Friday's rant

[Xanthippe]

Wouldn't be as in depth as espn scrum but was very handy for a quick check

Exactly - was very useful for keeping tackle, scrum, lineout, turnover etc charts up to date

You keep charts?

Yep - and yes, I know it’s sad

Mystery N's appearing in pacific players' names.

Are you talking about the Fijian fast food chicken spicer?

Him and many others

f%~king kite surfers, yeah you're cool, reckless and you dont fear for your own safety, but you f%~king tw@ts are now risking the lives of the RNLI volunteers

[icebaby]

Comments on the journal under the Ibrahim story. Wtf?
Casual facism.

The same folk on there calling him an egyptian terrorist who the government shouldnt have wasted so much time on when there's more to worry about within our borders, will be the first to comment if he does find himself vilified, marginalised or radicalised.

Welcome home Ibrahim!

We're so good at casual racism. We moved here from the US mid 80s. I'd adults say Yank go home to me and they weren't even Richard Harris
I have lived here nearly all my life and still some people don't accept me as Irish *even with Irish parents. I can only imagine what non white, non European immigrants and their children are subjected to.

Now granted most people are decent, unfortunately it only takes a few to sully your view.

Comments on the journal under ....

I think that's your mistake there. Cesspool. I can't believe that people are really in general that horrible. I don't meet them. Or at least they don't behave that way in front of me.

If you enjoy those comments try any BBC news article on their website covering Brexit, yikes.

Never ever read the comments.

Never ever read the comments.

Precisely. Nothing to be gained from it.

Gary Sliotars sentence. Honest to god.

The bizarre eulogy to Tom Humphries in the Irish Times.

It reads like most of it was written years ago in case he died and then they just threw in some facts about his dismissal at the end so as to have mentioned the case without actually commenting on how despicable he is. The comments about his passion for the GAA and its people without any mention of how he then debased that by using them as a vehicle for his abuse is nothing short of appalling.

His sentence is a joke as well.

I was ranting for so long that you beat me to it. Absolutely pathetic. I would love to know the process that brought about that article. Did Watterson volunteer so that nobody would do a hatchet job? Even if he still think he's a good guy (as David Walsh seems to), the article is still a disgrace.

How do they manage now? Many of the under 25s in South Dublin sound like they just walked of the set of a US sitcom.

I know. The town centre in Dundrum is where you find many of them, funnily a young Robo had to run from Skins back in the day in the very fields where the town centre now stands. Well, I ran until was 17

And then you were a prop and you couldn't run any more.
