Sunday’s Munster championship-Cork v. Clare

Cork's Rebels nod to Thomas Kent successfull - beat Clare 0-20 to 0-14 without Ben O'Connor.

Virg & Mary were torn on this one. While Mary's own nephew, Seanie McMahon, was on the field for Clare, they love and somewhat fear their dear friend Rebecca Ruth Healey who is passionate for Cork. The people of Cork are not to be triffled with when it comes to hurling. This is from Peoples Republic of Cork: “It is hoped the first bullet that ripped through Thomas Kent’s flesh bursting his skull open killed him instantly - but nobody knows. Was he conscious or even slightly aware as another soldier approached and stood over his bleeding head about to fire another bullet into his heart to make sure he was dead? This is a defeat none of us carrying the Rebel flag could imagine in 2006.
On the way to the Munster semi final on May 28th Thurles bound rebels should take stock before boarding their train and give a quiet nod to the humbly positioned bust of Thomas Kent in the station’s car park. A true rebel.

There were some of the boys from Kerry, some of the boys from Clare,
From Dublin, Wicklow, Donegal, and boys from old Kildare
There were boys from the land beyond the seas from Boston and New York
But the boys who bate the Black and Tans were the boys from County Cork.
