The Superbowl is the biggest event in all sports in the USA. It is the final game of the NFL season, the 2015-2016 season was ended with a game against the North Carolina Panthers vs. the Denver Broncos. The Broncos had an unexpected win over the Panthers since the Panthers had one of the best season records in NFL history. Peyton Manning ended his career with a Superbowl win and the first player to win the Superbowl with two separate teams! This is was all great if you are interested in a sport nowadays mostly played for outrageous salaries.
The Rugby World Cup is the biggest sport event in many countries, being aired in Africa, the Americas, Australia, Europe and parts of Asia. It is an event for both men and women leagues played in countries all over the world. To have the event held in your country is a huge honor and brings in a great amount of revenue (reaching up to a billion dollars). How the Rugby World Cup (RWC) works is the best 20 teams in the world, men and women leagues, are seeded into separate brackets where they face off son and death style. There is a tremendous amount of blood, sweat and tears broadcasted during this usual 2-3 day event. The most resent champions are the New Zealand All Blacks winning the 2015 season. The All Blacks are viewed as the main predator in all of rugby worldwide, having the most dedicated fans and ruthless players. New Zealand lives, breaths, and eats rugby since their men and women's team won the RWC last year and have the overall most wins in the RWC tournaments with 50+. Rugby is a sport played to prove a country's true strength and dedication to their country, and when compared to the Superbowl truly shows how little Americans care for such a great sport. We are separated by an ocean, but it should not mean that the sport should be cut off from the view of our people. Watch this upcoming season to see the U.S.A. Eagles on their rising to the elite eight and defending the Olympic gold medal. Maybe we will be fortunate enough to have the Rugby World Cup held in our country this year.
