All Blacks Win!!!!!

What a great day to be a New Zealander.  The sun is shining and we are all basking in the glory of a win that has been 24 years coming. I dare anyone who loves sports and has never seen rugby to watch it and not become an instant fan.  The game was intense, keeping you on the edge of your seat to the very end.  Many might say that it was too close of a game and that we only just won, but lets remember the games leading up to this victory.  The All Blacks deserved to win.  They were the better team not only last night but in the entire tournament.  They played their heart out last week against Australia, a pre-final game, only to have to rally back up and play the game of their lives last night.  They were tired, battered and bruised and yet they knew the whole country was counting on them, willing them to win, so they kept going, giving every last breath they had to make the victory.  We are proud of you All Blacks.  Its been a tough last year for New Zealand with so much heart-ache and maybe that makes this win feel all the more sweeter.  We have something to smile about for awhile.
