    Snide remark in my opinion, and not funny in the slightest.

    Let's set aside our differences and celebrate his success as an Irish man.

    Regardless of whether or not he's a bit rough, he's still a sliver medalist Olympian. Respect where it's due for that feat.

    You'd think we'd be happy for any bit of metal that flashed before or heads.
    For the most part though, people don't think like that, it's only the old bitches in the corner that speak the loudest.
