Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh

In 1949, Michael Moriarty stood before a microphone in Croke Park, knowing nothing of hurling but remembering one man from Dingle. He watched Tadhg Hurley clear a dangerous shot and spoke that visible truth into the dark. The judges had no eyes, so they needed his memory to see the game. That sudden confidence birthed Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh and gave Ireland a voice for decades.
