Houston’s rugby pioneers ready for a second round

(Houston Chronicle)

Two Aussies, two Brits and one American walk into a bar on Westheimer.

“Today’s a cheat day, right?” one of the Aussies says.

Endorsing the local way of life, the American replies, “Every day’s a cheat day.”

They are brawny rugby men of the Houston SaberCats, and when they saw the wellspring of draft beers and fatty treasures, they weighed the consequences of carb-overloading 72 hours before kicking off the franchise’s second season Saturday against Austin Elite in Round Rock.
