With Fintan McCarthy and Paul O’Donovan taking gold today, we at Slugger share in the sheer unbridled joy we all feel at seeing athletes from the island of Ireland compete on the biggest stage of them all.
So let’s take a moment to join with Dame Mary Peters and recognise all of those from our shared home who are there and competing, celebrate those who have taken bronze, silver or gold, and offer our steadfast support to those whose turn in the spotlight is yet to come!

For over 20 years, Slugger has been an independent place for debate and new ideas. We have published over 40,000 posts and over one and a half million comments on the site. Each month we have over 70,000 readers. All this we have accomplished with only volunteers we have never had any paid staff.
Slugger does not receive any funding, and we respect our readers, so we will never run intrusive ads or sponsored posts. Instead, we are reader-supported. Help us keep Slugger independent by becoming a friend of Slugger. While we run a tight ship and no one gets paid to write, we need money to help us cover our costs.
If you like what we do, we are asking you to consider giving a monthly donation of any amount, or you can give a one-off donation. Any amount is appreciated.
