The GAA in World Terms
USA = Kerry - Utterly Arrogant and motivated by greed.
If they suffer the slightest injustice the whole world hears about it. Leader sees himself as bit of a visionary, most see him as bit of a tyrant.
Al Qaeda = Meath - Thugs who like to take out opponents behind the play.
Capable of upsetting just about anyone. Leader is a paranoid nutter.
As a major contribution to the GAA's 125th Birthday in 2009, TG4 today launched its major new 10 part television documentary series chronicling the social and cultural history of the Association.
There is a cheap line about the All-Ireland final being a contest between the two best teams in the country. It usually is, but not always. Cast your mind back to a time when Ulster and Connacht matched up at semi-final stage in the 70s and 80s (every three years) and it's pretty reasonable to suggest the lazy one-liner did not apply.
By Eugene McGee
Many sectors of the GAA have lost the run of themselves as regards money and it might take the present recession to restore financial sanity. Some county boards and clubs have been getting involved in financial dealings and transactions that are far removed from the ideals of GAA founders.
