Hockey: The official sport of Canadians, Chaos Dwarves, and Madmen. But I repeat myself.
Rugby is not unlike hockey, really, both are games that the majority Americans (roughly 95% of those living south of Toledo, OH), for the most part, do not comprehend in any fashion. It's okay though, those of who do get rugby and/or hockey often do not get their obsession with American Football.
Both hockey and rugby involve a great deal more physical play than American Football (or even worse, Basketball), as both involve getting an object from Point A to Point B whilst a bunch of rough other guys try to get said object from you to Point C. A nice cheery mix of Capture The Flag, Keep-AWay, and Big Ball Of Violence ensues.
Once upon a time, I actually sketched out an adaptation of Blood Bowl into 40K Hockey. Space Marines on ice skates, hex grid rinks, Terminator Goalies, and a referee with a shotgun. Good times.
