Like folks from a lot of non-competitive counties, is it time for Cork GAA followers to pick an elite county or two to follow through the Summer?
Know a guy from Carlow who has had Kerry in the football and Kilkenny in the hurling for years ......lucky boy, he's had some great days.
Looking at what's left this year, Galway could well be in with a shot at the hurling - not too bad. Your other choices may be a bridge too far for you (at least in the first year you try it).
As to the football, again Galway has its attractions. No doubt a Galway title would be the people's choice (note the omens, anytime they have met Derry in the Summer, they have gone on to win the AI).
That be something though - 25 years after the Cork double, you'd see "your team" win it again. Happy out.
Galway for the double ? Or would you go with more certainty - Dubs and KK? You'd most likely have something to cheer about.
To hijack a phrase..... 21st Century thinking for 21st Century realities.
