Most exciting AI run in

Mike Sheehy · July 31, 2010, 06:41:57 PM

Well, its disappointing but it was time for a change.

If Roscommon and Kildare win it will probably be the most exciting run in to an AI we will ever see as the hype will be unreal in the counties involved.

whats the most exciting buildup to a game you've had ? For me it was the '97 AI. Hunger is the best sauce.

Hunger! Ye were between courses.

Best build up for me the 1989 final. 8,000 people at training ffs.

2005 final. We had gotten the monkey off our backs in 2003. Some craic we had I can tell you !

Here here. There's a strange feeling of relief-might bode well for the Kerry, Tyrone teams of the future. 2005 semi against Armagh and final. Then Derrylaughan v Brocagh in the first round of the U16 championship in 1995 at Brocagh. Nearly soiled myself.

I'd love to see Down or Kildare go all the way. Obviously i'd like to see Roscommon as well, but just can't see that at all. Meath don't deserve it after the Leinster final saga.

Heh heh. How sweet it would be to shove this crap down so many throats.

Why is it crap?

Sorry - I am partisan here.

If we were to win it, it would be the sweetest ever because so many want us to lose.

Anyway, "deserve" doesn't enter the sporting vocabulary.

It does. A lot. It just doesn't make any difference!
