched it and don’t know how to play.
go bears!
But there are no pads in either AFL or Rugby. OK, well the ones in rugby don’t count considering those in american football.
You forgot Lacrosse
Australian white people also like using ‘Aboriginals’ [sic] over ‘Aborigines’ – Aboriginal is an adjective and adding an s to it makes it a noun, though this is incorrect and almost always a ploy to avoid describing native blacks without a word that rhymes with monkeys or which sounds like a word that may have been used before the 90’s.
Arent bears dangerous ? anyways, always look like YOU’RE dead if you encounter one
the detroit comment made my night.
The ugliest party I ever attended in university was joint hosted by a rugby team and a field hockey team.
I left before the elephant dance started.
I attended a Rugy party in germany while stationed thier, only time I ever drank out of a shoe..dirty shoe…with the exception of a ice hockey party..now those are truly enjoyable..GO Badger Hockey…
Sure. NZers love rugby because it is one of a very small handful of sports we are very good at. NZ is a country of just 4 million but we have won the rugby world cup numerous times thanks to our national obsession with the game. Almost all NZ males will have been in rugby teams at one time or another, with many playing throughout their schooling years. National pride is tied up with how well the All Blacks are doing. We are a nation as obsessed with the sport as the UK is with soccer (football).
We are also very good at cricket, and our ladies are very good at hockey and netball. We are useless at American sports such as baseball and American football, as well as basketball. We enjoy being good at sports that few nations play, as it gives us a shot at being the best!
We were also quite good at sailing, being an entirely coastal nation, but syndicates such as Oracle bought the use of our best sailors and consequently we are no longer world champions at this.
I hope that helps:)
I went to a rugby high school in Australia for a couple years. The rugby players were mostly total douche-holes but they were the apple of the eye of the faculty. Somehow apparently faculty even managed to pull strings and get them off charges when some rugby doucheholes killed a pedestrian while speeding at night without a drivers licence in an unroadworthy car. Apart from all that though the game is kinda fun. As for pads, that must mean mixed martial arts fighters are pussies for wearing gloves. Yeah that makes sense, white people.
My high school didn’t have a rugby team. I guess we weren’t white enough. Give me football or hockey any day! Though soccer rocks!
This is clearly true, evident by the existence of an entire store devoted to Rugby-esque wear.
http://www.rugby.com/
It can be integrated into every aspect of a white person’s life with this clothing brand, designed by one of the favorite designers of all white people, Ralph Lauren. There is even the option to “make your own” so that your Ralph Lauren Rugby shirt will be different from all of your friends’ Ralph Lauren Rugby shirts.
Ha ha I play rugby and I love it!
“NZ is a country of just 4 million but we have won the rugby world cup numerous times thanks to our national obsession with the game.”
Numerous times? You have won the Rugby World Cup once! ONCE! And it was more than twenty years ago… The only teams to have won the RWC more than once are Australia and South Africa.
Year – Winner / Runner Up
1987 – New Zealand / France
1991 – Australia / England
1995 – South Africa / New Zealand
1999 – Australia / France
2003 – England / Australia
2007 – South Africa / England
The notable thing about New Zealand’s rugby team is that you are the dog’s bollocks during friendlies and qualifiers, but often just suck them when there is all to play for in the big tournaments.
Being English is often the other way round of course.
“We enjoy being good at sports that few nations play, as it gives us a shot at being the best!”
You are confusing yourselves with the Americans, their teams are the ‘world champions’ of sports nobody else plays unless they are being funny.
oh I love me some rugby… hahaha
I think connecting rugby to American white people is absurd! I think rugby is unknown to white Americans just as much it is to African Americans.
Yeah, but if you know enough people in the demographic he’s referring to, you’ll see it’s true: they like it because it’s perceived as European, weird/unique, somewhat macho but sophisticated. If you’re of Anglo Saxon background, it’s even more important.
Far from being an obscure sport, Rugby is the biggest team sport in the world after football ( that’s the real kind not the one played here) Around 140 counties, take part in the qualification for the world cup, which is held every four years. The Last being in 07.
FYI, Canada and the US have qualified for every world cup since the event began in 1987.
Get your facts organized before you start babbling 🙂
are white americans obsessed with european stuff?its funny because its quite the opposite here,well i can only speak for ireland and to a certain extent britain. white middle class people here love american fashion/music/obama(sigh).its funny when you meet american students studying abroad here and reading this website I have witnessed 90% of this stuff. When will we have a book/website called, what black people like?
I’ve played rugby and enjoyed the guilty pleasure of drinking large quantities of microbrew after the game. It was fun, so deal.
nz national rugby team – the all blacks…does this throw a spanner in the works?
Eh? Rugby is a sport loved by a lot of people in big industrial cities. Is this site American?
Eh? Rugby is a sport loved by a lot of people in big industrial cities. Its hardly the preserve of an affected elite. Is this site American?
I watched my first Rugby game. The All Blacks were playing. I was so disappointed. There wasn’t a black guy amongst ’em. A few who looked like they were from surfing movies but no blacks. Then I watched the Redskins. They didn’t look very red …

I have never met a white person who told me they play rugby or even like watching rugby. I don’t think I’ve ever met anybody who said that, actually.
yes it is american and thus no one here plays it except really really white people. The same type that play lacrosse and sail. only theres even less of them.
