Three words: women’s beach rugby

I didn’t make that up. It’s a thing.

As I’ve noted many times, if you want to be sure of a great spectator sport, make sure your viewing choice begins with “women’s beach …” You think I’m kidding?

Perhaps not.

Here’s my hypothetical quandary: I have no DVR available, and my options are the Super Bowl and the women’s beach Chutes and Ladders league – La Jolla, California on the road against the national team from Thailand. Easy choice. Tom Brady again? No. Phucket.

  1. Next stop: Olympics.
    You’re right, it works with anything. Women’s beach croquet, women’s beach hammer throw, women’s beach equestrian events, women’s beach jai alai…

    1. Beach jai-alai would be tricky, given that the sport requires three walls hard enough to withstand the constant, unrelenting impact of a rock-hard ball thrown at twice the speed of Nolan Ryan’s fastball.

      (Not to mention how difficult it would be to handle this dangerous object bouncing out of the sand.)

      That said, I am willing to watch a group of nearly-naked women attempt to play this game. Some of them would die horrible deaths, but in a good cause.
