More pressing issues for GAA than Hawk Eye

MY school reports could make weary reading.

Starting with art and moving through the subjects in alphabetical order the remarks would be virtually identical. “Distracts others in class,” would be followed by: “Is a distraction to others.” All the way down to religious education, those two statements would be repeated ad nauseam.

It was predictable fare, and I always felt my report reflected extremely poorly — on the teachers. Their lack of originality and limited forms of expression were quite alarming.
