As we all know the gael is a serious man.

Yes it is as I wonder what power he has.I feel it is a figurehead position and has no real power and was wondering others views on it. I am just wondering what is the diffeence between the president and Liam  Mulvihil.
Who has more power?

Any comments on the above?

dubnut to answer  both yes to a and b

also it would suit you better to heed the opinion of the WHO on issues like this.

The World Health Organization WHO would know a lot more about it than the rest of us -
to quote-

" All children and adolsecents have the right to grow up in an environment protected from the negative consequences of alcohol consumption and, to the extent possible, from the promotion of alcoholic beverages"

WHO also goes on to urge countries  and governments-

"ensure that no form of advertising is specifically addressed to young people , for instance through the linking of alcohol to sports........."

i was surprised myself at how many of the 26 county politicians were blueshirts.

i suppose the difference from the little 6 we live in and the 26 is that the wee6 is effectively run by the masons who are prevalent in every major powerful body although there has been changes down really to education.

The gael is giving a little bit of advice to the GPA

Make a choice to play intercounty football / hurling or not to play .

Playing gaelic games to a high level is a matter of choice you are all free to choose.

Make your choice.

also did someone ever tell these guys that they are free to choose to play intercounty and free to choose not to play?

playing gaelic games is a choice.

choose to play or choose not to play.

well we both know that.

but to run on such a one dimensional self serving ticket makes them natural pd types.

their natural home would seem to be with the pds.

the gaa could be a bit more imaginative on other income streams eg bank of ireland football etc.

regarding social clubs i'd rather they not be there but can understand it.as long as they don't serve under 18s and as a result of them inter club feuding doesn't happen.

a big problem with clubs is that they themselves are not imaginative when it comes to income streams close to home- they daren't go near the big building contractors or tradesmen etc that is a hugely untapped market that the clubs don't go near - their own members where they could get collectively each year a small fortune.
also membership fees .some of the above don't relate as much to urban areas.

alcohol sponsorship of sport is wrong!

the gael takes no prisoners!

it shouldn't be allowed.

the gaa is in a position of influence what message does it send out?

it promotes drinking and as we all know there is more bad comes from alcohol than good.

the  26 county government should ban alcohol sponsorship relating to sport.

but then people in very high places  love to brag about their love of bass!

but if the 26 county government doesn't the gaa should take the lead hopefully at congress a motion will be forwarded and passed banning the gaa doing so.
what we witnessed at the ryder cup was disgusting and the silly bravado about downing pints in record time as a mode of celebrating was nauseating.
