    Frankie, was the cardigan a forfeit from a bet you lost?

    I never lose bets.

    Were you there? :confused:

    I thought that might confuse you. Nah, I opened the ustream link you posted somewhere for a couple of minutes before I tottered off to bed on Friday night. There seemed to be some technical issues when I clicked on but the tunes were good.

    Haha, I feel like a total dick. Seems the Dalai Lama didn't want a Theocratic dictatorship either...

    Must research better in the future before getting on my medium sized horse...

    Came across this repeat on Newstalk last night on my way home from work. it's Brendan O'Neill - a journalist who is the Dalai Lama biggest critic and strangely enough he brings up some very interesting points but when you listen to someone who does not understand Buddhist beliefs is very easy to criticize i feel. short debate but worth a listen.
    thought you might be interested :)

    I'd defo agree that anyone who goes to watch any LOI football is a true fan - sadly, I'm too much of a purist to go and watch that. The standard is just too poor.

    Sadly it will never get any better because it doesn't get the support. I don't go for the standard of football, I go because I love my club you cant beat the passion. I seen a league title and promotion been taken from us with the last kick of the last game of the season against Limerick and Ive also witnessed us draw with Deportivo La Coruna in the 3rd qualifying round of the champions league, a game we should have won.

    I'm not expecting people to start turning up in their droves, but everything has to be done to encourage a few more punters through the gates and to be honest I couldn't care who they supported (now Sporting Franchise are gone). Maybe one day Mr.Delany and the FAI could show the same passion thousands of people like me have for our league. I for one hopes he shows up in waterford on thursday so we can wip out this.

    He banned us from singing a song about him, so a banner and song was required. :)

    Anyone hear anything about the 'prominent sports journalist in a relationship with a 14 year old girl' story? (not naming names, it's an Irish broadsheet journo)

    Read the first report from the Indo a week or two ago - was very obvious who it was back then. One of the tabloids named him at the weekend - not only a journalist but a mentor and coach to a underage camoige team - the ramifications from this are going to be fücking huge…


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,401 ✭✭✭jtsuited


    It's pretty messed up.

    The moral of the story is, don't trust journalists who openly detest rugby on a monthly basis.

    to be fair...........the only people to have explicitly named him have been tabloids (And the worst kind of tabloids at that), so officially he hasn't really been named.

    Not oficially named until a "proper" newspaper names him?

    pretty much tbh. although it's fairly clear it's him (and has been since the story broke), I wouldn't call one of the tabloids who regularly just print out and out lies naming him as officially 'named'.

    In fact he's not officially named until the Gardai name him. In which case you'll see 'proper' papers name him.

    Well, everybody knows who it is but boards probably can't risk having him name here until he has been charged and named by every other news outlet.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,087 ✭✭✭Clanket


    Not a big fan of tabloids myself, but they rarely print stories like this without some evidence. They'd be cleaned out in court if they made up something like that.

    In fairness they do. I was watching a programme following people who were suing the tabloids for stories published about them (Uri Geller was one of them) and the amount of lies the tabloids were telling was outrageous. Usually these cases are settled out of court with a retraction written as small as possible somewhere buried in the paper.

    and they're regularly in court over stuff like this.
    My point was he hasn't been officially named. A tabloid acting as if he has is no proof to the contrary. I know it's pedantic but with the press (all of the press, not just the tabloids) and the out and out bullsh1t they come out with on a regular basis, the devil is in the detail.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,087 ✭✭✭Clanket


    I know they tend to make stuff up, but they rarely do with stories this big. They've accused someone of being a paedophile. If they are wrong they will be sued for an absolutely huge amount.

    Terrible story anyway. There must be something in the water in Ireland with the amount of paedos we've produced in the last 100 years.

    Yup there is......although I don't think it's in the water exactly.

    It's called Catholic sexual repression. By teaching that all sexuality is the tool of the devil.

    Didn't see it in the Indo. Haven't been really keeping abreast of current affairs recently...

    I thought to myself when I read your post no way did she actually say that. Just found the direct quotation and she actually DID say:

    "There can be no viler act, apart from homosexuality and sodomy, than sexually abusing innocent children".

    Wow, just wow.

    Do you know I was thinking of that exact story when I posted about the other one. They'll never be forgiven in Liverpoool for it. I'd say their sales there were practically wiped out overnight. And they were made apologise for it very fast.

    That was probably the single worst incident of a paper making up a story. It's a bit unfair to compare it to the Sunday World.

    The ONLY time I'm ever exposed to tabloids is when I'm getting a chinese take away and there's one on the counter and I've got five minutes to kill.

    I genuinely cannot see a reason why anybody with an IQ of 80 or above would actually buy one.

    One of the reasons I quickly dropped any leftist idealism years ago was seeing the sales figures of all the papers in Ireland and seeing The Star as number one by a long shot.

    MMR Vaccine causes autism? Antioxidants in Red Wine prevent cancer? Saying a few fans were acting the maggot is nothing compared to the out and out misinformation printed by papers on a daily basis.

    A few years ago, an Irish tabloid was writing about a friend (of a friend) of mine and quoted her dad as saying something about recent events......Her father had died 15 years previously.

    Went to a solicitor who said 'just ring them and explain the situation and your cheque will be in the post by Monday'.
