The big one in the Bronx to get the whole show started.  Is this the year New York produce the shock?
They have been training very hard since early January, Mickey Coleman from Ardboe has been putting them through their paces. Leitrim have been very poor in the league but the fact they were having competitive matches gives them a big advantage.

Looks like its going to be a rough weekend on the East coast here in the states.  Hurricane Irene, a category 2 storm right now, could be the biggest storm seen by the North east in a long long time.  They expect it to hit NY area Sunday.  If it stays at catagory 2 it would cause severe damadge around NY, New England.  North Carolina will be first to get hit later today.   
Hopefully all our east coast residents on the board and their familys stay safe!

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A rush-hour collision Monday between two Metro trains north of downtown Washington, D.C., killed at least two people, a Metro official said.


At least two people were killed when two subway trains collided near Washington, a Metro representative said.

The crash occurred just before 5 p.m. on an above-ground track on the Red Line near Takoma Park, Maryland, according to the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority.

Two people were killed as a result of the crash, said Carlotta Tyler, a Metro spokeswoman.

At least nine people have been hurt, a Metro representative said, according to CNN affiliate WJLA.

"Metro reports massive injuries at this time," said a District of Columbia emergency alert. Officials at two area hospitals said they were told to expect injured patients.

Video from WJLA showed much of one Metro car on top of another. Both trains were on the same track, said John Catoe, Metro general manager.



A number of passengers were limping from at least one of the trains, many helping each other exit, video from CNN affiliate WUSA showed.  »

Fire department personnel were cutting through the trains and were still in the process of getting individuals from the wreckage, officials said at a press briefing
