They also provided inter county footballers for Tipp and Sligo this year.
Galway are brewing up a storm. About seven inches of rain, to be precise.
The GAA picked some fuckin’ day to hold their showpiece occasion. Idiots.

Its a glorious morning in South Dublin.
Are we expecting rain later?
An odd shower I’d say is all

The showpiece was the hurling Cheasty. Haven’t you been listening to Marty?
Today is the consolation prize for those that can’t hurl…or commentate 
“But I do not believe in this thing about the Galway style. I just don’t. Attacking play? It doesn’t stand up. No one can verify it. The great Kevin Heffernan said it years ago in the Tommy Varden documentary.
“Go back through all the All-Irelands won. I dismiss 1925, I think it was bogus. There was skulduggery there and it should be dropped from the GAA records. Galway always had several great defenders. Great unheralded defenders. In 1998, people talk about Ja in the second half. Donnellan. PJ’s goal.
“What about Tomás Mannion? We’d never have won it without Mannion. Held Martin Lynch scoreless. Held Joe Brolly scoreless. Brolly said one time that he was very proud of holding Mannion scoreless!
“Of the three in a row team, one of the most worshipped was full-back Noel Tierney from Milltown. We had Martin Newell, the flying doctor. Mayo had their famous flying doctor and we had ours. Martin came from Germany. A superb defender. We scored one goal across the three-in-a-row finals. This idea does not stand up. It is a label but not reality.”

You’d miss the minor match beforehand all the same. We saw one of the best minor performances ever in Clifford a few years back. That stuff is missed now.

I got emotional watching the seam boylan documentary.
A timely reminder of how good it is to be involved with teams.
Sean Cavanagh just put his boot through the television when he saw the ‘Kerry, Kings of the Noughties’ graphic.
Pat is sweating already…
Name of the song here? I always forget it.
Edith Piaf, song title is the pretty obvious!