Rugby is an awesome sport! I am only 18 and went to high school in colorado where i played rugby for most of my time there. I had the best time of my life. Rugby is by far my favorite sport. And no, not only white people play it and i have met very few people who even know what a rugby ball looks like let alone have them in their house. I have three just in my room and everyone asks me what it is unless they know i play. This is definitely a wrong assumption.
Rugby Union is ghey. Rugby League is the real game, except for that Roberts idiot a few years ago.
Proof of Rugby Unions gheyness; the French love it and the Saffas top man is called Percy. As for that Pommy Wilkinson, nothing more needs to be said. Pity about Percy, Saffas are generally pretty good people.
PaulH, you never saw a black guy in the All Blacks? Are you serious? when did you watch them? in the 30’s?
If you’ve actually watched the all blacks you will find that the vast majority of them are black.
Infact, 9 out of the starting 15 are quite obviously “black” interms of New Zealanders.
Rugby shirts *do* look good.
so New zealand, tonga and fiji hate rugby.. should have known..
Ok, Just because YOU dont like rugby, doesn’t mean that the world doesn’t. Rugby is just behind soccer in world sports and football actually spawned from a modified form of rugby. watch the world cup, its actually pretty awesome.
Rugby is not limited to whites. that is only the case in the US.
take a look at some teams like the All Blacks and Tonga for some darker players
I play college rugby in the us, and i see lots of different races on our team and others. I wouldn’t have guessed playing rugby to be especially white, because all the rugby players i know get excited about getting trashed on natty light and beating the hell out of people, not really farmer’s markets. the part about ball grabbing is true though. you got to protect your boys at the bottom of a ruck. and by boys i mean testicles.
I think this is like the soccer/football – it only applies to the US, europeans, aussies, kiwis, et al all heart rugby legitimately; it’s popular, not edgy
I just got into this site and I think it is hilarious. It is even more hilarious that so few people actually get the joke even after reading several posts. This rugby message board is full of examples, but let me just point out the obvious.
The post does not say that only white people like or play rugby. This is clearly not true and not the point. It is saying that white people (American white people) think it’s cool to be interested in something that is not as widely popular as let’s say baseball. Excerpt from the post below:
“In fact, it is even less popular than soccer which gives a white person that all important edge in the contest to see who likes the most obscure sport.”
It also goes on to say that the uniform is the main reason that white people like the sport, but obviously this is for comedy and the fact remains that the main reason is that white people like to try and be unique.
In fact the whole point of this website/book is that it points out that white people try to differentiate themselves in almost anyway possible to appear cool, intelligent, or more interesting. That’s the whole point.
Hope those of you that may actually be interested in some of these things can find the humor in the thousands of people who fabricate interests for these very reasons.
By the way, I think I am guilty of #101 “Being Offended” because I wrote this post. Better stop here.
Wow…this is so true. I belong to the part who play in an intramural league. The ball grabbing, bashing of football players, and love of the jerseys is dead on.
I just got into the game and it’s so much tougher than football. I loved it from the first minute I started.
this is stupid. coming from someone who has played football and rugby and soccer… football is tougher than rugby because rugby has rules protecting players from brutal hits that occur in football. aka no tackleing when the man is in the air, you have to wrap up when you tackle, and you can’t drive the persons head into the ground in a tackle. football barely has any “dangerous tackle rules” and therefore is tougher and results in more injuries and concussions. onto more important issues. major teams do not wear “thick shirts instead of jerseys.” all the major clubs and international teams have legit jerseys like any other sport. learn about what your talking about before you racially profile me and tell me what i like and think.
Any mention of rugby that reaches American eyes is a good thing. It was an extreme sport before there were “extreme sports,” and is the sport from which all other worthwhile tackle football sports evolved.
Monty Python’s ‘Meaning of Life’ (1983) the Rugby Match had profound impact on white peoples love for rugby in the US for the last 25+ years. White people also like to use words like: scrum, maul, knock-on and standoff. Rubber buttons rule!
Learn your facts about socer fool. It is the number 1 played recreational sport in North America (PS Hockey wishes) and b its not a white sport……………………………………… SO if your view in this matter is wrong your acticle is wrong too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
spell-check next time.
Rugby is tougher because players are in motion the majority of play. There are only time outs when there is and injury or the ball goes out of bounds. Certainly the impacts are much more brutal in football, but the idea in rugby is to avoid getting hit and advance the ball forward with your team mates. A rugby match with two good well matched clubs is a thing of beauty with fluid movement that continues uninterupted. Football plays rarely last more than ten seconds.
I agree with you Mike, what a shocking and ignorant article. I can only imagine the hardships you’ve suffered from being racially profiled. I vote that we start a petition to take down this hateful website.
I also say you read #99. Grammar is something we pink-skinned people take pride in.
It should also be mentioned that rugby is often associated with something else White People Like– Ivy League.
You forgot to mention that soccer if mentioned to a rugby player will be laughed at as a half sport played by wogs and girls, and that Rugby is the second most played sport in the world behind soccer. In addition the USA has in fact won 2 Olympic gold medals for the sport, and is most likely the sport played in heaven.
You have to get out a little more
I’m definitely super white, I know the kid in the rugby picture…I made out with him in high school
plus about 95% of the other things are true about me too.
I’m a vegetarian volunteering in Pakistan where I post on my travel blog, have promised to learn Urdu but made no effort, eat hummus, wear new balance shoes, scarves and vests. (plus I’m really nervous about posting this and having people correct my grammar)
Don’t forget “hooker”
What the hell is Ruby… Must be Football For Wussys….
