More GAA Shame

[EstebanSexface]

he defrauded people out of millions for fake cancer treatment and you’re talking about a score from a match two decades ago?

Was it @Mac who said that lance was a scumbag for cheating at sport but raising millions for charity while DJ is sound for not cheating at sport but raising money for himself pretending it was for charity

I don’t think that is in anyway contradictory mate.

Someone raising money for charity. Good.

Someone pretending to raise money for Charity for themselves. Bad.

Lance Armstrong. Cunt

[Little_Lord_Fauntleroy]

Your whatabouttery is a defence

[Jayo76]

I dond disagree with him saying that, what he said is GAA people are scum. Very different

[Hisenberg]

I’m not too sure I was overly excited about the score at the time. I think if anybody else did it, no one would remember it.

There were still some savage points from that era that stand up to today’s standards . Kevin Broderick v Kilkenny in 2001, and the Rock v Limerick in 2001 come to mind.

@Julio_Geordio

That was an incredible score

You must have been fair bad at hurling

[EstebanSexface]

I’d have kicked that over

[Cheasty]

The Dodger certainly won’t be the first All-Ireland winner to be convicted of fraud if this is as it seems.

[Julio_Geordio]

Lads wouldn’t puck it 30 yards those days off their hand. Why do you think it made the top 20 gaa moments of all time?

[myboyblue]

Lads have drink on Board here

[FlakeAway]

If a lad from Antrim done it, it wouldn’t have been shown again on tv.

[Julio_Geordio]

I was/am bad at hurling if that helps btw

[Hisenberg]

DJ and Kilkenny were box office at the the time. Had to fit them in somewhere.

[Jayo76]

Keep posting in the threads of the clubs and organisations you love, under the pretence of hate of course!

Is there games in the Scottish league this week?

[Julio_Geordio]

I definitely have drink on board. But DJ was an icon. I will be sad if this is true.

[EstebanSexface]

for DJ?

[EmilioButragueno]

The Brian Corcoran point in the 2004 final (ot the year after) was the most unnecessarily praised Irish sporting moment that I can remember.

Wasn’t far behind that point, game was won fair enough, but the dance, the slice and the flight of the ball (a laser that didn’t waver) made it something else. He only played 2 games too so it was a hat tip to his own year.

Shefflin had his best ever game for Kilkenny in the semi- final and that’s never mentioned about that year.

All a bit moot now. Sad stuff.

[Julio_Geordio]

This was the greatest point of all time btw.

Time of the match etc

Great GAA Moments... Brilliant Ciaran Carey Point (1996)

DJ cheated at sport too mate

[Cheasty]

@Julio_Geordio

BTW never bought the DJ greatest hurler of all time hype. He wasn’t close to the greatest KK hurler ever. But he had something alright

He’s underrated.

People think he’s overrated because that point against Clare (which was a lovely score at the perfect angle for the camera) bizarrely became his signature score as far as the media were concerned.

Greatness requires players to produce moments of otherworldiness. Carey’s goals were special. Nobody else could have scored them.

Nobody else could have made that rapier thrust which decided the 2002 All-Ireland semi-final.
