Well that was exciting.
I'll be rooting for Belgium to make it out of that half of the draw.
44:24 until Germany v. Italy.
Holy sh*t.
And no, it's not that difficult to avoid two yellows in five matches.
Wales has left England......in the dust.
Gareth freaking Bale, that's why. The most expensive player on planet earth and he is underrated, because Ronaldo pouts every time Bale does something good at Real.
I'll take him over Denayer. Wales needs to send that clown a fruit basket.
Goalline posted:There's the Boateng I know and love. What a brain fart.
I thought of this as he played the ball.
LOL.
Before that **** up, I thought Boateng was playing great ball.
That was ugly. Lots of missed PK's. Wow, these two nations have a reputation for staying cool in pk shootouts.
Finally is right.
Although, I thought the new rule on penalty kicks was that you couldn't take a stutter step like Bonucci did in regulation. (Well, in the shootout too, but Neuer saved that one.)
Almost as bad as watching England take PKs.
Although when Schweinsteiger missed, I couldn't help but think of the '12 CL final.
Iceland coach has beer named after him
I also like these two lines from the article:
So far, beer from the brewery, which is one of Iceland’s smallest, has exclusively been served at the restaurant Einsi kaldi in Vestmannaeyjar. The new beer will also be available there during the Euro Cup.
Einsi kaldi’s owner, Einar Björn Árnason, will not be available at the restaurant, however, because he is the football team’s official cook.
There's the difference between playing a good team and playing England.
So impressed with the fight in the dog so to speak, of Iceland.
Apparently the wagering for France-Germany is split right down the middle.
Please...France looked pedestrian in every match they played EXCEPT vs Iceland...who yes, they beat like a drum, but that's what you are supposed to do when you're a top 4 Euro team vs. a squad that has never been to a world cup.
I'm taking Germany all day vs. the Frogs and then vs. Wales for the title.
I like your confidence. (You know I'm a worry wart, right?)
I know the purpose of betting odds is to get the right amount of money on each option and make certain the house will win regardless of the result, but still, I just looked up one site, bwin, and the odds are:
Germany 2.95, Draw (I'm not certain if that's after 90 or 120 minutes) 3.00, France 2.80
Other sites I looked at have similar odds. So I guess more people are wagering on France, strange as that may seem to you.
Of course people are wagering on France...it's a home game for them.
TBT, IDGAF who wins now that England is out. But I was sort of banking on England's offense making up for Joe Hart's inept GK.
Top to bottom I think Italy was the best team in the tournament...they should have beaten the Herms, but Germany's D made sure they didn't. I think the Frogs jaws will be cramped from blowing each other over the Iceland reaming.
Barring a complete meltdown, I think Germany wins like 2-0.
Well, I guess France will be playing Portugal on Sunday based on my predictions.
Best of luck today Fed...I will be pullin' for the Herms...although TBT, it's more like rooting against the Frogs.
F those cheese-eating surrender monkeys.
France should be down 1-0 in this match...card on Can was WEAK $HIT
I told you I was worried, but noooooooo, you wouldn't listen.
I forgot Hummels was out...and losing Boateng hurt.
Guess I am pulling for Turdnaldo and the Mannys.
I'm rooting for the Stade de France roof to cave in under a heavy snowfall.

So, this is what happens when Germany play a good team?
Blair Kiel is going to be pissed that you implied the Italians suck.
Thank-you.
I "dated" a guinea in college. Man, she could suck the chrome off a...
Hateful.
I told you England were lucky to avoid Portugal in the round of 16! 
It was a garbage tournament. Glad it's over and we can concentrate on truly meaningful things. Like all the transfer rumor mental masturbation and $hit.
