LOSING THE CUP - who's watching the UEFA Euro 2008? (Jun/11/2008 )

I’m a bit late but the Euro Cup Soccer has just barely started anyways…so instead of asking who’s gonna win, I ‘d rather give it my own twist and ask who is not gonna bring home the cup..the big LOSER...


Germany
Germany
Germany
Germany
Germany
Italy
France
Nederland
Greece
England (just to rub it in)

dr. hobbes...can you make a poll out of this bec I failed several times....

PS and I like soccer....

---

Unfortunately, Spain, the big underachievers... (I hope I'm wrong)!

---

England? They didn't make it, they were thrown out before. Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Russia may also important. My tip: The Netherlands as winners . Loser: Italy who else?

But poll? I'm afraid, but the topic starter has to do it or a moderator...

---

Could not agree more, and also hope you are wrong... hey we all have our hopes this year (and when not!!!)

Not a bad start yesterday... but will we be able to keep it up???

a por ellos... oe!!!!

---

You really don't like Germany ('s soccer team)? Don't you?

---

Hi Jou, are you by any chance German? Sorry about that...I was just teasing hobglobin as a payback for him teasing me about the loss of the Habs in the Stanley playoffs and Canada in the World's and it's Hockey by the way..and it's sooo complicated..and we suck at soccer (not as exciting as hockey btw) chasing a tiny ball across a green lawn.....but I think that Germany will still be the biggest loser...and that's nothing personal...

regards,

chasing a tiny ball across a green lawn...that's hockey: field hockey!
The Greeks are surprisingly the last European Champions, but if they make it again? Chances are very low to do it again, also a loser team IMO.

Casandra, you forgot:

AUSTRIA

As our media was celebrating the new unexpected winner of this championship since month.....and now we lost the first match

but nevertheless I am SURE that we will BEAT GERMANY!!!! Even our president said that Vienna will become a second Cordoba!!!!

Nevertheless: Although I like football I try to avoid all this hype (working in and living near of one of the host cities ) ....drunken football fans on the way to work, heavy traffic and "public viewing" (should become the no no word of the year) everywhere

---

hey gebZ,

what's "public viewing"? I can imagine something but I could be soo wrong...and yes, I also think that you will beat Germany so it's pretty much the consensus that Germany is not THE team to beat in this euro cup...watch out for the german hooligans ...

btw..what's our lunch for today and where are the recipes girl..you can't be only working and watching soccer all the time ....

pouting now,

casandra

Is there some football on at the mo then? I hadn't noticed it myself..

To be honest, after the scandalous way we were treated in the eurovision song contest I'm glad we're not playing lol .....

How much on the final going to penalties then?? The usual saddening end to any big footy competition... 'sniff'
