The Seething thread

[Juhniallio]

2 in a row? It’s Limerick he’s talking about isnt it? If you’re counting taking breaks for not being as good as Tipp, then Kilkenny did 8 in 10 years didnt they?

@Juhniallio

Explain this to me Gil. How would lads who’ve won 2 all irelands have any claim to be the greatest team of all time?

I don’t think they could have any claim to it

Who is saying this?

[myboyblue]

I dunno mate, you just said they won 2, I’m pretty sure it was 3 at the very least anyway.

[carryharry]

Ouch

[Juhniallio]

The post you linked. @Your_Mums_Athletic is the fella

[gilgamboa]

Ah shtap. I coukdnt read it such was the level of seethe in it

[Thomas_Brady]

While I’m not disagreeing with you, why did you name Tipp in there? 1 in a row teams certainly shouldn’t be in the convo.

[Heyyoubehindthebushes]

Its the need to breed the madness out of themselves. Dont want to be a county of habsburgs

[Juhniallio]

Because Tipperary won it in 19. It would put a dent in the argument that Limerick are the greatest team ever.

[TheUlteriorMotive]

Imagine they did six in a row.

Not sure I said two in a row anywhere?

In all fairness, I don’t think anyone is seriously arguing that Limerick are the greatest team of all time or that Tipp’s all Ireland in 2019 wasn’t a fluke.

[Thomas_Brady]

No one said they were the greatest team ever but rather that a win this year would have them on the cusp. The cusp is an important destination but it’s still remains the cusp. But you can’t be the greatest team ever without getting to the cusp so the cusp in itself is a significant achievement but still short of being the greatest. But you can’t achieve greatness without cuspness.

[fenwaypark]

In sport, we all want to label players and teams as the GOAT. In reality, you can only be the best player/team of your generation. All games evolve and it makes it impossible to compare players/teams across generations.

You had lads doing fanny farts here when they weren’t awarded the 15 All Stars. In fairness I’d never heard Kilkenny going on about only getting 9 All Stars when they had the most dominant team of all time.

They used to get fierce upset over a lack of goalie all star iirc. Which ironically is taxing Limerick fans too

[Thomas_Brady]

Agreed pal. Fruitless arguments… But for the sake of the internet, it’s very important.

Multiple posters dancing to my tune here for the past 24 hours. Exceptional stuff.
