Good one. Yelling at your shoes. I was thinking the same thing. Probably where it got it's name a couple of thousand years ago. Nutin like wielding a big oak stick with a buzz on.

I miss when NESN used to carry games on weekend mornings.

They had gaelic football also, which is another great sport to watch - kind of a combo of soccer, rugby and hurling. There are a few gaelic football clubs in boston. I talked my way into a game one night when I was drunk and chickened out when they called me the next weekend - those guys were f***ing huge and looked like they didn't even know what pain was.

I use to play for a team in the Bronx played gaelic football and hurling on the weekends in Gaelic park my brother and i were the only two non irish guys allowed in there.The best part was the drinking after the games that was always a blast plus just about everyone in there was speaking gaelic LOL.

This is hilarious. It is funny watching grown men do that. I especially like the head butts when both guys fall.
