Replying To Doylerwex: "This conversation has taken a turn. That depends on whether or not you believe Mary was born with original sin which is the essence of my point.
We are all sinners.
I don't agree with the second part. How many people do you know that don't do bad stuff?
Try as I might I'm committing at least one of the 7 deadly sins every week." This was playing on my mind a bit so I had to reply.
Yes, I do believe that Mary was born without original sin, if she was born with original sin she couldn't have become the mother of her son Jesus.

Replying To preddan: "was just thinking earlier this evening tommy doyle when in his prime was one of the best full backs in the country and still surely had a few years left to give for westmeath, and there now i just see hes retired, a massive massive loss for westmeath hurling and a void left difficult to fill. i wish him all the best but a sad day" A wonderful servant to Westmeath hurling.For me between 2016 and 2022 he should have won at least 1 All star.
His dedication to the Maroon jersey was unsurpassed and we will miss him massively.
Rumours also about other players as well.
Won't be an easy start for Kevin O Brien

Replying To eoinog: "I doubt if you were at the game. Eleven point winning margin certainly flattered Moycullen . With eleven minutes left on the clock the margin was just 3 point. Gaels had an easy opportunity for a point but they inexplicably hit the post and they also had an excellent opportunity for a goal but it was the wrong player the chance fell to and the keeper got a toe to the ball and deflected it out for a 45. Missed opportunities !!!! As alluded to by another poster the pitch yesterday was also very heavy. All our hopes now rest with Coolaney this Saturday or our Connacht adventure is over for this year" Flattering or not most wouldn't call a 11 point beating where one of Moycullen players scored more than the whole Shamrock Gaels team as a missed opportunity.
Fine margin contest and losing narrowly is a missed opportunity and that twice happened with Tourlestrane in recent years against Mayo opposition.
Wouldn't be as heavy of a pitch as Markievicz Park last year whereby the pitch needed to be closed and redone.
Rested Coolaney playing a Kilmeena side off the back of extra time with a 6 day turnaround so a possible opportunity there.

Very hard to call some of this weeks games, especially Leinster and in particular Naomh Mairtin Portarlington and The Downs v Tullamore. Brigids Ballina also a tricky one to call.

Replying To Oddball: "I see John Twaddle is managing Athlone next year.
They seem to have a good batch of young players coming through.
Will he awaken the sleeping giant in Westmeath?!!" Managing Athlone, sleeping giants in Westmeath. What has this got to do with Longford football matters which this forum is for.

Replying To TheFlaker: "That's grand. We have differing opinions and I don't think your cat example is great either but that's ok too. I would love to think there is a god and our life goes on but I don't and i think I am a logical thinker. I am glad people find comfort in times of need and if faith in something helps them then that is a positive thing. I gave up on anything church related due to all the abuse scandals. The same church still protects and hides those evil men today. The child sex abuse scandals should have been enough for the church to collapse." I have absolutely no time for the Catholic Church.
I don't have enough time to list out all the reasons for that statement either.

Replying To B&G: "Managing Athlone, sleeping giants in Westmeath. What has this got to do with Longford football matters which this forum is for." Is John Twaddle not a Longford Gael?
So you are trying to tell me, that anything that happens to a Longford person or team outside the county should not be spoke of in this forum?!!!
I think it deserves a mention!!
