came home from watxching the first game of our national team in the eurpoean championchips. actually i hate football/soccer and dont give a damn, but rumours said beer is cheasp at public viewing places (and the girls are young :twisted: ). germany won vs poland, which kinda sucks since i put my money on poland.
I got told, that ENgland didnt even qualiofy for this tournament. Dude, if I knew just a tiny bit about football I´d made a ton of jokes about you guys ;)
Yah we don't care. Sorry.
As an Austrian I should be interested but then I'm in the camp that our national team has no place in the EC08.
England are gonna win it hands down.
As an American, wtf is this pussy shit?
i hate you xtr :(
I was listening to radio 5live and who pops up as the commentator? Steve Arsefucking Mclaren.
How that man has the cheek to be commenting on any football tourney, let alone the Euros is beyond me. IMO he should be hung from Tower Bridge, not given a job through the BBC which we pay for. Fucker.

I almost wish i'd placed a few bets on this since at least then i could pretend to give a shit. It's started already, but should anybody fancy some low-stakes prop betting on this thing ($10 probably) then i'm down. I'm thinking something silly like over/under on how many of the round robin matches go to penalties, or something to that effect.
Woooo, I have a whole £20 ($40) riding on this tourney.... Accumulators concerning the different group winners (you can still get this if you're quick). Portugal to win. Russia e/w. Torres top goalscorer.
surprised they decided to ignore you.Quote:

american football>>>>>>>>>>>>euro pussy "football"
Meh, my attention span is equally pathetic for both, so no arguments from me!
tbh i dont mind american football but the fact they have breaks like every 10 seconds is seriously boring (rugby ftw). I also cant disagree that true football (soccer) is fairly pussyish in comparison, but seeing as your sport is limited to only being played seriously in one continent whilst soccer is played in effectively every country world wide should highlight the fact that soccer dicks all over american football imo.
Make some of your pussy American Football players run into a rugby or league player at full speed and I can hear the crunch of US bones.Quote:

How about let's not turn this into one big argument about sports. The Europeans stayed out of the NFL threads during the season so let's try to do the same.
I actually enjoy watching soccer (yes I'm going to call it soccer) and I watched the Netherlands vs Italy today.
FWIW I was hoping to have a more profound effect, thats all.
The Holland - Italy match was awesome. 2nd goal was Dutch football at it's best. Also nice to see the French stryggle against Romania.
ahh wildbob, this thread could have turned into an all out free for all lol but yeah sounds sensible...
BTW HOLLAND FTW!
Romania whooohoooo.. I guess tying with the French is a small victory.
Also Netherlands-Italy game was sick sick sick!!! I hope the orange shirts will continue to play like this b/c its impressive.
yeah i watched both games today because I'm a saddo.
Dutch display made up for the first game...
It was a great goal but I don't think it was Dutch football at it's best. A quick counter attack is not their natural style but Van Basten has been forced to change their play as they don't have the players this time around.Quote:

HUP HUP HOLLAND!
Ah, good to see our little country is getting some support :) Great match yesterday, hungover today ;-)
Hopefully we can keep up this form for the entire tournament, I dont think anyone expected this over here.
I've got Holland in my work sweepstake :dance:
Holland played a great game, 2nd goal kicked ass. Congrats to the Oranjes!
