Dublin GAA

How do I put this without making me sound like a maniac!  I fupping LOVE it!  I've ALWAYS loved it.  However, I must be honest and admit to following the Royals (Meath) when I was younger as my Dad is a Royal and I used to go to Croke Park with him and I just shouted for whoever he shouted for. 

As I got older and got sense however, my allegiance switched to the county of my birth and that is where the obsession started.  I get so worked up over every single match be it league or championship, challenge or shield match.  If we lose, especially to Meath or Tyrone, a dark cloud descends on me for at least a couple of hours.  Last year when we lost to Cork, I was inconsolable because we had it.  It was there for the taking and we blew it by fouling needlessly.  One of the best atmospheres to be had it climbing the steps to Hill 16 and joining the rest of the blue army singing Come on You Boys in Blue.  The adrenalin flows and the heart races in anticipation of "could this be the year we do it"!?  Of course, every year we think this could be our year but sure how bad is that.  Hope....it's a wonderful feeling. So on the night before the beginning of another NFL......Up the Dubs!!!
