The fascination that people have with someone not taking up an intercounty career always makes me laugh. David Gillick was told he should give up running as heād have a chance of making the Dublin panel. Lads flogging themselves for little to no reward rather than pursuing a professional career is a bit bizarre.
Elite athletes like Gillick and Supple couldnāt meet the standards of top level GAA. But you wonāt hear @Little_Lord_Fauntleroy admit they were made fools out of by hobbyists
Agreed. Derry could have a hape of all ireland titles. But where would that leave room for particle colliders, nobel prizes, greatest pop songs ever, riding etc?
There was no suggestion mescall made the wrong decision. Just he was actually meant to be an excellent footballer. Which I was surprised by to be honest.
Itās mostly midlands muldoons who have just crawled out from under a rock who ascribe to this worldview. Coastal counties generally have a sense of perspective on this type of craic. *
Obviously Limerickās ācoastlineā along the shannon doesnt count.
