While most rugby teams allow their opponents to catch kickoffs, Lyle barrels downfield and leaps for his own team's hanging boot as though he were Jerry Rice.
Rugby had just gone professional in England, and Bath, the six-time national champion, took a look at the cocky American and made him an offer: one year, $52,000, no guarantees.

One of Labour's most remarkable gains at the 1997 general election was Rugby and Kenilworth.
To the west of this rather oddly shaped constituency, prosperous Kenilworth has always been safely Conservative in national elections, and even when chalking up huge and unlikely gains elsewhere in the local elections of 1995, Labour failed to win a single local council seat here.
To the east, Rugby is a mixed town politically, with a local authority never controlled outright by Labour since the local government map was redrawn in 1973.

Legislation affecting Rugby and Kenilworth is initiated by the Government, not generally by MPs, whether Scottish or English.

I very much welcome the recent extra investment in public services from the Government and I will continue to urge them to invest in Rugby and Kenilworth and the West Midlands as a whole.

At the same time he was offered the chance to play super 12 rugby union for the Wellington Hurricanes, which could possibly have seen the Umaga brothers, seperated by seven years, playing in the same side.

 FT.com - Special Reports / UK Election 2001
Many of the seats gained by Labour were (as in the East Midlands) in constituencies based on small or medium-sized towns, such as Shrewsbury, Burton, Stafford and Wyre Forest (centred on Kidderminster).
In the main, it will be the constituencies gained by Labour in 1997 which will form the electoral battleground when the next general election is called, with up to ten seats which could realistically go to either of the two main parties.
It will be a major surprise indeed if Labour holds onto Rugby and Kenilworth, Shrewsbury, Warwick and Leamington, or The Wrekin, but the marginals listed above from Stafford (majority 8%) to Tamworth (majority 15%) are all in the balance, a group which includes Labour's emblematic 1997 gain of Birmingham Edgbaston.
