I got those O'Muircheartaigh quotes fwded to me the other day, kind of a tonic as I got mad love for Sid Waddell still but his classic work is all in decades long gone

You;d need to have heard Míchéal's craggy tones first to get an idea though.

The downside is that they're playing maybe the greatest team of all time, apparently

Winning atm mind!
Still winning! Limerick look rattled. Have observed that they seem less the Man City of hurling than the Chelsea
― imago, Sunday, 6 February 2022 14:11 (two years ago) link
Uh oh. Limerick have found their groove. Still, for half an hour one could dream

How much do you enjoy the violence intrinsic to both the performance of and enjoyment of the sport, Louis?

I'm a football fan, so...a fair amount? Limerick are horrid bullies tho

Some fun thing to say in the pub while supping on a pint to seem knowledgeable:- any reference to “wristy hurling”- “of course that fella didn’t have an arse to his trousers when I was watching him play u21”- “ah sure it’s like watching the fucking ploughing”- “clash of the ash” you can only say this unironically if you’re ten drinks in OR Pat Spillane- “Henry Shefflin isn’t that great”- “personally I thought DJ (Carey) was better in those mastitis ads than he ever was in the noughties- “ah you’d be glad to see THEM* get bet all the same, wouldn’t you”I will update with more as they come to me, I was born the same year as my county won the all Ireland though so you can trust me definitely* them usually refers to Cork/Dublin/Kilkenny but can also refer to your local rivals from ten yards down the road
― mardheamac (gyac), Sunday, 6 February 2022 14:51 (two years ago) link
I'm informed the Henry Shefflin one might require updating. Extending it to the entire Limerick team and especially whoever their star player is
― imago, Sunday, 6 February 2022 14:54 (two years ago) link
Ty though, I intend on using the wristy hurling line a lot for the remaining 20 minutes
― imago, Sunday, 6 February 2022 14:55 (two years ago) link
The only other guy watching it in this pub is a Wexford fan too lol
― imago, Sunday, 6 February 2022 14:56 (two years ago) link
Goal Wexford! A thriller

Gerrin there you overhyped twats
― imago, Sunday, 6 February 2022 15:18 (two years ago) link
(this is probably Wexford's greatest result in...years?)
They’ll be selling strawberries on the roads tonight!

The All-Ireland Champions came to Wexford today they were talking about painting the Town Green. But By God The Boys of Wexford were having none of it. OUT ye Go. OUT OUT they Said— Buff Egan (@buff_egan) February 6, 2022
a fine sentiment
― imago, Sunday, 6 February 2022 16:22 (two years ago) link
How many times have you talked about the wristy hurling now
― mardheamac (gyac), Sunday, 6 February 2022 16:28 (two years ago) link
Everyone knows it's wristy
― Reader, I buried him (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 6 February 2022 16:34 (two years ago) link
I missed all this
this limerick team have greatness in them, dominant say in the way of that very physical, athletic and organised Mou Chelsea etc but the greatest of all time will fall between Kilkenny (pick yr era) and I'd guess (not a great knowledge of the historical brilliance of individual teams) Offaly, Tipp?

otm it is among my favorite thread titles on ILX.
― more difficult than I look (Aimless), Sunday, 6 February 2022 19:24 (two years ago) link
xp even I wouldn’t nominate Offaly despite the greatness of the 1998 side. Cork must be up there, Tipp certainly
― mardheamac (gyac), Sunday, 6 February 2022 20:59 (two years ago) link
I made sure to talk about wristy hurling very often yes
― Ár an broc a mhic (darraghmac), Sunday, 6 February 2022 17:01 (yesterday) bookmarkflaglink
lol notice how someone who'd never seen a game before picked up on this exact comparison after watching them for fifteen minutes
― imago, Monday, 7 February 2022 10:31 (two years ago) link
That was a pretty low scoring game yesterday, imago. Blustery winds a factor, id say. Limerick were bad yesterday, but sure look it, its early days in the league and we'd only a b team out.
― Saxophone Of Futility (Michael B), Monday, 7 February 2022 14:00 (two years ago) link
Deems hasnt a clue, I forsee a decade of brutal dominance for this Limerick team.
― Saxophone Of Futility (Michael B), Monday, 7 February 2022 14:02 (two years ago) link
My expectations are now unreasonably high for Wexford, lol
― imago, Monday, 7 February 2022 14:05 (two years ago) link
I dunno that 'they aren't definitely the greatest team of all time' is quite enough to hang that I haven't a clue on tbh
― Ár an broc a mhic (darraghmac), Monday, 7 February 2022 14:56 (two years ago) link
Especially from a lad who probably pronounced hurling with three syllables until yesterday
