I have no idea what shape the teams are right now but my predictor of group winners are:

Greece
Czech Rep.
Germany
Portugal
Spain
Italy
France
England

I used to root for the Dutch but I recently hate them for being anti-Polish xenophobes and rolling down on pot for tourists, so fuck you. I think this year I'm rooting for Portugal because Ronaldo is dreamy and I don't really care for any other team.

Since when do you care for football?

I think Spain's on a decline, whereas Germany's on the ascendency. I pick Germany.

But maybe because no one's giving England a chance, maybe they'll finally win. :bowler:

I'm picking Germany to win it and rooting against the English.

How is England worth rooting against? :blink:

Personally I'm rooting against John Terry.

Valmy shall be blessing the heroic Spaniards.

I'm so sorry Larch.

I am sorry but the very ground on which I stand was once part of Spain.  Patriotism demands I back the nation that gloriously attempted to bring civilization to Texas (a still ongoing project).

Mexico isn't playing.

Meh Texas was only part of Mexico for 26 years.  We barely had all the flags changed before we were taking them down.

But you know if Mexico was playing I would probably back my southern neighbors.

What was the anti-Polish stuff from the Dutch?  Not heard of this :mellow:

Xenophobic attacks on immigrants, mainly from Poland, including a few cases of beatings and arson. This is done with support of the Wilders' guy party, which started a "report Polish immigrants for being noisy or littering" website which created quite a diplomatic row between Poland and the Netherlands because the Dutch prime minister refused to condemn the website. This has actually earned the Dutch a condemning resolution from the European Parliament and has been widely reported here.

Since when do you care for football?

I don't but considering Warsaw is about to be overrun by football fans I can either whine about it or pretend I care.

Fortunately, I will be away for a week (Gran Canaria holidays) so hopefully this will not affect me too much.

Well be happy you arent in the Ukraine. With the EC coming to town the media have published some rather ugly stories from there.



Not Cecil approved.  :mad:
