Lads i've a hoor of a dead leg, i need to get rid of it for sunday, anyone know any quick fit solutions. Ice? Ice and heat? Oruveil gel? Rub it out?

I couldnt find the last thread on this so I'll start a new one.
The fight is coming up now and I have to say i'll be all out rootin for Hatton, he seems like a really sound bloke with an awsome talent and fierce dedication. However I think Hatton will have to knock Mayweather out if he is going to win as Mayweather is the better all round boxer. Cant wait for it, its gonna be some fight.
Mayweather 4/9
Hatton 7/4

I have a couple of games on DVD and I want to take some clips and make a highlight video.  Moviemaker and the other basic programs I have wont recognise the type of video that is on the dvd, is there some conversion I can do?

does anyone know a worthy replacement?Most of the others were never as up to date as it

Im looking for recommendations for places to go skiing. It would be a young group going so nightlife would be important, im organising it though, and the most important thing for me are good slopes and guaranteed snow. One lad I was talking to said he heard Bulgaria was excellent. I went to Lilliehammer in Norway with the school years ago which had great slopes but was too expensive. Any recommendations?

Or are rte.ie showing it?

Finally this show has delivered on its potential. Absolutely hilarious episode. Ronan Keating made up as a scouser.
Very funny when he was robbing all the sweets from the sweet factory and then goes up and buys one, only to stuff his face again after paying.
Priceless when Mario Rosenstock was taking the piss out of him, and Mario's face when the scouser did an "impression" of keating.

Next week it is Ken Doherty, should be good.

There is always some team that seems to punch above its weight in the championship, who will it be this year?
Possibilities:
Louth, Westmeath, Monaghan, Clare?

Hunky Dorys Salt and Vinegar

Cant find a report of the game anywhere, anyone at it? Sounded like a cracker on the radio. Meath were 6 points down at one stage, 4 down at half time, draw at full time and after the extra time the final score was
Meath 3.13, Kildare 1.15.

Parnell Park this saturday.
Anyone konw how the dubs are going, Is Ross O Carroll back from injury. Dermott Connolly should be a big threat. Any word on the teams?

Which do ye prefer? It is easier to see and judge the ball in daylight, especially in hurling, when the lights are rarely high enough (THough Croker may have solved this) but there is something cool about playing under lights, its refreshing or something...

Sorry if these mayhave been mentioned elsewhere but I heard a rumour that the GAA introduced a rule that there are to be no intercounty games played in December or January, can anyone confirm/dispel this?

Sure we might as well do hurling as well. THere should be more contenders for this one.
Contenders:
Sideline cut
Doubling on the ball in the air
Blocking
Soloing at full speed
High catching
First touch
Drop pucking

Mine would have to be doubling on the ball in the air but it is one that has faded out of the game since the 80's.

What is there to chose from? THe contenders would be high fielding, tackling or blocking, kicking off the ground.full spead solo running,kicking outside of the boot.
Mine would be the solo dummy.

I suppose we are all treating the rumours that he was quitting as crap? Twas in the Herald there on tuesday, citing the fact that mount sion did not bring him on despite being behind. He said 8 years with the club and 7 with the county and 'was it worth the hassle'.

Name the man to win 2 All Ireland medals and two All-Stars without ever playing a match in Croke Park in his career?

Not sure of this one but I've been told its true. Name the man who played in 4 consecutive All Ireland finals (not all the same grade), won all 4, and got man of the match in all 4.

An easy one for ye
Name the man to have played in both the Club football and hurling finals AND both the County hurling and football All-Ireland finals (not the same year obvoiusly).
