2 1/2 Cheers to Spain
However much I enjoyed the footballing clinic that is the Spanish team, I couldn't muster up much enthusiasm for their well-deserved win.

Happy Euro 2008
Football's second best tournament starts today.
I still haven't decided on a favourite. I think Germany could do well, although their age is an issue (half of the team is over 30). Greece haven't improved enough to repeat, but they did do well in the qualification, so who knows. One team that I guarantee to fail is Holland. They have been rated as favourites in every major tournament since they won the Euros in 1988, but haven't done anything since. I don't see them doing anything this year either.
