Hero: Bertie Ahern:Not a bad day for the chief!He stood by his belief that Sinn Fein leaders knew the IRA were planning to rob the Northern Bank and he also admitted that promoting Ray Burke to his first cabinet was a mistake.

Bertie Ahern exhibiting honesty?!I don't know what's brought all this on but I like it!

Villain: Setanta Sports:Uh oh.Apparently the TV station is to make a bid for the rights to broadcast GAA matches.
Croke park bosses will soon meet to discuss TV rights for the next three years and Setanta will join RTE and TG4 in the battle.

I imagine there will be more than a few GAA fans upset with this news and I wouldn't blame them!
