The article discusses the absurdity of potentially eliminating all but four counties from hurling championships by midsummer's day, given the excellent weather, ground conditions, and high public interest in the sport. The GAA has a large membership of more than 500,000, and it’s suggested that no reasonable argument could advocate for such a reduction in competition. Such a move would contradict the spirit of the sport and the enthusiasm of its community during peak season.
Given the favorable weather, conditions, and public enthusiasm, it is hard to justify limiting hurling participation to just four counties by midsummer's day.
A survey of over 500,000 GAA members would likely yield no affirmative responses to the proposal of drastically reducing championship competition.
