I have rugby practice tonight (tuesday), THREE DAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS! I’m thinking I shouldn’t go, because it is a time to prepare for Christmas, not for the sports season.
What do you guys think?

Is this what advent is about now? Just another month before christmas? Have you seen any other demonstrations of this?

Maybe rugby practice tonight is a way to evangelize your faith and educate those as to what Advent is all about. Just a thought

Haha, very true, but I think I’ll be busy avoiding huge people trying to tackle me 😃

Instead of going to practice what would you be doing?
How are you preparing for Christmas in the 3 days left?
Did you know when you joined the team that there will be practices at times that may not be convient?
Remember you did make a commitment when you joined the team.
 
Your body doesn’t know it’s Christmas. Training is always good - preemptively burn off those holiday calories. That’s why I’m going to Martial Arts tonight. 😃
 
I think you can do both. You can go to practice and still prepare for Christmas. Work it all out together. Practice is at a specified day/time, but I’m sure there are many opportunities for preparing for Christmas.

But you sound like me, you sound tired 😛 If you’re tired, take a break from practice. But, you know, it might may you feel refreshed.
