So What Is It Now?
What is the most important; the size or the technique? For all my life I have heard it that a good big one is always better than a good small one. That is how it is in rugby and I heard the phrase being used by boxing commentators. Therefore I can only assume it must be true for all contact sports.
I wonder if the same holds true for non-contact sports like soccer and cricket. And then what about tug of war? Surely size must override technique here. Or is it true when they say that it is not the size of the ship but the motion of the ocean?
And now I wonder again. Does a flimsy skin-tight insurance cover convert a contact sport to a non-contact sport? I mean, wearing a scrumcap in rugby does not make it a non-contact sport nor does the use of a helmet in cricket make it a contact sport.
Or did I miss the crux of the matter with 2 ships passing in the night?
It is very hard to tell lately what is sport and what is horsing around. Would playing horsy, horsy be a contact sport?

Now you have me thinking real hard.
Are you bragging or complaining?
