Anyone care to translate that shite into English for me?
Capcisin is the stuff in question. A naturally occuring chemical in Chillies-makes em hot.
Think MGG had a stallion backed into her on occasion.
Surely you mean bestdumpcuntlish of the localised cuntography dialect?
Iāll do my best.
If that horse has arthritis, why was he in Bejing?
Thats the point, the horse doesnt have arthritis, it was being prescribed a drug to improve performance. One that makes its shins burn and causes any rap it gets to hurt hugely. Hence it would feel the burning and keep its legs up higher.
This is what is being reported.
That horse has no more arthritis than a new born.
Itās time for Denis Lynch to get down off his high horse. Boom Boom.
Seriously though, giving an animal a drug that will cause it to be in serious pain is very very wrong. Were to other horses that tested positive all caught for the same drug?

But its still animal cruelty right?
making his legs burn without his approval I mean.
Should I have shoved a few ācuntsā in there or have you got my point?
Anyway to move on. Does this mean that Show Jumping Ireland is in fact a trading name for The Society of Cruelty to Animals? SCA for short. (and the C is not for Cunt btw)
Poor horseā¦heāll go from the dizzy heights of free luxurious accomadation in Bejing to a fridge freezer in Burger Kingā¦

Of course its animal cruelty, but it doesnt have arthritis. Jaysus you went off and done one there, as usual I guess.
Your obsession with the word ācuntā is a little odd but totally in keeping with all your posts, odd.
The Sports Councilās grants to individuals is dictated by an anti-drugs ethos so the individuals involved shouldnāt benefit from any grants.
I think this is showing signs of becoming a systemic problem in Irish equestrian though with OāConnor, Kuerten and now Lynch all guilty in recent years. The sport clearly needs cleaning-up (it always did - what a ridiculous amount of fights they have among themselves) and the best way to reform anything is to hold off on funding.
Thereās some weird relationship with the government though and the funding isnāt all directly from the Irish Sports Council and itās not part of the usual grant allocations. Donāt know why that is but Iād imagine itās to look after some vested interests somewhere.

Why do you think anyone here is condoning animal cruelty?

Ah boo boo
You donāt even know me, people usually have to sleep with me to reach that conclusion.
The use of a the C word is a homage to the users here. Youād think theyād show more gratitude.
Cunts.
But still ye chose to lob some cheap tabloid lines in ahead of my rant.
Enough for me.

Your weird.
Anybody see Alister Craigs interview he gave his heat yesterday. Assuming he wouldnāt be qualifying for the final he had a cut off the likes of Eamonn Coughlan, My Boy Blue etcā¦
Interview from RTE:
Cragg said: 'Prominent names in this sport are sitting in Ireland and are talking about how we are not great like they used to be. But they forget that in the seventies they never had thirteen Kenyans under thirteen minutes.
'There is so much negativity from the top down about how people look at our sport in Ireland. Itās sad because if you put myself or Mark Carroll in against any of the old guys, we could have given them a go to the line.
'I ran 3.36 in cross country season, I know I could run 3.34 if I was next to Eamonn (Coughlan) and those boys.
He added: āAnd itās about time they acknowledged us instead of putting us down to make themselves look like legends. I think our sport needs a bit of support from the guys who used to run it. Maybe we need a fresh crew of people who want to help the sport.ā
Cragg also spoke about the disappointment with the race he had just run and how he felt he was carrying demons on his back coming down the home straight when he knew he would not finish in the automatic qualifying positions.
'I was in peak (condition), I performed at the beginning of August. I know that I have the ability to medal out there, when things are on fire, I could do it. I have got no control when Iām on fire and at times like the Olympic Games is when you reach your best.
'But if youāre struggling on the edge of being great and youāre having a bad day, then the faults are going to be magnified.
āI should have taken the lead with 300 metres to go, I felt like I was still jogging at that stage. And when I feel I need to work, it all just falls apart. And then I had no chance at 150 (metres to go) and the more I dug in there was no impact.ā
He added: āThe plan was to be at the front with 200 to go and then let the adrenalin kick in. But instead of the adrenalin kicking in, I had all these demons jumping on my shoulders with 100 to goā
The Irish 5000m indoor record holder also spoke about the loneliness of his sport and questioned his own participation in a sport that he has given so much to.
Emotionally Cragg revealed: 'I live alone in a city where there are no people my own age. Iāve stuck with my coach for the last eight years and I come to somewhere like this and Iām just alone. And people are looking to f***ing tear you down when they can.
āYou get over injuries and youāre digging deep to find something else. I mean, I donāt know where Iām going to go from here.ā
Okay
Now that made me laugh.

lol.
Yea I saw the interview, fucking hell the poor fucker was torn to shreds, dont hold out much hope for him for Sunday. Hope he does alright.

Ya for something as mentally tough as running and after having a break down like that, he will find it very hard to be right for Sunday. The points about loneliness are very true too. I know a couple of lads who are big into their running and the dedication and hours they put in on their own are massive.
Is he living in Ireland at the moment? Maybe when he comes back we could arrange to meet him and bring him out for a pints or something?
How has this veered into accusations of some of us condoning animal cruelty?
Personally, I think yer manās a cunt if he gave the horse drugs that would inflict pain on it.
He should be Lynched.
Read bits of that earlier but hadnāt seen the full thing. Really pours his heart out and it doesnāt bode well for the final with all that negativity around.
The thing is thereās no point him saying that heād have beaten Eamon Coughlan - you canāt compare eras like that. The tracks were different, the shoes were different, the funding was different and the competition was different. Middle and long distance running is obviously tougher now for an Irishman than it was before. That doesnāt make you exempt from criticism, especially when you admit yourself you made tactical errors and were mentally fragile in the biggest race of your career.
Few pints might help him out alright.
Nah part of the rant was saying how he was living in Arkansas I believe to be with his coach, some McCarthy fella (?). Cragg was saying heās the only person in the place of his age and about how lonely it was.
At one point the reporter (Murray?) said how he knew how tough Cragg trained and Cragg nearly done one saying he couldnt know, that nobody knows.
Tough stuff to listen to, Iād have huge respect for anyone who puts their life on hold to pursue an Olympic dream, especially those not born with silver spoons in their mouths (Iām looking at most of the equestrian and sailing people here).
