Todd: Hey, Shawn you're a big guy.
Shawn: Thank you.
Todd: Do you play rugby?
Shawn: I did in the past.
Todd: OK, how does rugby work?
Shawn: It's a bit like American football and soccer put together. It's, the ball's about the size of an American football, but the game, in American football you pass forward, but in rugby you pass backwards 1. Games are a bit shorter. Their 80 minutes long. Less stopages than American football, but like soccer it's continuous play, how-should-I-say, it's a physically 2 demanding sport, probably the one of the most physically demanding sports in the world.
Todd: OK, so you say it's physically demanding. How is it physically demanding?
Shawn: You have to be extremely strong, but at the same time, you have to have, wha-chu-call, an extreme line on stamina 3 to play this sport. Without stamina, you can not continue in this sport.
Todd: OK, just some people may not know, what is stamina?
Shawn: You have to be able to run for 80 minutes in the game. Besides the game rugby has a bit of it's own culture. A bit of a cult 4 in the world. It's a very small following but people do follow it, follow it very devoutly 5, very seriously, and it, how-should-I-say, I can honsestly say rugby has been a big part in changing me into the person that I am presently.
Todd: Uh-huh. How so?
Shawn: Sort of, how I can develop my leadership skills, my social skills, and how to work as a team player, in such a, how-should-I-say, in that time when you do play rugby, it's so aggressive, and it teaches you how to be a leader in tight situations, and it shows how you can truly push yourself to the limit, and not go, how-should-I-say, not go over the limit.