Get it right Fella Football is Americas Game! Just turn on the television!
Don’t forget to mention that few white people drink more than rugby players. Rugby parties are a great way for them to get supremely drunk and/or violent while differentiating themselves from the wrong kind of white people (those football-playing jocks who play a prominent role in their unhappy memories of high school).
it’s american football but without all the pussyboy body armour.
and also, you play handegg, not football.
your feet are involved with the ball very little and the ball is EGG SHAPED!! this is why the rest of the world calls soccer “football”.
I played rugby in college because all the hot Aussie/Kiwi/South African guys I knew from working at summer camp played it. It gives one MARVELOUS cred. Also marvelous internal bleeding. I never went to the rugby parties to drink the massive amounts of booze and jump off the roof while nude because I was always too tired after the games for some odd reason (tight-head prop, yo. If you knew rugby, you’d understand.)
I chalk it up to a bizarre Southern sense of Anglophilia and my general self-destructiveness during college.
But the jerseys did rock. And those knee-high socks! Tra-la-la!
“Football for wussies”? You are definitely retarded.
Rugby is similiar to American football, but much more violent. And they don’t stop to rest every 5 minutes.
Or wear any padding or helmets.
Actually its nothing like football. Football requires strategy and is the ultimate team sport. If one player misses their block it’s all over. Not to mention when you wear the shoulder pads and the helmet (and thats pretty much it, it’s not like a suit of armor) you are going to hit much, MUCH harder because your not afraid of injuring yourself.
Handegg huh? I think I smell some /sp/ trolls
Really again this site misses major, American Football shits on Rugby; bigger hits, bigger plays, actual strategy. No one in America likes Rugby unless by white people you mean europeans.
Clint Eastwood, Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon are currently shooting a movie in South Africa about Mandela and the 1995 Rugby World Cup. South Africa won it in 1995 and 2007. The movie is expected to be released around Dec 2009.
Rugby uniforms aren’t like that anymore – to should really have done your research, it’s like 20 years out-dated.
And yes, I do have a good sense of humour. This just isn’t funny
Oh any by the way – one of the best countries in the world at rugby are New Zealand, a lot of people on this team are black, idiot.
Rugby is more difficult than soccer and the people who play aren’t just after the money. They’re real men.
And Mike? Coming from someone who also plays rugby and football (soccer) and someone who is a sports physio. I can say that rugby is by far more vicious. We get soccer players who’ve twisted their ankle, sprained their knee etc. Rugby players come in with broken collar bones, neck injuries, arms pulled out of their sockets etc. I don’t if you heard bout the Irish captain brian o’driscoll who was lifted upside down and thrown into the ground in one match. He’s lucky he didn’t die.
This article is ignorant
Football is the game for ‘wussys’. Football/soccer is not an amercan game – they’re shit at it. American football is an American game obviously because they’re the only people who play it. I know what American football is and I’m not from there and yet you don’t know what rugby is. Ignorant.
And by the way? We can’t all turn on the televsion – we won’t all see the same thing, because unlike what you may think Americans aren’t the only people who exist and post comments.
And no one in Europe OR the rest of the world likes American football.
Rugby requires more strategy. The people playing it are really brave because unlike American Football they don’t wear the body armour. It’s not just about getting some really big guy to run into people.
It’s not just europeans who like rugby – New Zealand and Australia iare one of the best rugby countries in the world and they’re nowhere near Europe. Though you probably didn’t know that……
One of the ultimate team sports actually is hockey it’s pretty much exactly like football just a lot harder. It’s far faster and more skillfull because you have a stick. It’s just not as widely played because people consider it a ‘girls’ sport. And even though these girls are a lot more skillful than football players they don’t get any credit. The world really is unfair
But the ultimate number 1 team sport is Hurling. It’s the fastest game in the world AND the most skillful (and those are facts) it’s the national sport in Ireland and is played with a hurley stick and a little ball you can hit, balance, throw, kick the ball and when tackling someone many people get seriously injured because they get whacked with the stick. Hurling players don’t wear padding like american footballers because they’re tough.
They go in strong, despite the lack of armor/padding (whatever way you want to look at it) they’re never afraid of injury.
So what was someone saying about American footballers? The cheerleaders on the side-line have more talent
Or this article is hi-larious, and go tell the mauri that they’re black, see what they say-
you take this waaaaaaaaaaaay too seriously, but a great excerpt from a great book-
Hmmmm yeah. Amen to this. This is very funny! I’m this white guy for sure!
And, yeah, lived in Wellington for two years, you call a Maori a black and he will eat your heart.
How this article turned into a ‘what sport is best’ I will never know but here’s my thoughts on the matter regarding the football codes.
Soccer is the only sport which has legitimate claim for the title ‘football,’ due to its origins and the fact the you actually use your feet to contact the ball, go figure hey, though despite this fact, in my heart it will never be football. Soccer is a great game though it frustrates the hell out of me due to its lack of physicality. The high skill levels and precision required to play at an elite probably surpass the other codes, it also helps if you can act. Ultimately soccer is for the guys who really just don’t want to get hurt or play a sport with much brutality.
