Why would someone want to know what the Irish think about anything?




The international rules games are completely pointless - like all sport and most other things in life. The issue seems to be how obvious it is that it's pointless. It highlights the general pointlessness of things, which scares people who make a living from writing about it. If people catch on then they'll stop paying attention to them. So rubbishing the game is really just a self defense mechanism.

I reckon if plotted a graph of how seriously a commentator/journalist/tv personality thinks they are compared to how much they hate the game, you'd get some sort of inversely proportional thing going.

I bet Hutchy hates it.
