QuoteWouldn't it be funny if the GAA took off with the Irish-Americans over in America and they suddenly had better GAA players than us?
OK, it's the truth. But Ireland also has the best me in the world too. As long as there are no other 'me's' in the world then my glorious status as me being 'the best me in the world' is safe.
Talk about the Big Fish/Little Pond concept taken to the extreme by this bitter hack.
But in terms of using it to classify the world class ability of the GAA "athletes" when benchmarked against international sports is moronic. Me thinks he has been watching too many Lucozade Sport ads on RTE.
I mean what next..."we have the best Showbands in the world"..."we have the best Marty Whelan in the world..."
Why is this person still on our screens. What does he have to offer? Why am I being taxed to pay his wages?

I think i'll use that.
In fairness, Setanta had a near flawless championship career.
City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.
O'Bama - "Eerah yeah, I'd say we can alright!"
G.O'Mahoney Trapattoni'll sort ém out!!
Imagine naming your kid after a TV channel!
I think he was in full flight and was frothing at the mouth at this stage and therefore said this rubbish. I dont think he woudl defend it if challenged on it. A slip of the tongue while getting worked up during a debate is what I would put it down to.
In Trap we trust
That's what I thought too. I cracked up when I heard it though.
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
Imagine if a group of Australian athletes started training with a Gaelic ball and ended up being better at the basic Gaelic Football skills than the IrishWhatever would the GAA do then

" I wish to God that someone would be able to block out the voices in my head for five minutes, the voices that scream, over and over again: "Why do they come to me to die?"
Those Aussie cricketers are far too violent - scrap the entire sport I say.The cricket crowd across the water (and here I suppose) just shrug and get on with it.
(Of course in cricket, the violence was the other way around)

Imagine not even getting paid for it.
The best GAA players must be one of Dunphys best quotes. Up there with the "tired & emotional". Did he mention out world class rugby players?
We are minnows of world sport unless you count 4 legged animals.
What, the drug-takers?Imagine not even getting paid for it.

If you're in the penalty area and don't know what to do with the ball, put it in the net and we'll discuss the options later
FORM IS TEMPORARY, CLASS IS PERMANENT
I didn't know there were skills involved in making stupid posts. But if there are, the last post offers good opportunity for examination.
Accurately kicking a round object towards a target isn't a skill? Well I'll be damned.

You've obviously forgotten about the eL First Division then...
Kom Igen, FCK...
Or you could call it a volley either.