NFL, I’m an Aussie so this will never be football to me! I did gain a healthy respect for the game when in the states and can almost understand why people like it so much. For me it was the continual stops and the over structured play that I found most frustrating to watch. I’m sure from a players perspective constant delays in play are fantastic as you get a chance to get your breath, also two teams? There’s something very wrong with that. Strategy? Probably more set moves then rugby though you would expect that when you have a tea party to debrief every 5 minutes. American Football, would be fair to say is unrivalled in its ‘big hit’ department, let’s face it though, that’s all some guys are on the field for, so you do see an array of bone crunching hits, though the antics after these plays make me cringe and wish they hadn’t put the hit on. Not going into the pads debate too much, of course it’s soft, come on.
Leaving us with the game they play in heaven. A game where speed, power and skill are crucial to playing at a good level. Though having played for 6 years now you definitely see a fair share of guys who are quite deficient in all categories who still enjoy playing for the strong social culture that rugby has, which yes, often includes copious amounts of beverages post game, especially in the lower grades. As dito to getting your heart eaten by a Maori if you call have black lol. Rugby is by no means the perfect game, rules are always being changed to try and speed up the game and to encourage a more expansive ‘southern hemisphere’ style of play which the brits struggle immensely with. Rugby at worst can be a boring affair with too many scrums, dropped balls and forward orientated style of play. At best though it is sheer poetry, with slick ball movement and free running enabled by the bigger guys having dominated the opposition and getting over the advantage line. Most of all though rugby is a game of extremes where any one of 15 blokes can score, through rolling mauls or blistering speed out wide.
Side note to ball grabbing? My boys have never been in jeopardy, sure your get the odd eye gouge or scars across your back from overzealous props looking for a ball lost in a ruck but never ball grabbing, American must have a different take on that I feel, unless it was in reference to ‘crouch binding’ in a scrum, where a second rower, like myself, binds onto the shorts of his prop????? You get better drive, it’s not gay, I promise
Now back to this finance assignment that due 🙂
and it now time for you to read article”being offended”
As an Australia-based Bears fan, I found your blog on google and read a few of your other Bears posts.
I just added you to my Google News Reader. Keep up the good work. Look forward to reading more from you in the future.
pretty much spot on mate(for americans that is). not the scarf bit though, rugby players and supporters on the whole do not wear scarves. unless your over 50
So – is it cooler to like Rugby League, because that’s even more obscure than Rugby Union?
Or is it uncool to like Rugby League because the Ivy League schools don’t play Rugby League?
Rugby League is an Australian thing, which makes it pretty obscure. Blue collar Australians play Rugby League. They have this thing called “State of Origin” – which is when two teams of really pumped Australians beat each other into hamburger meat. So it’s obscure – but brutal.
But Australians also play Australian Rules Football – which is even more obscure than Rugby League. It’s played on a big oval field – much bigger than a football field – so you can’t get much more obscure.
I’m confused now.
What about field hockey? White people like that – it’s got the fashion item, the Ivy League connection and the obscurity. Who the f**k actually watches field hockey?
Or polo? Field hockey with horses. And English Royalty.
Pretty much spot on; although you forgot to mention that anyone who lives outside of the USA thinks that Rugby is a way less gay version of American “Football”.
How about how much white people love hockey?
I am American and barely anyone I ever talk to knows Rugby at all. AND all my brit buddies are genuinely shocked that I even know what it is. I don’t know the rules for American Football whatsoever and all my American buddies are shocked by that. I blame it on my upbringing. However, I have never met a football player as big as a the rugby players I met from Australia. SO either I am cool or I am a total dork. I am most definitely white and on the wrong continent for sports.
Ha ha! this is so awesome. as an indigenous person (Maori) from New Zealand i was fascinated with this analysis of rugby in the US context. Of course its our ‘national’ game and soccer and ‘grid-iron’ are generally relegated to one channel (ESPN). Interesting enough recent trends in rugby here has seen a general ‘browning’ of the sport with many of the best players being non-white (Maori or from many of the other islands in the Pacific). Not withstanding white people are concerned enough about this to write articles in magazines and film documentaries about it and what it means for “where the sport is going?” we are also seeing many more white children being encouraged into soccer. appropriate societal resource likely to follow.
this is true. over 50 and living in the south somewhere where its antarctic-cold in winter.
This site is kickass, but I’d like to say, I like rugby because it gives me a legal way to kick the shit out of people. The whole “crotch grabbing, uniform wearing, austrailian wanna be” BS doesn’t even play into it.
I think those are the “wrong kind of white people.”
I’m having difficulty deciding if this is article topic is justifiable. I think ultimate frisbee could have held it’s own. Personally I know very few people who play rugby, although it’s not entirely unheard of. My school has a rugby club, I think, and my neighborhood is without a doubt upper-middle class. However I can say that I know the American soccer scene very, very well (DC United season tickets, might I mention), and I’m just not gettin’ the scarf thing. Jerseys are simply more appealing and ubiquitous.
Scarf is only an AFL (aussie rules) thing.. not a Union or League trend. and wearing the scarf only heightens one sense of white-ness.
I think that americans enjoy the rugby-white-ivy league thing because of its associations with being upper class. On recent travels to the states (such a white way to start a sentence) talking to people from all over they all seemed to appreciate how tough us rugby players are etc and how they all know someone who went to a certain ivy league school that had a rugby club etc or they watched a rugby match.. blah blah blah wank.
I know that this is a US based site, and how much white americans LOVE rugby, but please explain to me.. as a nation that seems pretty hooked on sports and being the best. why americans are SHIT at rugby? and only really good at sports americans only play.. with the exceptions of golf, swimming and tennis.
