Amazing footage! 1961 All Ireland Football Final Offaly v Down (Part of the First Half) youtu.be/dcSsY0fza3I?si… via @YouTube

"The last three times Cork have come out of Munster as champions; we’ve fallen at the penultimate hurdle. Spectacularly in 2014, acceptably in 2017, tragically in 2018." #corkvdublin #corkgaa #cork #GAA #hurling colemanajohn.blog/2025/07/04/up-…

@cormicaneoghan Really great piece, Eoghan. Very well done.

Attended last week's GPA Pride brunch not as a sportswriter but as a gay man. And so I never intended to write about the day. But such was the courage displayed by the men present, I’d be letting myself down if I didn’t use my platform to follow their lead irishexaminer.com/sport/gaa/arid…

New York have high hopes ahead of Monaghan battle New York compete in an All-Ireland hurling competition for the first time in almost 20 years when they take on Monaghan in the Lory Meagher semi-final today, and expectations are high in the Big Apple. rte.ie/sport/hurling/…

Ah, what a county @Offaly_GAA

16 pts same winning margin as Cork loss v Limerick under JBM in ‘96 and also the ‘21 All Ire final. Limerick ravenous.

@kearney_phil @KarolDillon8 Thanks. I believe -- in my layman's way -- I was the first to notice this phenomenon. Happened by noticing Colm Cooper and James O'Donoghue both signing an autograph with their right hand.

@pmosullivan67 @KarolDillon8 Autographs - very clever way to capture cross laterality in kicking sports. Thanks for sharing.

Welcome to my world. One of the reasons my long suffering supervisor @kearney_phil has to rein me in. Phil Mickelson plays left handed because he wanted to mirror his dad. Rafa Nadal's father insisted on him playing left handed due to the competitive advantage hypothesis.

@hattonsgrace @CahairOKane1 @KarolDillon8 And Cónal Keaney and Richie Power Jr and John 'Bubbles' O'Dwyer and Paolo Maldini and Paddy McBrearty and...

@CahairOKane1 @KarolDillon8 Dan Carter the same

I've been down some rabbit holes in my time but none as deep or as interesting as this. What do David Clifford, Lionel Messi and Diego Maradona have in common? All left-footed, but also right-handed. Spoke to @KarolDillon8 about his fascinating research irishnews.com/gaa/gaelic-foo…

@CahairOKane1 @KarolDillon8 Yes, I guess I was. Think I first clocked the phenomenon around 2010. Yer man has got a doctorate out of about 500 words I wrote for Examiner. Funny world.

@pmosullivan67 @KarolDillon8 You were away ahead of the curve there PM!

Important to acknowledge that today marks 7 year since the passing of MES, without whom this podcast wouldn’t exist, of course.

The Blue Bell, 53 Fossgate, #York YO1 9TF 🍻 Established in 1798, The Blue Bell is York’s smallest and most beautiful pub. Last decorated in 1903 and retaining all of its Edwardian charm, a drink in The Blue Bell is a step back in time.

Report on a Hurling match between players from Wapping and St. Giles at Kennington Common in London on the 25th of July 1814 in front of huge crowd of 20,000 spectators #hurlinghistory

Report of the Countess of Northumberland being entertained by a game of Hurling near the Curragh on the 14th of October 1763. The Chester Courant newspaper described the sport as the “most noble and manly exercise in the world”. #hurlinghistory

Elon Musk hates it when this video gets shared.

Anybody who thinks the world isn’t messed up should take a look at this bill for a range of eye-wateringly expensive whiskeys, purchased at the Fife Arms in Braemar on the night before Hogmanay. Wonder what they bought to usher in the New Year! Thanks to ⁦@Ian_Fraser⁩
