Bobby Jones bowing bowing bowing has to be up there for me.

He was one of the best Golfers Ever and he could teach the a lot of people about integrity and sportsmanship. A real gentleman who was a role model to many.

Mikey Sheehy, a kerry footballer of the seventies and eighties, The greatest player I have ever seen, a man blessed with skill and intelligence but always had an air of modesty which somehow made him more admirable in my eyes.

peadar: id give the great Sean Kelly the nod.


Of all of Ireland's many sportsmen and hero's, Sean Kelly is one of the few who is revered worldwide in his field for his excellence; Eamon Coughlan, Dr. Pat O'Callaghan, Arkle and more recently Brian O"Driscoll can step up to this mark as well

thumbs up
