    that was sorta my point as well... France LOST the world cup on that night... Ireland only lost a game, and so they can still win the tournament.. its a defeat but its not like Ireland have walked out of the competition :rolleyes:
    it is not the competition itself but the grandslam that everyone wants to win. yes we can win the 6nations on points, but who wants that? we wanted to beat everyone and prove we are the second best team in the world. cant wait till we face england, they will be slaughtered like the chickens they are :D

    well that's how it felt to me :confused: lol, I love the way you all seem to know how I feel.

    but you said "To compare, for us it was like France losing the world cup final to Italy."

    I love the way you seem to know how the French felt after that game :rolleyes:
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Exactly! Yesterday we lost what WOULD have been our first grand slam in 60 years... and that's WITHOUT mentioning the history even.
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable

    well even the French I was talking to last night compared the two. That was where I got the comparison from. When they saw what we were like they said they understand how we feel BECAUSE of that match!

    You never said it was how you personally felt,you simply said:"To compare,for us it was like France losing the World cup final to Italy".Now I could be wrong but I thought the us you referred to was us as a country. All is not lost,that's all I'm saying.They could still do it.Be positive,for fucks sake!

    seriously can you believe that? :eek: Like if I were English it would have been ok? Or I would have got them out maybe is what he meant :confused: . My friend had a run in with one Saturday night also who actually pulled her top down :eek: and put his face 'in' :eek: . I think he got a slap too and was kicked out of the pub.

    The people I was talking to last night were in agreement... and I'd say most of the 81 whatever thousand were too. I'm comparing FEELINGS here... there ARE no stats :rolleyes:

    And they CAN'T still do the grand slam.

    I did'nt mean they could still do the Grand slam,do you think I'm fucking stupid or something? And what's all this stuff about the history?Yeah it was historical up to and including the kick off,but after that it's just like any other game,as will the England game be just like any other six nations game.The historic decision was made and yesterday history was made,and I'm not ashamed to say I was proud to be an Irish man,but we have to let it go now.Ireland now play at croke park,great,Why keep bringing up the past?It's time we moved on now,what's done is done.

    Huh? What the fuck are you talking about? :rolleyes: YOUR opinion and how YOU feel about it? Yes the occasion was forgotten about once teh game started BUT it was still a game we were supposed to win. Jesus, just cos you're able to get over it doesn't fucking mean everyone else can. It was heartbreaking, like somebody fucking died. :rolleyes: I just don't get some people.

    Do you not think you're overreacting slightly?"like somebody died"?Are you for real?Roll your fucking eyes all you want,that last comment was pathetic and immature.I'm glad you don't get me cos I sure as fuck don't get you.It was a game,we lost.GET OVER IT!!

    it was a fucking game of sport... a GAME!!! men chasing and throwing a funny shaped ball... big deal... death doesnt enter the equation, and if it does then people need some serious help!!
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Right well obviously you two feel fucking different about it - great for you :rolleyes: (yes I'll do that all I want). No need to keep fucking going on about it :confused: THAT'S what I don't get. So YOU'RE not heartbroken, I, and many others, am! What's so fucking hard to understand?

    nothing... your reaction to a game is hard to understand but i do understand it.

    remember it was you who started threads saying it was an historical day for ireland... maybe it should have been "its an historical day for irish rugby" as i think Ireland getting rid of english rule is deemed more "historical".

    you are the one equating it to someone dying... which verges on the side of nonsenical.. i've watched scotland at football amtches, so i know what heartache is :p i've just never equated it to someone dying... yeah sure its pretty annoying but i've never lost sleep and i've never even let my mood be down the following day!

    its a fucking game

    Yes there are MORE historical days :rolleyes: doesn't mean something isn't historical cos it's not the MOST historical :rolleyes:

    Anyway, I apologise dunk :rolleyes: why don't you go ahead and tell me and so many others how we SHOULD be feeling! It's an historical day for Irish rugby, yes, for Irish sport, yes, AND for Ireland. To say otherwise means you really don't have a clue.

    to say otherwise means i dont give a fuck.. its only a game, you're attaching some gigantic significance to a sport... big deal :rolleyes:

    attaching historical importance is something else entirely.. ask the population what year the Easter uprising was and hopefull 90%+ should be able to tell you... wait 100 years and ask them what was so significant about a rugby match and they'll probably just look blankly at you
