Contrary to what some would have us believe, no. It is no more left.
After receiving a drubbing to have only speculated that the Rugby World Cup drew perhaps the line for 45 days as what the world of rugby can be as likely as a table Night New Zealand - New risk-taking because of the issue raised by the editor of Slate and that I started with the cowardice of the one you made a pass in the back: Is rugby Right?
Looking like Ben ... and especially do not boot into touch!
The burning question arose from the assertion of another contributor to Slate, ulcerated reading an article of a special envoy of the BBC in New Zealand which was not gone dead hand on her blog. "This is proof that rugby is a sport right," says my colleague from Slate also returned after plating.
Lent this text, it is true, at least to smile as he was shocked and a bit snobbish. Extracts from this lyrical titled "beds Insider":
"Rugby is an elite sport. Of the heart. The nobility of soul. Old-fashioned values, more Cyrano de Bergerac - his freedom, his panache, his generosity - that Octave Parango and all these modern icons, hateful incarnations of cynicism and bling-bling. Rugby loses to accept the first came to his banquet. A prostitute bait barge with its single head hairy gondola. "Pleasing everyone is to please anyone," Sacha Guitry had understood ... "
Or further:
"The low ceiling fans of football as a medal exhibit the universality of their sport, sneer at the small number of countries followers of rugby. Let them know once and for all that it is our pride not to be accessible to first come through our rules so complex. Obviously football is universal. There is no more simplistic, with its single most stupid rule to assimilate that of offside when the rugby requires time and intelligence to be tamed. But after that, what a privilege! "
Indeed, they are clearly on the right lines as they equate to an elite rugby after a nobility that would reject the first Chabal came (too popular to be honest) and did not mix, or do not want to compromise with the common people who in any case does not understand anything and it would look with all his top with a sort of sovereign contempt.
The white knight against the bumpkins footballFor some supporters of rugby, there is, indeed, still this idea a little retrograde and patronizing that rugby players form a gentry or aristocracy of white knights face, for example, those bumpkins of soccer players who have all the defects of the earth . That rugby players are the singers of a royal "epic" (LOL lyrical formula often repeated over time by generations of colleagues) when the players would now only rough uncultivated able one day to mount the barricades Knysna and a bus for fun to make their ridiculous little May 68 in South Africa.
This is a somewhat "extreme" to consider the rugby even if we know that the rugby union, sport imported, is historically linked to the aristocracy and the bourgeoisie in Britain. For the "rightward" and a little exaggeration, one can also note that it is popular with business leaders-normal, it is practiced in high schools as opposed to football. One can also note that goes well with golf for many years. Many rugby players are golfers, right sport if any, and what are the two sports in which Societe Generale has set his sights on sponsorship.
This kinship rugby golf is also found for decades in the newspaper where both Team sports were treated regularly by the same heads of sections and the same feathers as if they were blood brothers (blue).
The myth of the valuesAfter Denis Lalanne, a brilliant chronicler of rugby and golf (and tennis), Pierre-Michel Bonnot has taken up the torch of this double cover.
In a very good article, published last year in L'Equipe Magazine, Laurent Telo, specialist rugby, had dismantled the legend of rugby heroic, chivalrous and untouchable in a paper entitled "Rugby, the ball of values" and in which he cut to pieces the myth to highlight the mythology related to a sport much more noble than other disciplines.
Pierre Villepreux, coach who was part of the framework of the XV of France, in particular liked to say that "rugby will never be a professor of moral values because it will never be stronger than human nature and that they do not preserve anything. "Bénézech Laurent, a former Blue, it evoked the memory of his side's tragic murder by his wife of Marc Cécillon. "My first reaction was to tell me that these so-called values that have kept Mark's alcoholism. An entire city, rather than tell him to stop drinking, tapped him on the shoulder and handed him a tour. "
In summary, rugby and his most zealous admirers would not virtuous to give lessons to anyone. The courage, camaraderie, solidarity, team spirit, sharing, among the values assigned to the sport certainly difficult (than football), did not deserve to be the exclusive turf. The rugby union would also have its weaknesses, its dark side and little acts of cowardice which would fall on earth and to be more of people than some believe. And this is so that the cursor would move toward the left.
The southwest crucible rugby and radical socialismThis would also be logical at least geographically as the Southwest, the crucible of radical socialism and rugby, has remained through the time of election an oasis from the left. Historically, Toulouse, the capital of rugby, has nearly always had the heart to the left-that is where the PS even likes to finish his campaign-Landes and never gave the feeling of having some affection for the right.
Looking at the list of Top 14 teams, one must admit that the left is very well represented with cities as emblematic for her Toulouse, Clermont-Ferrand, Montpellier, Paris, Lyon. At least the rugby public would lean left and it has long been in areas where they are not the priests who learned the game of rugby to children, but teachers often secular and socialist.
Remember also that it is a leftist president, François Mitterrand, who was the first to attend the final of rugby league in France in 1981, while all his predecessors on the right, present at the final of the Coupe de France Football since 1927, had always snubbed the event.
"Rugby is the control of violence by law. The problem is whether violence is more right or left. History teaches us that matter there is a draw. "So said Jean Lacouture, who refused to settle in the Express in 2007. Difficult indeed to get an opinion as the values of right and left, sieved speeches of politicians, now appear to be confused often in total disarray.
Former coach XV of France, Bernard Laporte, who has put up posters for the Socialist Party in his youth and has campaigned ardently for François Mitterrand in 1981 along with his working-class parents, has finished in the Secretary of State government François Fillon and sings today urbi et orbi the virtues of Nicolas Sarkozy, while saying he could be part of a future left-wing government.
