When you are watching your local team (GAA or soccer) and state geez yer mans a good player is that Mickey's brother?

And you are told....

No that's Mickey's son.

Aye similar thing happened me on Wed night...i was marking this cub in a reserve match and found out i had played against and marked hid da many times
If you think thats bad, lad i know was playing a reserve match couple of years ago, 16/17 at the time. An oul hand from the other team comes up to him at the end and says hello, making eye contact with him. Lad looks at him puzzled, wondering did he know him or not.
"You not remember me from school??",
lad replies "nah, I think you've got the wrong person"
"Of course ye do, sure we went to school together! your Dwyer's brother aren't ya"
"eh no.. I'm his son".
Dwyer and his brother being well into their 50s  :D

I'm trying to decide on a really meaningful message..