Haha Rugby… What a great sport its the game they play in heaven and it is a great game! Lots of white guys play but when you come across an islander or maori it is even whiter for you to get out of thier way!
Actually, female Rugby supporters do wear scarfs. It should be noted though that these generally come out when the Rugby World Cup is on.
The majority of the time Rugby is solely the domain of upper-class white people who’s fathers and father’s fathers used to play Rugby at Grammar school, but every four years when the World Cup is on, all white people must pretend that they understand and enjoy Rugby.
This list is hilarious! As an Australian reading this, it is comical to read the white American take on the social advantages of having an opinion on Rugby. Who would have guessed ….
Most interesting is the social convergance across race, nationality and class into a single socio-economic band – if I undertand the author’s definition of ‘white’ correctly. I fit squarely in the target demographic, and despite being on the other side of the planet can tick off too many of these ‘things’ to name. Indeed, it appears I have much more in common with a Mac using, bicycle riding, coffee drinking rugby fan in San Fransisco than I do with many of my co-nationals.
Do we have a ‘Capital City’? How about a flag or a Constitution..?? 😉
I will never look at a rugby game in the same way again!
Hmm …. time for a decaf, fairtrade, soy latte!
Come on now. Rugby is totally only for white people. haha
Everyone? NSW and QLD are only two states mate.
Funny, I thought League was a Northern England thing
I wonder if will include the All Blacks getting poisoned before the final by the South African waitress…
We’re pretty good a t soccer too even though it’s not an American sport. In fact we’re better at soccer than you Aussies and we dominate in basketball. FYI baseball is not “a sport only Americans play”. And let’s not forget that we are also good at track and field, and gymnastics.
Nigga, you gay!
Nigga, rugby is so gay. The knee high socks (read stalkings) and the scrum where they exchange phone numbers and then the pussy “tackles”. It’s basically an excuse for big burly men to hug other men, but we see through the facade. I’ve seen the attendance at rugby games and they were abysmal. And that “body armour” makes us pussy? Lol, reasoning fail. We wear “armour” because if we didn’t someone would die every game. The fact that you guys do NOT wear “armour” is proof that the “tackles” are pussy. Rugby is like an old twinkie, hard on the outside, but soft and creamie on the inside.
If you want to be even whiter then namecheck the Aussie-rules-ish game of marngrook that predates white settlement (sorry, invasion) of Australia. Two thumbs up for that. I’m not going to explain marngrook to you because I want to keep the power.
I WANT A MILLION DOLLARS!!! Can one million RICH WHITE PEOPLE send me one dollar apiece, puh-lease????
I don’t want money from any Asians, or Blacks or Hispanics. You guys NEED your money. I only want one dollar apiece from RICH WHITE PEOPLE, who only WASTE their money on things like Rugby shirts.
Waste it on me instead. Thanks so much! (First person who comments “You ARE a waste.” is a rotten egg. You thought it. I know you did. Stop lying. See? I knew it.)

Rugby is awesome and black folks play it too. As far as hispanic folks, Argentina actually has one of the best international teams in the world.
But yeah rugby is the best.
its mad all Yanks dont love rugby its the posh persons game and if Yanks are one thing its that they sound posh – black, white or asian – I mean yis dont even like football, the working mans game, so rugby is made for you!!
Knowledge
Being a “non-white” Maori living in New Zealand, home of the All-Blacks… Who plays rugby constantly, I wonder if this shit applies to me. God damn, white Americans, go die.
yeah you really have got this 1 wrong, u know what the main problem is for the top dog up at the dizzy heights of running this site is right?………………You’re focusing it purely on americans, if you apply this anywhere else then most of it isnt valid because over on pond we’re not stupid or racist, unlike most americans regardless of your colour.
This is written by a Canadian and aimed at Americans. Of course it doesn’t really apply to people on the other side of the pond. You are just as stupid and racist, you (well, not you specifically) do a better job of hiding it than Americans.
Does it matter? It’s shit anywhere it’s played!
Thanks for using the internet and software system we have created to post your comment. Oh by the way it is COLOR, any stupid and racist american would tell you that.
Rugby isn’t popular in America at all, but we still like to say its cool. Most of us play soccer and to toughen up we play a rough, violent game at practice called Jungle ball which reminds us of rugby.
We think rugby comes from England and English people are way cooler than us. lol
FUck you guys
im a white american
i love rugby not because its rare in america or because the jerseys are sweatshirts because if youve looked lately.. they are not.
ive been playing for years
i love the strategy, the skill, the contact, and the comraderie of the sport
i work out and practice all the time
everyday i do something for the sport
i respect all of you outside america and believe me i know that this place is full of assholes.. cause i gotta play with them
just dont hold all of us in the same opinion because there are some of us who are die hard fans and players
we live for the sport
From what I know, rugby is like football but you throw the ball upwards or higher than American football…and where the ball lies, the players keep running to the ball. I don’t wanna get confused with rugby played in Europe (the UK, Ireland or France) with the AFL of Australia or New Zealand. Rugby is like the ancestor of fumble football we have in the USA, but never knew why soccer never picked up in the US. +
I write for http://StuffRichPeopleLove.com and rugby emerged as an upper class sport that was appropriate for rich kids while ‘football’ or soccer was reserve for the masses. In North America it is for kids that can’t make the football team or need a training vehicle / anger management outlet when football ends
Naw dude your really off on rugby. We pitch the ball bag to others on our team, the ball pretty much never goes higher than a football unless its a far pitch or a kick. I’m not sure on the other games, but you might have rugby confused with AFL.
