The news talk school of journalism. Ask a question longer than the answer.
Okay guys, I think we’ve reached consensus that Jackie and his ghostwriter have reached the end of the road. There were some interesting and insightful columns but it’s year 3 and he’s exhausted all angles. Thanks for everything, Jackie.

Does anyone remember brollys article about winning the sigerson cup? They robbed a boat in the celebrations. Poetic licence.
Can we now refer to him as hackie without getting banned?
It’s all brolly does. Make shit up.
Or the Paul Kimmage angle, where you are talking to yourself.
Did you see the Dubs on Sunday?
I did, they won handy
But did you really see them?

Jackie will always find new and original ways of shoe-horning in the fact that he has marked so many top forwards in his career
Kimmage has the odd good article, 95% dross.
Kimmage is a cunt and a hyprocrite.
Kimmage is doing a Christmas special next year where he sits down kids aged five and tells them Santa isn’t real.
