Maybe this merits a thread of its own ... maybe not ...

that hand-in-the-face photograph!


Then we have four minutes of
a USA amateur athlete (amongst other things)
expressing himself on the subject of
"And Then There's Gaelic Football"

Have a look at Hurling Keberoxu.

I believe it is the fastest field sport in existence, highly skilled, free flowing and often high scoring.

One of the rules seems to be "thou shalt not kill" but apart from that it can be quite brutal at times.

But don't be fooled, that does not detract from the supreme skills of the players.

Yesterday saw the "All Ireland" senior final when Tipperary triumphed over long standing rivals Kilkenny 3-24 to 0-20

As a spectator sport it is second to none.
