I'd disagree with you there, I think that's a bit outlandish, but I can see why some of his stuff would get people wound up. Like I said, taking the worst elements of football and comparing them to the best elements of gaelic games is simply not a fair comparison. Yes, hurling is a brilliant sport played by people in their spare time and yes, football is dominated by over-paid, under-talented egotistical scuts. But football also has elements of greatness and hurling and gaelic football have a nastier side.

That said, if you read much of his stuff you'll see an obvious dislike for much of the unpleasantness that comes with the GAA and a love of football, athletics and golf.
