Hurling should be a popular sport

It’s only played in Ireland. I think if they wore pads, and could then hit harder, it would be the greatest sport. I like the lawlessness.

Not sure why they need to hit harder with pads on. It's already pretty brutal.

Is this basically “Kill the man with the ball”?

I played it a couple of months ago when I got food poisoning.

If you are a Kansas City Royals fan this year it already is.

Hurling is popular at lots of sporting events. 
ETA: I can understand the play-by-play guy, but need closed captioning with the color guy.

St Louis used (might still) to have a hurling league that played at the big city park on Sunday mornings that my buddy played in. We would all go down with a cooler to watch and get shite-faced while he played at sunrise.
It was always a good time.

Not familiar with that game. Was it ever called anything else?

That’s what I’m saying. It’s captivating.
With a few tweaks, seems like it could be popular here.

Sorry, but that is just a mash up of way too many sports.
Kinda unbelievable how excited those fans are over this pre-civilization type of circus game…

I can't imagine why a sport whose name is also a synonym for puking isn't more popular.

Pretty sure I've seen an Irish game on that same field setup that was mash up of soccer and rugby.
Posted on 9/2/21 at 7:55 am to AtlantaLSUfan
So it's like soccer combined with rugby combined with football combined with lacrosse with a little bit of baseball mixed in.
Fantastic.
Fantastic.

I mean from what I saw... it was insanely fast paced, extremely physical, and with minimal referee interference. A lot easier to watch than the product the NFL sells nowadays.

Also a basketball aspect in that they have to dribble off the stick when running with the ball. It’s a combo of everything.
