Travels in Trumpland (2018) – Ed Ball's documentary is a Triumph

Posted on August 5, 2018 by MMA Insider

About a week ago I stumbled on an episode of ”Travels in Trumpland’ the documentary series by Ed Balls. I should confess at this point that the career of Ed Balls had more or less passed me by. I was vaguely aware that he was a Labour politician and at a push might have guessed…

Brexit ain’t happening folks – Time to move on

Posted on July 24, 2018March 28, 2020 by MMA Insider

My favorite part of Breaking Bad was about 3 episodes before the end of each season.  That’s when all the plot lines started to knit together. At this point Walter White and Jesse started to get their shit together or not at all as the case may be. We are now at the same stage…

SO YOU want to be a Social Media Influencer….

Posted on July 21, 2018 by MMA Insider

I have a visceral dislike for the word Influencer. Every time I login to my social media accounts my feeds seem to be filled with people claiming to be or looking to be influencers. Social media influencers – the great buzz phrase of our time. I must admit though that I hadn’t thought too deeply…

Have you noticed how Floyd Mayweather has quietly drifted off over the horizon with barely a mention since his August showdown with McGregor? He’s a couple of hundred million bucks wealthier and it seems a quiet and semi anonymous retirement beckons. Not so Mcgregor. He too has done sweet f*ck all since August but he…

Posted on April 15, 2018November 4, 2018 by MMA Insider

One of the things I love about US Politics and democracy is that you can summon the super-rich to a Joint senate committee and fucking Grill them. This past week it was the turn of Mark Zuckerberg, founder and CEO of Facebook and Boy oh Boy did he look uncomfortable. Ordinary people everywhere are now…

Rory Mcilroy shoots himself in the Putt……

Posted on April 9, 2018November 4, 2018 by MMA Insider

So Patrick Reed is our 2018 US Masters champ. His previous 3 days play allowed him the comfort of not having to do a helluva lot to win. In fairness though he made some clutch putts during the round to ensure the win – none more so than that tasty 3 footer on the last….

Posted on December 13, 2017March 22, 2019 by G

I did not expect to be writing about a boy called Keaton Jones Today. I came to hear about Keaton via Dana White’s tweet about him along with the Video. I am sure many of you came to hear about him in the same way. Keaton Jones is  11 year’s old.  I have no doubt…

Conor McGregor, a Team called Mayo and Redefining Greatness.

Posted on September 18, 2017December 19, 2018 by MMA Insider

I have a confession to make. This story is only loosely connected to Conor McGregor the man and more about who he represents and why his rise and the rise of MMA in Ireland has been an uncomfortable one. However as the title hints at this is a story that is also about a team…
