One in Kanturk. Also not covered
“medaled” ffs when did this word become a thing
Had a lovely moment there cheering the Irish home with Chucks Jr. (4). It’s doubtful whether he’ll remember it in years to come but I won’t forget it.
Around 1896
Was lovely to know with 100m to go they were going to win. Like having a 5 point lead 3 minutes into injury time in a county final.
I hope he sang the anthem up on chair afterwards
Let’s put the twee GAA comparisons to one side FFS sake
Podrick Lodge compared the atmosphere at the Olympic Rowing Arena to the Gaelic Grounds in Limerick.
Which lad are you in the pic?
Is there an uncovered empty stand?

When is Waddilove out in the medal race?

Nathan Timoney.
St. Patrick’s Lisbellaw.
Corrigan is a proper Fermanagh GAA name too.

The Germans always have the most iconic singlets.

They always had a good eye for a uniform
An outstanding two hours of television sport and ten more to come today.
The Olympics utterly destroys the Euros and even the World Cup as a television spectacle.
It gives you the sense of summer holiday other worldliness that childhood World Cups did.
The richness of the diversity of sports in it and the richness of the viewing experience is totally glorious.
