Why Bother?

I just cannot excite myself with the idea of an Ulster Championship draw as I used to. Back then, probably circa 2004, you did build up a personal head of steam. It meant something. Now, well, who cares really? Antrim might beat Monaghan in Clones but the Oriel County might return the favour two months later. Antrim will lick their wounds in the Bot whilst Monaghan march on. It leaves you wondering, what was the point in the first game?
