Mayo were portrayed as celebrities first and Gaelic footballers second in many quarters, it is a myth that doesn't stand up to the reality Paul Flynn experienced.
Dublin's transition needs to be accompanied by a reality check and an acceptance that their status has altered.
Gary Keegan has been involved in many of the most important developments in Irish sport. As a Dublin footballer, Paul Flynn worked with Keegan and in this conversation they discuss leadership, living in the present and Jim Gavin's endless curiosity.
Good managers deliver on the first impression rather than leaving it at empty words. That's what Jim Gavin did and it's how Tyrone's Brian Dooher and Fergal Logan operate too.
Kerry need to be willing to learn from their defeat to Tyrone and they need to be willing to learn the right lessons.
