Boat race

Matt the Thrasher · 04-07-2007, 06:30 PM

I see Cambridge won the boat race today , what I want to know is why are the same two teams in the final every year.

Does anybody bother to watch it?, do you care who wins ? , or is it elitist rubbish?

When I was a boy the boat race was a big deal , though we had very little live sport on the telly in those days , I used to watch it all the time even though I've never been near a University in my life, I always supported Cambridge no idea why , maybe because the used to lose all the time in those days and we love an underdog.

thats not a bad shout forgot it was on until i saw the advert this afternoon, seems to me that all it is about is bragging rights for a year till the next one.
