If you look at Kilkenny players twitter for example, most of the big names are "ambassadors" for car dealerships or manufacturers

Any player I look at on twitter is a brand ambassador for something

Good piece on politico about what liberals need to do in opposition to Trump.

Talks about the counterproductiveness of nonsense like Madonna was coming out with and that rat Richard Spencer getting punched, but I particularly like the last two about finding some focus (GOP did this with Obamacare and the tea party - this piece recommends the same) and keeping an eye on issues that matter, instead of letting everything slip by due to Trump's personality freakshow drowning everything out.

Spencer deserved the punch

Eyrecourt , trading as Meelick Eyrecourt, has 292 in the parish. I think the legendary Brendan Lynshkey who played for Galway in the 80s was from the club.

Official sleeping partner is weird. Surely that would be the WAGS.

Mickey Burke's Official Vehicle Partner is Caterpillar.

I thought it was a Hummer

What ever happened to Bendix ?
Andy McEntee should hang a picture of a Subaru car beside the flour bag whenever Meath play.

Do they get other stuff from sponsors like insurance from AIG, clothes from Benetti Menswear, Sports gear from O'Neills or Lifestyle Sports, healthy food from Linwoods.

I see Aer Lingus, The Gibson Hotel, Ros nutrition and others also sponsor them. Do they all get freebies from them as well. I presume that's why they hold their banquets in the Gibson of late.

Serious question but to other counties get free stuff from their sponsors as well and I don't just mean from O'Neills?

Benetti crop up with other counties.

Lusmagh in offaly, the home of Jim and John Troy, Joachim Kelly Brendan Birmingham, Brendan Kelly, all ireland winners to boot.

What about Seir Kieran?

Typ totally incorrect analysis.Jesus wasn't an early hippy spreading unconditional love.His mission was to save sinners from damnation.If saving sinners wasn't the point,what was?

Church attendance dwindles because most people have convinced themselves that God doesn't exist and religion is poppycock.

That's fine,but what happens if God does exist and the Church teaching is correct?

people can hang around the back of heaven with the Hindus and the Protestants

There's still a few sash jerseys around. Ahane in Limerick, st. Mary's cahirciveen are a couple that spring to mind. I think parnells in Dublin and portarlington in Laois do too. Kilruane McDonaghs in Tipp do too.

Clonad in Laois have a sash jersey also.

It will always be Queen's county

He was chatting to Matt Cooper yesterday evening on the Last Word and he was saying that the 2005 & 2008 defeats to Tyrone were the worst defeats for him and the win over Donegal in 2014 was the best as they'd finally beaten the dreaded blanket defence.
Do Kerry have any dark sided players left now or was he their last?

Kerry lost all Irelands to Dublin, Armagh and Tyrone
They beat Mayo, Cork and Donegal
They would love to have been able to beat Dublin and Tyrone

Dutch appeal to Trump

Dromid Pearses in South Kerry are based in Mastergeehy which is basically a townland of Waterville. Waterville is the parrish and Dromid only reformed in the 1970s I think having not fielded for many years.

To put this in perspective, the census of 2011 put the population of the area at 271 people, yet they have produced the likes of Declan O'Sullivan and Jack O'Connor. Fairly remarkable.

Gníomh go Leith gave the world Ambrose O'Donovan and has 256

I think.over time a majority will see how dangerous Brexit is
