It’s like one of those Jackie Chan movies, they’re running at him from all angles but he’s just swatting them away like flies

I think you are confusing a similarity in form (a recourse to quotation) to a similarity in content (what is specifically quoted).
He certainly seems to have the stamina for the job.
When pulling on a ball or opponent, always time ones swing so as to connect with the Grip of the Hurl.
Irrelevant. This point was the most clearcut trouncing of all for The Greater Tippo Empire.
The “server” is already “breaking down” again 
They’re all flooding in from premierview now.
The man truely is box office, he’s had them under his spell for near 20 years

On culture? Would you widely agree with Adorno (and Horkheimer’s) hypothesis?
Shortt is lowest common denominator stuff, but to be offended by it to the extent that you are is bizarre.
It’s only a bit of dog shit. It would be worse if it was human shit. On a Garda car.
Yes and no. I wish Adorno had lived to see RW Fassbinder’s films. I think they are great artworks, quite a few of them, but also extremely interesting as a counter Brechtian attempt at popular art – taking over the melodrama form from Douglas Sirk, I mean.

I do not agree. And it amazes me that you cannot see how Shortt-age insulted the Tipperary jersey.
I know to which incident with a North Kilkenny hurler you are referring. I will refrain from going through a list of coded references to Tipperary hurlers’ carry on – in Athlone, say.

Would you not see an element of what Bakhtin calls the carnivalesque in Shortt’s work - the kind of chaos, disruption and most importantly vulgarity that challenges high culture ?
No. But the best point yet about that… – that crap.
And Bakhtin, to me, is an awfully overrated thinker.
Id pay money to hear these Kilkenny and Tipperary lads attempt to speak these ramblings rather than Google up this gobbledygook. Remember guys their dialect prevents them from pronouncing the most basic words, “ROAAAAAD” “BAAAAABY” “BAAAAALL”