Can’t argue with the rich person part, because most of the clubs I have seen are filled with rich people, but that might just be because they are all in schools from rich areas. We never had many football players come out to rugby. Most talked about how football was tougher, but would never come play with us. People don’t do well in rugby if they use it as an anger management outlet because rugby, while strength is needed, but finesse, strategy, and endurance is more important.
hahaha, i’m from NZ and Rugby is our national sport, basically you arn’t cool if you don’t like Rugby, though it’s common to hear people say, “nah, I’m too white” when asked if you play. It amuses me that Rugby is on the things that white people like where over here we have mostly pasific islander and maori people playing, oh and cocky white boys. but still. for all the rest of us really white people with our indie music and vintage sweaters we happily say “Rugby?eww no”
little boys, little boys, little boys…
put alil love in your heart

little boys, little boys, little boys…so many little boys, I hope that my ass can take all these little boys. If not, I hope their well hung doggies do me right…..pulp fiction style

i would have liked to see South Africa mentioned as we are the world champs and tri nation champs.
and every race plays rugby in South Africa, half of our national team is not white.
Ag man kaffir,
Watch your bak about rugby, next time you come to J-berg look me up and I’ll show you how we get real bossies.
That’s right. But, most importantly, how do you afrikaners keep the whites and blacks separate whilst upon the pitch? The giant white line down the middle of the locker room has worked well thus far, eh?
Mr Voloshin. What is with this pathetic racist comment? “you afrikaners”??? Why should we have to keep blacks and whites separate? We’re all equal. Accept it.
I’m from New Zealand and our national sport is rugby. We usually have more people of colour playing in the All Blacks than white people. We’ve even got a Maori All Blacks side too. Though that seems to be full of more white people who are token Maori(One/Thirty Second still counts as being of Maori decent)
I fucking hate rugby, it’s boring as hell. Maybe because I was dragged around to every fucking game my brother played when I was little. And cause I never played it, I wasn’t really that interesting to my dad.
Parental resentments on the list right?
I love my folks though.
Marcus, we stopped using fractions to define people back in the eighties bro. Or are you a fraction of pakeha? Having a Maori ancestor counts as Maori descent mate and that amounts to 78,000 kiwis who don’t identify as Maori but could and might but for ideas like yours…kia ora.i love my folks too…
You might even get more kudos for knowing there are TWO types of Rugby Rugby Union and Rugby League.
In the UK Rugby Union is played by the upper / middle classes* (it used to be an amateur game ie the players not supposed to be paid – yeah right). It is generally slower and more violent, it used to consist of 30 men fighting in a big heap – called a ruck. But they have tried to speed it up lately.
Rugby League is played by working class men in the North of England. It is faster as they aren’t allowed to roll around with each other. But the shirts are made of nylon and start at size XXXXXXXL – so would be suitable for your average American.
* Note Rugby Union in Wales is played by working class people as there are no posh people in Wales.
I fucking hate you Marcus.. for being a kiwi and hating rugby… I think that you aren’t really a kiwi.
Thanks for using the English language into make that comment, via the world-wide web, invented by Tim Berners-Lee (English) using your computer, invented by Alan Turing (English). Some people say it was Charles Babbage, but then he was English too. And “colour” does indeed have a “U” in it.
These bright chaps aside, England is positively brimming with racists and stupid people. Try googling “chav” and “BNP” if you want to get rid of that lingering sense of cultural inferiority.
You thick racist, now feck off back to your cave and hang yourself. Don’t comment on a country that you have never lived in.
Pretty poor attempt at speak Afrikaans.
Close the door when you get your coat will ya!
I think someone took your balls in their hands playing rugby and you got caught out, you’re not a man after all.
It’s already been said, but in New Zealand and Australia it’s the opposite. Especially in NZ, where we have so many Maori and Islander rugby players that all the cool white people aren’t allowed to like rugby anymore.
booranga
Heh. Rugby does what it always does then, even in places like America (where one always thought it was virtually unknown): cause people in the comments section to theoretically much each others ears off. You thought Mike Tyson was tough because he viewed his opponents ears as tea-time snack? He should try that in a scrum pile, with someone’s boots raking his skull, while someone else cops a feel in all that warmth and intimacy.
Rugby in SA = a lot of neandarthals rushing around after a weirdly shaped ball as an excuse to feel each other up. All of them graduates of boys schools, so not surprising really.
or maybe i’m just bitter cos no one came to the girls’ school matches.
erm… this isn’t the appropriate response. tell him about your proud imperialism or how you rule the world. ANYTHING but the nature of american spelling, cos the rest of the english speaking world just views it as lazy (why not just keep the “U”, is it too much effort? serious question this, i’ve always wanted to know)
hahaha, this is so true. i love rugby.
This is hilarious and so true! Haha!! Go rugby!
You must be an Australian.
All kinds of whitefolks seems to like Rugby. Check out the webbsite below for some non-pc shirts
http://www.rhodesiawassuper.com/
Rugby is epic. I am white. But you forgot to note the differences between rugby union and rugby league.
exactly…. they never go that detailed do they??? it’s Bullsh*t
I’ll take some of that
obscure sport? where is this blog from, America?
A true standard in comedy blogging.
Another great site is http://www.SomethingYouShouldRead.com
Rugby is HUGE in Africa…
This is a satire based website people, it’s not meant to be an accurate picture of society. Read tounge in cheek and get over it.
