Depois dos jogos sempre tem uma festinha pras jogadoras. O time da casa organiza a festa e faz uma janta (na verdade uns petiscos). Chamamos essas festas de "social". No social os times apresentam as jogadoras novas, fazer suas tradicoes, cantam musicas e trocam ideia com outras jogadoras das outras universidades. Temos que ter cuidado no entanto... Pensava eu, que estava fazendo varias amizades com as meninas de outros time... Segundo a Lorae elas so queriam "sair pra namorar". Mais da metade das meninas no Rugby sao lesbicas...

There is always a little party after the games. The team hosting the tournament feeds the other teams. We call this party a "social". At the social teams introduce their new players, their traditions, sing Rugby songs and talk to players from other teams. We must be careful though. I thought that I was making lots of friends at the social but according to Lorae (our capitan), the girls wanted to got out "to date". More than half of the Rugby girls are lesbians....

Todo time de Rugby tem suas tradicoes... No nosso time, toda jogadora que marca pontos pela primeira vez (como se fosse um Gol, mas nao tem nada a ve com futebol), essa jogadora tem que beber cerveja. A cerveja eh colocada na chuteira da menina que tem o maior pe do time (e geralmente o mais fedido). A Capita pede a chuteira emprestada - da Georgie - e enche de cerveja ate nao caber mais. Ai as meninas que marcaram pontos pela primeira vez bebem. AInda sim, colocamos um copo debaixo da boca da menina caso ela derrame um pouco de cerveja. A menina tem que beber a chuteira inteira e o copo tambem. Enquanto isso o resto do time canta pra ela. Chamamos essa ceremonia de "dose de chuteira" (Dose como se fosse uma dose de cachaca). A menina que bebe eh chamada de "bebedora de chuteiras". Nessa foto, a Lisa ta mandando a ver... Eu nao sei se eu quero marcar pontos tao cedo!! hahaha
Every Rugby team has some traditions... Our team makes the players who scored points for the first time drink beer. The captain put beer on somebody's boots (usually the girl who has the biggest and the smelliest boots) until it is all the way full. Georgie let us use her boots. The girls then drink all the beer while the rest of the team sings for her. In this picture Lisa is doing the "Boot shot". The girl has to drink all the beer at once. A cup is placed below her mouth in case she spills beer. They need to drink whatever fell in the cup too. I am not sure if I really want to score!

A univerisdade de San DIego tem como tradicao fazer as meninas que marcaram pontos pela primeira vez se vestirem como prostitutas e cantar uma musica que elas fizeram... Em Rugby them uma posicao que eh chamada de "HOOKER" em ingles e isso quer dizer prostituta.
The University of San Diego makes their players who scored points for the first time to dress as as prostitutes and sing a song that they made. In Rugby there is a position called "HOOKER"

Novo jogador de Futebol - New soccer player

Quando eu conheci o Kuba, ele nao gostava de futebol. Ele nao gostava muito de jogar e muito menos de assistir. Com os anos passando ele comecou a gostar mais (afinal todo Brasileiro TEM que gostar de futebol). Ano passado ele assistiu a Eurocopa comigo na Polonia e torcia ate. Assistiu Copa America tambem e esse ano assistiu aos jogos do Brasil que passaram aqui. Enfim... semana passada o Kuba decidiu juntar-se ao time de futebol da HP onde ele trabalha. Eles jogam 3 vezes por semana na hora do almoco. Semana passada o Kuba comprou chuteira, caneleira, meias e tudo mais... Depois dizem que as pessoas nao mudam.... hehehe

When I met Kuba he did not like soccer. He did not really like playing and watching a soccer match could not be more tedious to him. As the years went by he started liking it a little more (every "Brazilian wanna be" MUST like soccer). Last year he watched the EuroCUP with me in Poland and also South American Cup. He even cheered! This year he watched some of the Brazilian games with me. It was a great surprise to me when Kuba decided to join the soccer team at HP where he works. They play 3 times a week during lunch time. Last week he bought soccer cleats, socks and everything...
