Support your local Hooker

[rimfired]

My only child will be graduating from Kings College in May.
Only took him 6 years but he has a 4.0 GPA, Deans list,
Elementary and Special Education. And he's a GREAT son. He's a Rugger. Plays Rugby.
He's a hooker. I'm a proud dad! Support your local Hooker!

Congrats, Rimfired. Surely our children are our greatest achievement. (Or maybe some of us just get lucky!)

Bet that boy eats hearty!

 

[Old 44 Guy]

Fine looking boy you have Rim. Good American.You should be proud.

Way to go, both Dad and Son! Take pride, they don't raise themselves!

I've always gone out of my way to support our local hookers, for which many have expressed their gratitude...

You've got a good reason to be proud. Not a follower of Rugby,
but just what does the Hooker do?

The hooker anchors the scrum. He's the middle man.

You know what they say about Rugby players: They have leather balls. Congrats to you and your Son. Keep him close. Keep shootin' and check 6

Yes Mike, Union. Most all the regional teams are, even the colleges.

From the looks of him, he's not gonna have any trouble maintaining order in the classroom.

There are many "bumper sticker" Rugby quotes.
My fav is this post name.
"Rugy players eat their dead" is my second.