All Blacks being poisoned? Ha ha ha, now that is funny.
So still communicating with those Aliens you saw the other day?
“You know, American footballers are bigger…” A rugby player would never say such a thing.
Rugby players are both bigger AND tougher than American Footballers, not to mention more skillful, more technically proficient, more…
Still love the NFL though.
Funny, I’m in Africa right now, and i dont see any Rugby being played. In South Africa, Rugby is the sport of white people. Soccer is the sport of blacks.
As I realize that nearly every single article is a dead-on representation of white people, being a rugby player for several years I would like to offer some inside information. Jerseys are truly what makes Rugby grand. It’s versatility from the pitch to the bar to class to anywhere makes you universally noticed as either a rugby player or supported, unless of course you are confused for a soccer person which enrages all ruggers. Your time abroad definately makes you feel entitled and more cultured because you are now a supporter of a team over seas despite the fact that you are unfamiliar with all but one or two players on the squad. I, however, never studied abroad, and based on other articles I obviously regret that decision, but I did go on a rugby tour to England. A tour is simply a glorified vacation in which you and a full rugby team goes and drinks themselves retarded with the origional purpose of playing foreign competition. The trip ultimately ends up with no one interested in playing because of massive hangovers and wanting to start drinking again. My last addition to this page is about rugby players claiming to be tougher than football players. Admittedly I once, and other new ruggers, said that since we don’t wear pads rugby players are naturally tougher athletes. This stems from the curiosity of the game and being new to it and because since you participate you are the coolest person ever. After a few seasons under your belt you have no issue reversing that statement because even though can be a top level rugger in the US and play division 1 college or men’s super league, you come to realize the best rugby player in America would still be beaten mercilessly by the likes of a Ray Lewis or outrun by Reggie Bush. That’s just the way it is.
Hope this helps
braod generalisations are dead on representations of white people?
ok.
I would be incredibly impressed if an American, or even a Pom, knew about Australian Rules (Rugby is not so popular in Melbourne) – get studying!
this guy makes a comparison to weekend rugby bums to professional football players stating that theough big in egos nfl boys would crush and run over the rugby guys. In the comparison he made maybe so. IN nfl versus international rugby……NOT A CHANCE!! Ive played both rugby and american football (not at pro or international level) I love the games and follow both. No, nfl players are not faster or tougher than the best in rugby. International (pro) rugby players are in WAY better shape than nfl athletes. A person needs to be in shape to play either and the better in shape they are in the better they will perform. However, to play 80 minutes of rugby one has to be in way better shape than to play 4 quarters of football. International rugby players are in tremendous physical shape to play a Non-stop high intensity rugby match for 80 minutes. I love nfl But none of them boys could hold former New Zealand All Black’s Jonah Lomu’s jock strap. 6’5″ 260 lbs 100 METRES in 10.8 seconds
I see it was mentioned that there is a difference between rugby league and rugby union. Just its appearance in the comments is enough to attest to the knowledge of rugby and you more “worldliness.”
While being into rugby or even playing rugby (sometimes just one game) is a definite way to build your arsenal of “White Friends,” a great way to go from Rugby fan to Rugby Efficienado is to know the differences between Rugby Union and League. While most white people themselves don’t even know the difference, gathering information from Wikipedia or indepth research methods(tending to include one word and google) they are never affraid to pull this difference out in conversation as to ensure their status as most worldly.
If you ever find yourself being questioned on your expertise on rugby, while you have not played much more than on a college intermural team, just throw out – “While I enjoy rugby union, it is no where as physical as rugby league.” Feel free to switch the versions of rugby as much as you want, chances are the person you are telling this to does not know the difference either.
This will become evident from any response to this post.
White people in Australia, New Zealend, England and South Africa are crazy about Rugby
Chris is exactly right, though in the UK it is common to have long debates over which is the better of the two games, usually it is deemed to be league due to its much fater pace, and the the game being in play for a much larger percentage of the game.
League also allows you to shoulder charge, as is deemed much more agressive, so always prefer league, it is the purest form, Union was a breakaway group from the north (RIgby is a predominantly southern game in the UK, so League is the more popular form).
Coming from New Zealand, where Rugby Union is the national sport, and we are the current Rugby League world champions, I am well positioned to clarify a few points. Firstly, in response to the last post, League was actually the breakaway group. It developed as the Northern teams in the UK wanted to pay their players (Union was an amatuer game right up until 1995). Rugby Union was the purest form of the game, invented when a school boy picked up the ball and ran with it during a game of football.
Although players are able to shoulder charge in League, Rugby Union is seen as the more physical of the two sports, due to the rules surrounding what happens when a player is tackled. In League, once a tackle is complete, the players stop and “play the ball”, however in Rugby, there are rucks and mauls where both teams compete for the ball. Also in Rugby the scrums are much more heavily contested, and a focus of the game. Bear in mind, that in neither code do players wear pads or helmets, making them much more agressive and physical than NFL.
Having played both sports, I can tell you Rugby players are LESS aggressive than American football players (until the drinking–I’m referring to on the pitch). I think its the knowledge the NFL’ers have that they won’t be injured near as much if they leave their feet, lead with their heads, dive, etc.
We just need a new word to replace ‘aggressive’ in this discussion!
I think Rugby is more of a “white person thing” since its roots are European/white. However, I think in terms of America, Rugby has sort of turned into a tough white person activity–therefore this post is 100% on.
