Stupid Commentator / Pundit Comments 2008 Calendar Year

I’m getting a bit freaked out by how much I hate Kevin McStay. If McStay, Jamie Redknapp and Andy Gray were lined up in front of me and I had 2 punches then I’d choose to hit McStay twice. Those two comments tonight were ridiculous. Didn’t Tommy Lyons pioneer that ‘arseboxing’ term a few years back? Can’t remember the context though.

I always enjoy when Mcstay is on Bandage as I know you are watching and actually boiling with rage at the screen. I always look forward for the post to follow. I actually enjoy McStay and Duignan too for the hurling but maybe with Duignan its because I was chatting him 1night in Birr years ago and he was sound and great craic.

Craig Burley on Saturday during the Sunderland Liverpool match when Sunderland were gettting on top:

Sunderland just look fitter and leaner to me - I am looking at Kieran Richardson and Andy Reid.

Andy fucking Reid?

Perhaps he saw Andy only having two Big Macs at half time and surmised that Andy must be on a Weightwatchers program?

jimmy magee was just on radio one talking about the all ireland coverage when he came out with this pearl

its online at www.rte.ie…www is of course the abreviation for “world wide net”…

Brian Kerr was co-commentator on Setanta tonight so I’m sure there’ll be a few…

To start the ball rolling:

Shay Given saves a ball that was probably going wide and ends up in a corner for Montengro - Kerr says, “Better be safe than certain”

What the fook??

Some Yank dude on Sky at the Ryder Cup after Harrington’s excellent pitch on to the green:

That’s a superb golf shot!

Thanks for clearing that up. I thought I was watching rugby there.

That’s the way of the golf commentator. When it’s a good shot it’s just a good shot but when it’s a great shot it becomes a great golf shot. Odd.

I’ll be hoping Ronaldo gets in some good football shots on Sunday.

Well Kentucky is the heartland of the pro-gun lobby and also the home of bourbon so they are used to different types of shots there. Best to clarify.

Eddie O’Sullivan used to go on about the importance of having possession of the football.

Twat.

That’s something I don’t understand about rugby.

You often hear coaches and pundits talking about players being lovely footballers.

Shame they’re wasting their time playing rugby then.

What do you think the abreviation I.R.F.U stands for…do you know where or how the game of rugby originated…

I don’t care where it originated from. They play rugby, not football.

Two vastly different sports Puke.

Both played by footballers though apparently.

And with a football…

well that is a very insular view to take of it farmer…when talking about footballing skills both are pretty much the same but applied to different sports…things like vision, creativity, pace, strength etc…

You’d wonder how they came up with the name Rugby then. Why not “Gay Football” or “Gay Ball”?

because the game originates from a town in great britain called “rugby”…

So why not just I.R.U then? I’d be much happier with that.

why don’t you write them a letter or e mail and let them know your feelings jugernaut…I am sure they would only be more than happy to oblige you and your request…
