Paul Flynn has responded to comments made by Donal Og Cusack regarding the Tailteann Cup.
Three-time All-Ireland winner Cusack described the competition as "a sort of Gaelic football Grand National for disappointed also-rans", comments which have irked many Gaelic football fans.
He said on RTE's Morning Ireland: "The microwave hurling championship gets a little chance to breathe this weekend. The GAA has two provincial football finals and the start of the Tailteann Cup, which if you haven't heard of it's a sort of Gaelic football Grand National for disappointed also rans."
