If we were to invert this thread and call seemingly decent people arseholes, who would you suggest?

I'd nominate Ted and Ruby Walsh on a joint-award; just can't stand either of the conceited pair.

Joe brolly

Joe seems to be a dichotomy. 1 part complete arsehole regarding the GAA, and 1 part sound in his work with organ donation etc.

Also a third part Walter Mitty (I was talking to a county player blah blah) :)

Jarlath Burns. Find him to be annoyingly preachy.

Stephen Fry. Beloved figure of the intelligentsia but rather annoying.

Ha, I would actually have Jarlath the other way around, used to dislike him mainly cos he was an Armagh diehard :) But I find myself respecting and agreeing with more and more of hat he says, but you are right that he doesnt have a great delivery.

Would agree on Stephen Fry tho, I think what finally got to me with him was the glum raised eyebrow look, gives the impression he is talking down to people all the time. Also dont think alot of what he says is that original ....but sure then who is really?

GM - That because he is 99% of the time.

Sam Maguire.

At least I will think he is decent when he finally heads west, the bollix.
