The word on the street peeps is Anxiety.Tipp V Killkenny All Ireland final day and it's RAINING.Tipp hurlers are skillful they pass the ball to hand and won't be suited to wet slippery conditions.The Cats have claws and skill but are glorified Mullekers and will win a doughty dogfight,they play just beyond the the limits of fair physicality and get away with it.They are the better all round team, the greatest team I've ever seen.They are at their Zenith or possibly by one degree starting to wane, on the cusp of the way down.The fall will come inevitably,like all falls there will be no warning but will it be today?Tipp are the pretenders a young team tremendously skilful ,in the ascendency and the team most likely to inherit the Killkenny crown. I'm in bits that I couldn't go but now it's raining it probably would have killed me anyway.Can't wait for the match, I hope Tipp put it up to them physically as they did in the league final, I hope that they win but will be happy if they lose by less than 4 points.Their time will come ,I'm just not sure it will be today but still they have a chance, get stuck in, stay with the cats, Mark shefflin like a limpet, get Lar Corbett into the scoring early,hang in there till the last 10 mins and they might pull it off.Looking forward to the match, don't spare the timber lads Tipp abu!!! And above all else may the best team LOSE

tfe - you've seen that before - watched the best team lose - it's worth a soaker to see that!!!!! steven
It's a nerve wracking afternoon both sides of the water TFE. My husband is watching Gloucester (his team) play Bath at Rugby. The only certainty is that whatever the outcome a couple of pints will be needed either to drown the sorrows or celebrate the victory. Makes you wonder why they bother to play at all really! Good luck Tipperary and Gloucester.
Hurling is a foreign language to me TFE - but when we came over to Clare some years ago it was finals time and the streets were festooned with banners. It is always about this time of year because it was certainly early Sept when we came.
Am all geared up for tomorrow's poem.
Is that you on the right in your new header (by hook or by crook I shall find out what you look like if only by a process of elimination!)
There is so much energy in anxiety...don't you wish you could run electricity off it just to drain it? I know I do.
It sure is Steven, thanks! :)
How did Gloucester go on Heather, did they win, do you know yet or is hubby still in the bar?
Hurling is a foreign language to most people Weaver, especially Kilkenny.The saddest thing s that it's all over for another year.My real portrait is coming soon, specially for you dear weaver.You're in for a royal treat.It will save time on the process of elimination, as there are literally, ooh?, hundreds of people in the world.
Ps Weaver it surely must be a long long time ago if Clare had anything to put banners up about ! ;)
ArtSparker,my anxiety would power the entire country if I could be hooked up to the national grid.
