Hey Fellas Just wondering the differance between the Russian fencing school and the French fencing school?

In French fencing schools, the lessons are in French. In the Russian school of fencing, by contrast, the language used is Russian.
If it's in Winter, the Russians win. This also goes for Germans vs. Russians.
Oddly enough, the Russian track record when invading France is nearly as bad.

Why sabre? Because you don't take heads with the point.
tlucente had already covered that.

Who wins then, the black bears? Sergei Golubitskiy's analysis was really interesting.
