    Lol. Didn't take long.

      Westmeath are too weak. Crumbling to dust here.

        Blinked and a second goal.

        Now everyone switch to tennis where there is some entertainment.

          Dublin errors all over the pitch and still cruising. Absolutely no urgency going forward either. I know it's hard to take such a poor team seriously but Dublin will surely have bigger tests from here so should be doing everything right imo. But at the moment they're not interested.

            You can only beat what's put infront of you unfortunately. Ten points down in a Final and Westmeath are still sitting deep and not committing men forward. One man up competing on a 45 a couple of minutes ago ffs.

              Yep, just switched there! Always sad to see decent crowds in Croker left wanting because of the poor contest being offered.

                I know. It wasn't meant to sound like a pop a Dublin but it reads that way. Job done for them. They can do no more. Sure even the commentators are struggling to come up with things to say. I don't often say this but bring on the hurling.

                  thought it odd Jim Gavin didn't change it up more in running in the first half. Paul Flynn was having a shocker.

                    I think an average dublin training session would have more intensity then this.

                      On a positive note for Westmeath, that number 6 looks like a serious player.

                      Great line there from the commentator. The Dubs are singing, great supporters, completely unbiased. They don't care who Dublin beat lol.

                                            Hurling is fairly poor so far anyway. Messy game. Is there not a roof over centre court?

                                                If I say one of the teams in the Munster hurling final have the Big Heart (tm) will that be putting the BBV curse on them?

In the UFC, if he can bear the pain from the broken nose,he can carry on. although plenty of lesser injuries would have the doctor stop the fight in a heartbeat if the potential for more damage was obvious (torn ear, severely cut eyelid, etc).

                                                                                              Rory actually gave up in the fifth round from the pain. simple jab had him fall to the floor in agony.

If you'd said Dublin footballer instead of hurler I would have believed your post. But I'd hazard a guess that Dublin have never played Armagh in hurling, not in the last century anyway.

He went for the submission cause he wanted to finish the fight as he was already knackered, and knew he wouldn't last.

                                                                                                            no credit on this one m8, mendes took the fight for money and money only.

I was a bit mortified at what I thought was a joke by my father but it quickly became apparent it wasn't when he held the microphone up to his ear like a phone, but eventually after we stopped laughing at him we got it where it should be. He's 84 though so we'll let him off.

                                                                                                                Obligatory pic below from a creepy graveyard. I'm not dressed as funkily as DP was, but I couldn't carry it off I'd say.

                                                                                                                Tom got married? wtf else have I missed? Congrats Tom.

He went for the submission cause he wanted to finish the fight as he was already knackered, and knew he wouldn't last.

                                                                                                                  no credit on this one m8, mendes took the fight for money and money only.

                                                                                                                          I didn't think it was stopped to early. The line set for referees is that the downed fighter must defend themselves intelligently. What mendes was doing once he hit the ground was only putting himself in a position to be hit in the head even more by McGregor because all he did was cover up and then started to take further shots.

                                                                                                                          Also, that was one of the best UFC events I've ever watched. Felt bad that Jeremy Stephens didn't get a bonus for his awesome flying knee.
