Stumbled across Only Murders in the Building at the weekend. Enjoyed it.
A comedy murder, mystery with Steve Martin.

The Derry game in 95 was the best memory of all those years.
The Derry game of 1995 was the best memory of my lifetime following Tyrone - easily the best.
I know we won 4 AI titles but that day was hard to beat. Actually the first AI win was a bit of an anti climax. But in fairness the 2005 final was a brilliant final to win as was 2008.
The opposition, the rivalry, the excessive heat on the day, the tension in the stands, the tension on the pitch, red cards, the animosity, the hits, the intensity in the air, the late winner - it had absolutely everything.
We will never forget that day !!!!
100% agree with this but I'll add to that list, the complete arrogance of the Derry fans around us at half time and their growing sense of desperation as the second half unfolded 😁 Not sure if it was because I was younger or had a bit of drink in me that day but the elation at the final whistle that day was greater than I felt after any of the AI wins. It was also the day Peter announced himself as unequivocally the greatest footballer in the land. What a display he put on that day. Jimmy Magee on commentary for UTV's coverage, "if ever there was a point worth repeating over and over again...Peter Canavan is some footballer"
One of the best lines of commentary there ever was. Jimmy Magee was the voice of that summer in 1995.
Another great line from jimmy that game was when Pascal got sent off and it showed the replay of his punches and he said "there's the right hook, left hook, and at this stage Canavan is leading on points" 🤣
A day that will never be forgotten by any Tyrone supporter.

Clifford will be first player since JACK o'Shea to win back to back player of year awards since Jack O'Shea. Has it in the bag.
Matt Connor, Maurice Fitzgerald and Peter Canavan 3 best forwards I ever saw. Clifford is above them now and not in his prime yet.

I don't understand the Kerry mentality here. How does playing a game 7 days later weaken your chances of playing your best game?
Unfortunately the mentality among some Kerry GAA people is that prominent defeats have to be demeaned in some way or other. Easy enough to pull up plenty examples involving just Tyrone. Spillane's puke football jibe in 2003 which was seized upon, the county chairman the following year with the nauseating comments about Kerry saving football, the narrative pushed by some throughout that decade that it was a system or fitness that saw Tyrone win and that Kerry were the better footballers. And Covid in 2021, surely the strangest one yet given an extra week shouldn't have affected Kerry and Tyrone were still weakened. Kerry bounced back to win All Irelands on these occasions but that wasn't enough for some, they still had to try and talk down and cheapen the defeats suffered previously. Not a good look. But still a better one than using a global pandemic in which millions died for the cheapest of laughs.
There were Kerry folk in this era who stood above this - I remember Ger O'Keefe for example speaking with such class in 2005. Others in the county would do well to follow his example.

Big prize for the winner with the easier tie v Derry in the semi, should they get past a very improved Cork team.
It will be interesting to see how both managers approach this game tactically especially around restarts and do the play a running game.
Clifford often wins a lot of marks so you'd imagine Kerry will kick the ball a lot more or will they learn from the traps set for them the last time?
Will Tyrone push up on the Kerry kickouts?
Will Morgan go short if Kerry back off?

For me it all hinges on David Clifford.
If he can be nullified Tyrone will win
If he's at the races Tyrone are goosed.
It's that simple IMO
Looks like a job for Meyler from my outsider's eye viewpoint.

Only player in GAA history to win an All-Ireland senior medal in both codes in the same season, a record that will probably won't be matched. RIP Teddy.
