 Re: Official Euro 2008 Thread!!!!!! Predict!!!
VIVA ESPANA! I hope they take the entire cup! Goooooooooooooo!
First half was boring. Even second half was kind of scrappy, but very nice goals. I think the fact that it was pouring buckets probably had something to do with it. Anyone know what happened to Villa that he is not playing at all in the final? I bet a stress-fracture.

1. Awww, I was just in Granada, Seville, and Cordoba. How could I not be for the Spaniards! 2. I'm rebelling against failing my German translation exam and being stuck in an intensive summer school course until mid August. 3. Besides, you guys have won this thing so many times, its getting predictable.

Spain has a much stronger defense and the Germans will have to play spectacular offense to win.

I look at the longue duree! Spain's never won the Worlds, won Euro only once nearly half a century ago, and has only even made it to the Euro finals one other time 25 years ago. Its their turn to win! Plus, flamenco dresses are the hottest thing maybe ever.

Still in Manchester. But I wouldn't mind those 100m euros, and Robinho/Sneijder.

. . . . . neo_wolf wrote: in what league do most of the best players from around the world go to play? . . . The Premier League. Ronaldo will probably stay at United considering Real cant actually afford to pay the money they are claimed to be offering, Real are deep in the red and dont they have to get bailed out by the government every few years?! Man U dont really need the money aswell.

Man U dont really need the money aswell. Supposedly Real are financing the move with a loan from Bank Santander. They can afford to take the risk I mean who'd dare foreclose on Real!
