Limerick played Tipperary today in the Senior Hurling Champioship semi final which was held in Croke Park, Dublin. Our expectations were low (the team's performances have been pretty muted all year) but since they managed, by some twist of fate, to get this far we thought it only right to get a little excited and watch the game this morning. Eoin was (more or less) dressed in the Limerick colors (green and white) - his real Limerick jersey as yet too big for him - for his first 'big' hurling game.
We settled down at home to watch it (in our comfy chairs) and I am glad he didn't understand what was going on - Limerick were annihilated! Hopefully by the time he is old enough to know Limerick will have improved! At least I can empathise with the long suffering Chicago Cubs fans!
