A Mars Bar, or Just Pleased to See Me?
Talking Balls CommentsThe PR blurb from Mars tells Talking Balls that every sports star had a different way of relaxing the night before the-game, with many of the younger stars using i-pods and DVD’s. Former Munster Rugby Captain Anthony Foley rather unusually stated he relaxed by “walking to and back from his local-petrol station”. Looper.
Former Cork star turned pundit, Tomas Mulcahy stated that Cork hurlers used to relax the night before an All-Ireland by-spending a night together at the dogs in Shelbourne Park! Rather predictably hurling machine Seán Óg Ó hAilpín relaxed by “performing stretches listening-to my i-pod”.
And while most people stated that their ideal way of spending down time was – holidaying with loved ones, some were brave enough to admit their real-fantasy.
Joe Canning admitted that should he lead Galway to All-Ireland-success, a holiday in the Caribbean with Halle Berry would be his ideal way-to relax, while Seán Óg whom many thought only used his balls for pucking, revealed that Eva Mendes on any Island in the Pacific would make his day. Pucking about, under the setting sun. Bliss.
Watching Eva bend, lift and shape to strike would cause any hurler to straighten up his stick.
