This could work. I worked with the Tatums when the Outlaws (USFL) were in Tulsa. They have the money and the connections to make this happen.

Wonder how many teams will play in 2006 and where.

Will this seven aside rugby be the indoor version that the W.A.R. (World Arena League) was attempting?

God, I hope not. Being tackled on the time on carpet on a concrete base doesn't sound too fun.

I don't know how this can work...it may be TOO high scoring. Scores are pretty high and they play sevens with 7-10 halves instead of the conventional 40 minute halves.

I really wished they brought in the real rugby (rugby union, not that rugby league bastardization), but we'll see how this goes.
