Week of 10/01/06

Well the last and best summer 7's tournament is now in books. And I'm putting my vote in for player of the week as none other then CHAZ. Yes Charlie Coffee folks. Charlie is the truest form of rookie. He may lack some of the “finesse” aspects of the game, true his bail out passes may leave you in the hospital. And when he attempts a tackle you are reminded of a dirty Spanish bull fighter. O-lay. His hands while soft and supple usually do not catch an open field pass. But CHAZ has heart. He is never discouraged. He gets knocked down and will get up and run to get back in the play. When he does have the ball he is best described as a bull in a china shop. Pure, raging power. So if you are ever lucky enough to have a beer with CHAZ raise your glass and salute him. But if you ever play a game of rugby with him as a team mate, pray to God that his passes will not land you in the morgue. 

Thats whys he's called the Mortician.

Things You didn't know about Chaz

• He once out smoked Bobby Brown even though he had jet lag.
• Charlie has yet to play a game of rugby and have someone ruck over him.
• Johhny Depp followed Chaz around for three months to get inspiration for the movie BLOW
• He once threw a skip nine pass to avoid running out of bounds.
• Once in a game Charlie passed the ball to a ref to avoid contact, the ref died.
• When you call Chazz, do it from a pay phone so you house doesn't get raided.
• Charlie once tackled a guy and in the try line, the key word is ONCE.
• Charlie knows whats on Cable TV channel 1-99 at any given moment. Its true!
• He is also the only player in USA Rugby history that is allowed to have unlimited subs.
