The Budweiser ban is one of the most beautiful moments I’ve ever seen in a major sporting event
I was watching a documentary about the hosting of the World Cup from April or May and the Head Honcho said at the time there would be no alcohol sold inside Stadiums so I dont get it
I cant remember ever having a pint at any match i ever went to tbh, plenty before and after alright!
Outsourcing of our security to the RAF, those papers he referred to and cybersecurity concerns.
Every time the Russians enter our airspace there's a few lads on Twitter jizzing themselves about all the planes that we should be buying to protect ourselves. It's nonsense. It would be billions and years of work for a minimal deterrent.
For as long as I can remember there's been outside actors and "experts" pushing for Ireland to boost it's spending, and I really don't think it's for our own benefit.

I guess 'mad vlads' plan with the electric network is to create overwhelming mass immigration for Ukraine in order to cause EU social angst?
I would have thought mostly 'murder as many Ukrainian civilians as possible via destroying their heating'. It's a purely visceral reaction to losing Kherson. You saw the same after the sinking of the Moskva and the attack on the Kerch Bridge.
There's no plan.

I decided to cease horsey backing. I always put the wrong key of two in my front door . I know i should mark them but too lazy plus i thought its 50/50 to get it right. I rsrely get the right one 1st . With this kind of running , no chance at the horsies.
What you need is a good list of biases to underpin your horse picks. Mine are:
never back a gray horse
never back a horse trained by Joseph O'Brien
never back a female jockey (this one not ageing too well, FU Rachel Blackmore)
never back a horse trained by Alan King
never back a horse at Aintree or Punchestown that finished in the money at Cheltenham
This should aid your selections no end. On the horsey theme, just finished a great little book - The Big Horse by Joe McGinnis.

Yeah I don’t think that’s what is being called for by those who are somewhat rational, more like;
With barely 700 staff, the Irish Air Force (known as the Aer Corps) lacks the capability even to track aircraft across Irish skies. Irish parliamentarian Tom Clonan, a former Army officer, noted that Ireland is “the only country in the EU that cannot monitor its own airspace by primary radar.
Elizabeth Holmes gets 11 years for theranos fraud! Great result!
Not enough jail time imo. I didn't follow the court case but I used read a lot about the background over the years. Was there some sort of deal or co-operation in the end?

No deal that I'm aware of , she was found guilty on 4 counts of fraud (max jail was 20 years), and prosecution was looking for 15 years, plus fines, so 11 years seems like quite a big win. One of the bigger sentences for a white collar crime in the US
Pretty fecking infuriated that it's 2022 an I'm still listing to details of child sex abuse carried out and covered up by religious orders.
Imagine if you will a private company CEO being invited onto the airwaves to discuss the wide spread and systemic child sex abuse within the company. Archbishop on the radio tis morning discussing the in's and out of the Spiritan scandal. Had to break off the interview to pause for The Angelus at noon
At the very least the company would be bared for trading and the guards would have raided it.
Funny how we can get on the high horse about the impact of religion on life in Qatar when that was us just 30 years ago.

Little Ukrainian girl in my sons class . Was kinda moving at the school gates as she tearfully hugged her teacher clutching on to her Student of the week trophy. She was bidding them all farewell as she was going home . Cant help but fear for her. Putin isnt finished yet. So many kunts moaning about the refugees. . Poxy world we have made for these kids .
Bit late now obviously, but when this place was built a little over 5 years ago, I had to specifically ask for cabling to be run to every room, so there are ports all over the place. that covered plate probably just is for coax I'd say, despite what you were told. Let us know anyway once you open to inspect it.
Took off a few panels now and you were right oh wise one! Jusy a coax to every room. Must ask wtf they were on about since I'd already bought the house before I asked, just asking would I need to run cable, so there was no reason to lie.
Not sure how much it would cost to get cat in every room now but also dont want to be digging up the whole place. I only really care about my office upstairs, perhaps coax to router is that a thing? I'm googing and there is some Moca thing you can get? Speeds ok?

You should be able to use the coax as a chasing cable to pull cat 6 through.
Nope. Have childhood friends who are in the naval service and the army. That’s about it.
I vaguely remember thinking that you'd been boozing for the first time in your life, several years ago. And then realised it was just sleep deprivation from having kids.

But isn't that mainly because most of your matches are under 8s soccer.
U8 is Sunday morning and obv BYOB, but i would say ive been at 100s of matches and bar the uncles sneaking pints out at HT at Milltown in 80s cant remember seeing beer at any match really. Im sure AJ will correct me and I've never been at Premium Level for a football game but it literally wouldnt enter my head during a match to have a beer
Some issues with my bank account over weekend so went onto twitter and stuck in #boi to see if it was a widespread problem. Wont be making that mistake again!

Odd pint at half time is the height of what I’d have too- GAA and FAI have it right not allowing drink out in the stands.
obv IRFU don’t really have a choice as most fans at rugby games are event junkies there for the Instagram photos and you would need to be tanked to sit through turgid shite like last night.
id say it gets fairly fucking annoying getting up for lads going to bar and jacks constantly, can be pretty bad at concerts
Will you ever fuck off with that shite... you are easily one of the worst posters on here for this-Pokerhand

Seems that is the plan. Or at least the suspected plan, according to the Ukranians.
Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has accused Russia of trying to destabilise the country by forcing millions to flee westwards, creating a refugee crisis for the European Union.
That was my pick for the day on FTW and ended up picking four for combo exactas and trifectas.
Coming to the last I have 4 of the first five covered including my 50/1 outsider... Ah feck it here comes Townend to spoil the party... ah well maybe I can hold for the exacta...at least I have the 1.01 winner backed.. FML
Lads would ye enjoy / watch / bother with Horse racing if it wasn't just all about the betting?
Not being pious, am quite aware this is a poker forum
I rarely bet on horses. Gold cup, king george and grand national are the 3 races I bet on but I sit down and watch it regularly on telly. Like today, Punchestown was on. Sat down to watch it and had no bet. Just interested in it.
Hardly likely to change the minds of any of the fools who were foaming at the mouth saying that it's just a harmless line from a song but you would have to be really crass not to cop on to what it really means.

Vile.

What's your point and what has it got to do with getting in the face of someone whose father was shot by the IRA and celebrating the people who did it?

Yep check out her buddies with blood on their hands . and who she celebrates.
Last spamming of this competition before the weekend. They're taking "engagement" into account when announcing the winner and we sit top of the pile so far. A like would be hugely appreciated.
Thanks to the IPB heads that already liked it.
SPOILER
We did not win this competition. A guy who had a load of the pros like his stuff got over the line ahead of us.
But i was hustling hard and where there's a will there's a way. Won a package and will be playing the $10,400 WPT World Championship in the Wynn in 3 weeks time.
All the likes from here were appreciated. We were the closest competition to the winner which says a lot for some random Irish nobody.
