Maybe it was just the shine off O'Neills head as he went for a walk last night. I hear he is so bald when the moon hit's it a certain way it can light up the sky

I have always regarded "Hurling only" snobs from Kilkenny as sad people and as far removed from real GAA supporters that you can get. I wonder does King Henry regard himself as a GAA man at all.
I am dedicated to my club and county,I would say I am more heavily involved in Gaa than you are,just because I am dedicated to hurling and have no real interest in Gaelic Football doesn't make me less of a Gaa man than you or anyone else,I would guess there are people who are the same as me but prefer Gaelic Football to Hurling,and good for them.
Also I have won 2 minor All Ireland winners medals,1 Intermediate All Ireland winners medal and 2 Club All Ireland winners medals.. (also numerous Leinster titles in hurling both club and county at various age groups)
What have you won?
You might be a decent player, but that doesn't make you more of a GAA man than someone with no medals. Had you been born into another county, you might have nothing to show for your skills. Would you then be less of a GAA man?

However its still not as simple as you say because the £200 which is'over' will be taken up with other sundry expenses leaving next to nothing. If that's your understanding of living confortably its not mine, there's no scope there for recreation, holidays, a drink, meals out, treats for kids etc. I'd call it just scraping an existence and I'm sure there's loads of people who would agree. And remember this family is also going to see a further burden when VAT rises after christmas

I think that is the point that a lot of these " I worked it out after 5 minutes "people have missed. You can't know the outcome after 5 minutes, even after it is all over it is hard to put it altogether and have it all make sense.

When are they ever going to make a hurling edition of this?
It is our national sport after all,though I suppose it is easier train footballers than hurlers,hurling being more skillful and all that.Quote from: haze on October 04, 2010, 04:23:08 PMQuote from: King Henry on October 04, 2010, 03:43:36 PM

I love it when hurling people have a chip on their shoulder! Hurling is one of our national sports- no more, no less.
Maybe there has been no hurling series as RTE recognise the fact that bad football is easier on the eye to bad hurling- Also would be very difficult to pick intermediate teams of similar standard from any 8 of Cork, Waterford, Tipp, Offaly, Wexford, Kilkenny, Limerick, Galway, Clare, Dublin. I'd imagine the standards would vary significantly more than would be the case in footballQuote from: King Henry on October 04, 2010, 03:43:36 PMAre hurling people naturally inclined to be pains in the arse or do they go out of their way to do it?

Just seem the highlights lastnight, Carra should fall on his sword as he is just done. Torres looks completely disinterested. Shocking stuff but fair play to Blackpool, class save in the last minute. Cole should have had 2 goals from what I seen.
Liverpool will not go down IMHO but will not be that far up the table either.
How could you tell Torres was disinterested, he only played 9 mins and you said you only watched the highlights?
The body language did not look right, I wonder is there really much wrong with him?

Great win - some comeback from the Americans - and even though we've won - I've somehow managed to lose money to the boss with USA winning two of the three days.
Time for some celebration - but boy does Harrington have to be seriously concerned about his game currently. I said it before the cup began - but he is a different golfer to the one who won the majors.

He had 2 putts to win from 6ft in fairness
