    I don’t know enough about current day USA Rugby board to have much opinion, other than having real years of experience in sport makes me optimistic.

    Now what was the name of that guy who penned the open letter when USA Rugby was going through a terrible phase of hiring people who didn’t know anything about rugby nor about running a sports league…

    Edit: it was Tony Ridnell. He’s got some interesting posts on his blog there.
