Rugby is a beastly game played by gentlemen; soccer is a gentleman's game played by beasts; football is a beastly game played by beasts.

Bio: Bud gives new meaning to “fleet” on the wing. Unfortunately, the next word that comes to mind is “enema”. A late-comer to rugby, Bud played his first game in 1994 with the Hartford Hobos. Bud is the Coach of the Connecticut Jammers Wheelchair Rugby Club, a twin team with the Grey. Bud enjoys his time with the Jammers because (1) he is the tallest guy on the squad, (2) the Jammers all look up to him and (3) they have promised him his own wheelchair at the conclusion of his playing career with the Grey.
