You're not going to get that blog.
From here on I'm just going to write in the perspective of a fanboy.
I love PRO Rugby. Yes, I know it's not at the quality of Super Rugby or the Aviva Premiership, but I don't care because we have professional rugby in America. The teams here lack the mounds of data that their foreign friends have about in-game decision making, possession, and other countless aspects of the game that they collect data on, but again this is a good thing.
What they have given us 4 weeks into the season is some high scoring, fast, and at times incredibly exciting rugby. This is exactly what we need to create buzz and buy in from the rugby loving community, the casual fans and newcomers to the sport. We are also developing domestic stars that we can watch week in and week out. Players like John Quill, Mike Te'o (he has been around for a minute I know, but he is new to some that don't follow the game as closely), and Will Magie are making names for themselves and again are fun to watch.
Yes, I know there are areas that can and should be improved upon and it is easy to be critical of them. These come with starting a new league and fixing them will ultimately decide if this league is meant to last or just be blip on the timeline of rugby in America. Regardless of what happens in the future, we should just enjoy what is happening right now, players and teams playing exciting and professional rugby here in America.
