			<description><![CDATA[An obviously biased article. Not one single quote from anyone on the Mother Lode side. Not one single statistic from the Mother Lode side. Not one mention of any of the Mother Lode girls names or what they did. One has to wonder if Jackie Finlin isn't somehow related to or otherwise affiliated with the Bishop O'Dowd girls rugby team and isn't more interested in BOD propoganda than reporting fairly.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Having played the game of rugby for over forty-five years throughout many countries, and having also coached the game for may years I feel qualified to make some comments of my own in this regard. I am shocked by the lack of rugby spirit shown in many of the comments following this article and I am also amazed as to how one-sided, and disrespectful the article was. To put the record straight, and hopefully get the attention of many people here that obviously never played the game and have no idea regarding what the game is really about. Fortunately, I have been witnessed to the wonderful courage, tenacity, skill and incredible rugby spirit demonstrated by the Mother Lode Woman's Team. These young women not only play the game with an incredible zest and love for rugby, they also embrace the friendship and wonderful social aspects of a sport that is more a way of life than game.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This article is so drenched in bias, it's almost unprofesional. Not a single quote or comment from Mother Lode, who by the way has starting players who are in junior high. We've beaten a team this year by over 90 points. We're undefeated in our league. Yeah we lost to Fullerton at a tournament, but that was in the very beginning of the season when half of our team had never even seen the game before. BOD is undoubtedly a good team, but we are ranked higher and deserve that rank. We've worked hard for it.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I find it quite ironic that no matter i we win or not we are put out to be the bad guy. Obviously we deserve a spot in nationals and we have proved time and time again that we deserve that spot. To all of you who call us push overs, why? Just because we play clean and classy rugby doesn't mean you have to hate on us. The game on Sunday was a well played game from both sides and Motherlode fought hard to come out on top and we deserved to be recognized for that]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Motherlode, btw, applied to nationals, as a team ranked 7th in the nation, and were denied. Underrespected. Feared by the competition, who keeps throwing up road blocks to actually playing them. (ask Kent if they wanted to play them last year... pfft.) Now they're ranked even higher. Because they DESERVE to be there. And they deserve to get an article about them for once. Jesus, Rugby Mag... can we get a freakin' break?!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[BOD has a good team, but they lost fair and square. Mother Lode is obviously the BETTER team here, and they deserve some positive recognition. Why is this article all about recognizing the LOSING team? Doesn't make sense to me.. Also, 510 rugger they are not a bunch of push overs.... just because they are the better team and they have been beating everyone all season doesn't mean they are a bunch of push overs. That team has some tremendously talented athletes, and therefore deserves positive recognition in general, but especially over BOD. BOD if you want that championship title, maybe you should train harder and win it..]]></description>
