I'm sure Aidan McCloskey just got scunnered as I think he was playing for 7 hurling teams when he was 16 ((2 schools teams, 4 club teams (U-16, Minor, U-21 and Senior) and 2 county teams)) and his da was one of those usual GAA parent ball-busters! Add all the training and playing on top of A-Levels etc. and talk about player burn out!

Great post Hardy. It's as bad as the old adage "shure it's man's game" whenever someone complains about having a stick drawn across their head from behind!

Do you think Donal Og and his counterparts would accept any ban in the extremely unlikey event that one was imposed?! The GPA would have the "professional" hurling stars of Cork on strike before you could say "Fergal Logan".

Tut tut Syd are you really going to choose a foreign game over your national game? 

I watched a bit of one last night on Discovery where he was in the Sierra Nevada and he started eating this little live snake! 

Antrim will be in big trouble later in the year if the are shipping 3 goals against the likes of London.

Yes i agree Paul mc Cormack would get on any county Hurling team.

That's not what he said and it is stretching it a wee bit to say he'd get on any county hurling team! One of the standout players in Ulster though. Derry didn't really have a standout player today but Ruarii Convery did they heavy scoring. If Armagh keep at it they'll overtake Derry and Down and be challenging Antrim for Ulster honours within the next few years. The fact that the Derry and Down boards don't give a shit about hurling might have something to do with that!

That was some performance today! Everyone was saying before the match that games like this tell us nothing but in fact it told us a lot, for starters Karl Stewart should have stayed in bed and DD Quinn must have a voodoo doll! Antrim were brutal in the second half!

Hurling is too fast and skillful for the average Armagh brain to keep up with.

He is lazy and his best years are behind him IMHO.

Sounds like you 

My favourite players:
Kenny Dalglish
Ian Rush
Peter Beardsley
John Barnes (although he was a lazy bollox)
Jan Molby
Robbie Fowler
Steve McMahon
John Aldridge
Alan Hansen
Steven Gerrard

It would be great if Robbie could get a CL winners medal after missing out in 2005. Maybe he'll come on as a sub and score the winner deep in injury time of extra time! What a way to go!!!!  

Did Syd get the ax from the forum?

In an interview in The Times yesterday the bloke that played President Palmer reckoned it was him paved the way for Obama to run for president as in 24 he was judged on his decisions and morals rather than his colour. I'm sure Obama is grateful...

So has he been banned then or not? There was a lot of arguing the toss on the "mudslinging" thread about who should be banned but did anyone get the chop?

Out of interest are there any rules on this forum i.e. 3 strikes and you're out? 2 yellows and you're off? or are bans just arbitrary depending on whether you're in "a clique" or not? Genuinely interested...

I couldn't build Lego so no! 

It's on this November but it's is really oversubscribed year after year so unless you have the skill-set they are looking for you'll not be going. Only 20% of the applications are for office-based workers wanting to go and have a "life experience" but all these places have been filled. They're really only looking for blockies and plasterers.
