Hurl Wars
Talking Balls No Comments »
It was a period of civil war.
Rebel spacers, striking from a hidden ?
base, have won their first victory ?
against the evil GAA empire
During the battle, Rebel players revealed ?
secret plans to the Empire’s ?
ultimate weapon, the County Board, a ?
group of mortals with enough ?
power to destroy an entire planet.
Master against pupil,
brother against brother,
player against coach.
And still it continues.
Last year it was the men of Cork and Gerald Mc. . .
Now Justin McCarthy seems to have learned the bitter lesson from Waterford. Get your revenge thinks he, half the more senior players on the panel he axes. In Clare, the return of the Jedi or the Geriatric. Mike McNamara seeks to replicate what regimes he used in what seems like a different galaxy, far away.
Yes for hurlers, the Force is with Them alright. . . with their light sabre-like sticks. Size matters not. Look at them. Judge Tommy Walsh by his size, do you? Hmm? Hmm. And well you should not. For his ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the Rock, everywhere, yes.
Yes, a Jedi’s strength flows from the Force. But beware of the dark side. Anger, fear, aggression; the dark side of the Force are they. Easily they flow, quick to join you in a fight. If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will, as it did the apprentive.
That was part of the problem, Gerald Mc didn’t understand the Power of the Force. And look what happened there. Watch Justin, and Mike Mac and learn from Yoda, the Master. (That’s Cody, to us mortals by the way).
Last year, Hurl Wars.This year, Attack of the Clones.
