Let them sing, sing and sing.
The GAA is our national treasure and it's only right that it's spreading all over the world. A beautiful thing, a beautiful culture, the more and more people that are introduced to this and the further and further it extends its powerful wings, the better.
The GAA is spreading all over the world, has been for quite a while now. Expats who have moved abroad, by necessity or by choice, brought it with them and they show it off proudly to the locals, who've been bitten by the bug too.
Now there are GAA teams in England, in San Francisco in the middle east and all places in between. It must be something special for the Irish abroad, knowing that no matter how far away they are from where it all started, they can start that journey again in the same way, just in a different country.

There are proud Gaels in all corners of the world and the GAA is what sustains them on their travels.
And they're getting more and more competitive now too.
Last weekend, we saw New York come closer than ever before to winning their first game in the Connacht Championship. That milestone will be chalked off soon, undoubtedly.
Some of the results from this weekend's hurling show just how competitive these sides are getting.
Last year, English hurling side Warwickshire won their second ever Lory Meagher Cup when they defeated Leitrim. On Saturday, they continued on that upward curve when the newly promoted outfit got their Nicky Rackard campaign off to a flying start in Dowdalshill, county Louth.

The Englishmen gave the Wee County a 12 point clipping in their own back yard, and they certainly won't fear any opponents as this competition progresses.

Only a couple of hours later the London hurlers were nabbing victory from the jaws of defeat when they came back from a two point deficit deep into the second half to beat Derry in Derry.
The 2012 Christy Ring Cup champions will also have high hopes of matching glory days past this year, and results like this show they're going the right way about it.

They're only getting better and better and better.
