Default Well done Ireland. Congrats

Well it took them 111 years of Test Rugby but Ireland just beat the All Blacks in Chicago. 40-29. As a Kiwi it sucks but Ireland deserved the win well and truly. Nice work fellas.

What's an All Blacks...? Sound really racist. I think it was a trigger word, I'm feeling a micro aggression....quick, I need a safe place.



Or just congrats to Ireland.

Wow congrats Ireland. That's coming from a man with kiwi blood in his veins and a silver leaf tattooed on my skin.

I work with an Irishman and a Kiwi and I'm not sure if they are still speaking to each other. Lol.

Smile I was Ireland not N. Ireland right?

I visited N. Ireland once and when the guy running the B&B found out I was an old (very old) rugby player I was treated like royalty. I'm glad they won one, they sure love the game, I guess we all do. Thanks for the post Beating the Kiwis once in 111 years is a pretty good record in my mind.
