GAA Commentators - Too Nice

Have you ever heard Marty ever ctiticise anyone...??!
If a fella tripped over his shoe lace, instead of criticising the player, Marty, Ger and Martin Carney would praise the shoe lace!

ah now in al fairness some of the shoe lace makers have put alot of time and energy into creating a light, skillfull, arodynamic shoe lace for the gaa, so alll praise is approriate

He's Betty Boo - he's Betty Boo and he's doin' the doo!!

I have to say Michael O muircheartaigh is one in a million! I know he's from Kerry and everthing, but i still love him he made 2 books 'from dún síon to croke park' and from boraloola to mangertin mountail and they were both outstanding!! He's a lovely guy, hands down-and i dont think there's anything wrong with being too nice either.

He's a great commentator and not the worst. But I have met him a few times and I have to say he does like to hear his own voice .......

i'll 2nd that jc he isnt a bad man or anything but likes to hear himself

Brendan Cummmins and Mattie Kerrigan on LMFM for all Meath Gaelic Games are excellent.

Colm Corrigan on the Louth Games is quite good as well - he also does a lot of the commentary up in Dundalk Greyhound stadium too.

The commentators on Northern Sound are good as well.

Brian Carthy would be favourite though of the ones with RTE.

liam spratt of south east radio turned around mid match this year when a dog ran onto the field and turned and asked his co presenter what bread of dog is that?? it was priceless
