Time certainly does fly by, apart from the birth of my son, this was the greatest moment of my life. Standing on the Hill, ranting and roaring like a lunatic, jumping higher than i ever jumped when i was playing, at the final whistle. If only you could bottle that emotion.

Strangely, in relation to the pitch invasion debate, our win didn't seem real until i set foot upon the hallowed turf...........

I hope i'm alive to see Sam being brought back to the Orchard....................

I struggled to even enter Croke Park that day, it was the most emotional day of my life, I was crying on the road up to Dublin, in the pubs and during and after the game, I thought we were going to win it and then I thought about the generations of people that never got to see Armagh win Sam and I would cry some more.

Driving around Wisconsin for work near a year later I would think about it and I would get euphoric, to this day I watch the game once a month because I will probably never witness us winning Armagh again.

I know that is irrational as it is just football after all but it is what it is and that was the most surreal day of my life.
Armagh, the one true love of a mans life.

The ten year anniversary of the birth of gaelic football.
How the time flies.

Armagh are like the English...they invent games and then become shite at them.

Your post is in exceptionally bad taste, especially straight after Stew's
What sort of a rise were you expecting ?

Weak attempt from you there Herr Seafoid. At the end of the day this is just GAA banter unlike the kind of incitement to hatred that lowlifes like you indulge in..you know, the kind that actually has real world consequences.

Tony I was at the 'this is your life' night for Oisin 'The Good but not quite Great' McConville a few weeks ago...550 or so ARmagh folk there to acknowledge his brilliance.

And he was brilliant.

One of the best.

At one point i was lucky enough to get chatting to Tony McEntee who was along with paul McGrane, Stevie mc, Benny Tierney, Geezer, John McEntee, John Toal and their women...as a tyrone fan, i have no bother in saying this, but they were a great team...one of the best, and if you look at their achievement of getting to 2 in a row, albeit only winning the one, you have to say that the run they had for 5 years or so will mark them down as one of the greatest teams ever.

I also look forward to next year - the 10 year anniversary of that Tyrone team who bate the clean dung out of Kerry in the semi final
