Oh, more of the fallout over what Terry did or did not say. I honestly don't even know what he is alleged to have said!

I hope Joe Hart gets the captaincy. He's pretty much the only person on that team who isn't an awful human-being at this point.

No Phil, the green is beautiful (though I'm not a fan of the subtle hoops). I will miss the black and gold kits from 2010 though. Those were badass.

You know, Lippi said just the other day that he'd be interested in coaching a national, not a club, team and lead them into the 2014 World Cup. Fewer better opportunities would be available than coaching the English team. Not sure they'll go with another foreigner (especially an Italian) though.

And especially one who is an idiot.

I think that after their recent experiences with idiots, they'll go back to what we were accustomed from them pre-Erikson, ie fullblown cretins.

Idiot? Ok, 2010 aside, the man has been far from idiotic as a coach.

Not specifically Euro 2012 related but Friendly action returns this Wednesday. The game with my name a over it: Italy vs. U.S.A.  I know for whom I'm rooting. Wink

Later that night, PPL Park (the "Philadelphia" Union's stadium) will be hosting Ghana vs. Chile. A friend of mine will be taking me as a gift. That's what it takes for me to step foot in there. Wink In all seriousness, though, the teams aren't half bad so it should be interesting.

Ghana and Chile both did better than a certain team you're very fond of in the last World Cup, KP, so they're a little more than "not half bad." Tongue

Also Donovan is sick and won't be playing against Italy. Dempsey and him have yet to play together under Klinsmann. Sad

2010 isn't a good barometer. Wink

Just turning Germany-France on.

Wow, what on Earth happening? France leads!

And I hear the goal is from the good Giroud, 1st time here as main attacker. Nice.

U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!

I would have so much gay sex with Clint Dempsey, it's ridiculous.

Congrats on the historic win...against Italy's B side. Tongue

First time Italy has lost in Genoa, too.

The abuse I'm taking on Facebook from the fair weather fans is a) predictable, b) genuinely amusing and c) yet another reason why some of us will never care about the sport in this country. The "fans" are horrendous.

Note: some of my friends are sincere fans but most of this is nationalistic idiocy from people that couldn't care less about the game.

Chile vs. Ghana is actually really fun! I'm sitting with the Chile fans. Ghana up 1-0 at half time.

Great ending tonight. Chile awarded - and converted - a penalty in the final minutes. The ensuing celebrations within the Chilean ranks was great. 1-1 final.

Austria beats Finland by 3:1 with one of the craziest goals I've ever seen:
