the popular posts should have a drop down box with a choice of time frames, 1 days, 3 days, because 7 days is too long. The story that is #1 may have had no new posts for 2-3 days yet is still #1 because of a flurry of comments 6-7…

dano2002 I disagree with that, Rugby is a worldwide sport, you have named 5 central American nations in your post above, thats not worldwide.

A sevens tournament is all over in two days and requiring only one stadium. Perfect for the Olympics. Anyone of a dozen teams is a medal…

Very critical on here today aren't we all?, we don't know the circumstances so why get sanctimonious and jump to conclusions? 6 years old and 4 years old, these aren't babies and if playing together don't necessarily need 100% supervision, I sure didn't get it when I was that age…
