    I missed it on RTE and all my friends were telling me it was brilliant. It wasn't on the player, so thanks a million for the link. A brilliant watch, it makes me feel a bit sad about the current state of the game here. With the league starting this weekend, and with Nivea after pulling out there is no sponsorship. That coupled with the grant embargo placed on B.I by the government after the misappropriation of funds by the lads in Tallagh:rolleyes:, makes me wonder what the future for the game will be here in Ireland. I look forward to the league starting anyway, and I know that the old guard in B.I have been cleared out, and that good work is now going on. But basketball lost its momentum in Ireland in the late 80's, when it could have gone on to be a huge sport here, like it is in many Eastern European countries. Just makes me sad is all...