Also take a look at http://SomethingYouShouldRead.com
FYI, in New Zealand and most of the Polynesian islands of the Pacific where rugby is the national sport, there are actually more people of color that play the game than white people.
These people are of Polynesian rather than African descent, as there are hardly any Africans in the region relative to other parts of the world.
In South Africa it has also changed from a white person’s game to everyone’s game following South Africa’s historic World Cup win when they hosted it, and Nelson Mandela’s canny promotion of the tournament as a way to bridge racial divides.
In fact, you could argue that in any country in the Southern Hemisphere where rugby is played, it is as much a game for people of color as whites.
Yeah this is so true Mitchell, but the past and current regard of the NZRFU towards Maori rugby for instance and practices of control over island-born polynesian players in terms of who they can represent at age group, club and international levels show that although men of colour are a good proportion of players, the administrative and strategic power of rugby in the southern hemisphere is still squarely with whites.
There is no doubt that South Africa’s world cup win changed the appeal of the game there to many non-whites. You could argue though that it added a social/cultural dimension to the legislative and policy changes that sought to enforce the inclusion of non-whites in a post-apartheid environment. And this was not without complaint of rugby analysts there and in other southern hemisphere countries including NZ as to how the forced quota of non-whites was lowering the quality of teams and South African rugby generally. If the current standing of South African teams in the super 14 is anything to go by, these concerns were unfounded. Lets see if the argument rears its head again in 2011.
Coming from South Africa, and playing rugby my entire life i can tell you that the game is thouroughly bred in the school system, a system that is mostly dominated by white afrikaans schools. Although the sport shows no signs whatsoever of slowing it’s growth the inclusion of black players is still slow, yet moving non the less, and most of the guys selected to play porvincially or nationally are bloody good, and true thourough bred players, but they probably went to a well off white high school, the transformation of the sport in most of South Africa’s rural areas in fairly non-existant at the moment, especially with the world cup soccer on the horizon. How ever, were the Blue Bulls (provincial and Super 14 rugby side) ever to play a yank team, like the Dallas Cowboys in a game of rugby, the game would be over in ten minutes, because the americans would not know what the hell had hit them.
Rugby Union will always prevail over rugby league, due to the greater physicallity and tactics that have to be employed in the various situations in the game, instead of tackle, leave him alone, pass the ball. It really is a contact form of touch rugby. South Africa has a tiny institution for league, but i have yet to see a game televised, advertised or actually played anywhere. I think we just don’t care about. There seems to be a far bigger international stage for rugby union anyway.
Go the ALL BLACKS!!!
FYI – Maori Wahine from New Zealand and this site is crack up material! HAHAHAHA
I think it’s hilarious that the photo is a Cal player.
actually league was the breakaway faction from the north. if you ask a northerner he will likly prefer league and a southerner or scotsman, irishman or welshman will all say union. source myself played union for my hometown in scotland for several years
lol is this how Americans perceive Rugby? In England it’s more like Football = overpayed boys; Rugby = determned men. And in fooball you support whichever team you want (this changes very often, depending on leagues ect.) but with Rugby you have to support your home town even if they suck.
What “European” White People Like #1:
looking down on Americans in as many ways as possible
if you like this blog, check out http://justsomepetpeeves.wordpress.com!!
Most Americans, including myself, get into football the same way Aussie’s or Kiwi’s might get into rugby at a young age. Not everyone can play D1 college football though, so come time for college Club Rugby is a godsend. You get as much out of it as you want, if you want to be sadsack on the pitch so you can get wasted at the social, have at it. But like many of my close friends, playing Rugby as much as possible, and becoming better at it is essential to our life force. Whether we make a dime playing till our deaths or not, it’s infectious. I haven’t met one guy who has openly preferred football after playing serious rugby. Admittedly the mystery of Rugby is a catch 22, everyone assumes I must be a tough guy for playing, but widespread ignorance of the sport is otherwise detrimental. I asked my fellow firefighters once if they had heard of any local FD vs Cop rugby, and they quickly denounced that concept as being “gay”, despite the fact they openly admitted they never had seen rugby before *sigh*. One admission I will make, is that being able to casually wear rugby jerseys is awesome, and I do enjoy wearing tiny shorts for teh ladies. Pads don’t make you a pussy, but playing a rough contact sport dressed like a soccer player is objectively awesome to me.
ah but rugby is liked by the wrong sort of white people, pacific island people, maori people and australian aboriginal people. – in australia and new zealand that is
Very True, the jerseys are very farmer like 😉
Simon
@ infurler – Oh so wrong… it depends on the TYPE of Rugby… what’s missing here is that there are two types – that played by the Right Sort of People (i.e. Union) and that played by the others (i.e. League).
Rugby Union (also known as the game they play in heaven) used to be amateur, allowing even more barriers to entry and creating an even more obscure sport… alas in this age of professional sport you the wrong type of White Person will sometimes cross over from League to Union.
It’s all far more complex than it should be of course 🙂
Cheerio,
BC
Unless of course you live in Australia or New Zealand, in which case rugby of any sort is played and watched by the worse sort of jerk-offs you can imagine.
Er, you mean the overwhelming majority population of both countries? Painting with a pretty broad brush there fella.
Rugby League is the greatest sport on earth
James you are 100% correct.
Ruck Me
Maul Me
Make Me Scrum
For other countries where rugby is popular it works in reverse. For instance in australian states
