Well vote and see if the prediction is right!!!
Walk along the Waterfall, watching as the world turns red
Wonder where the river flows, and the blood on the River bed
Poison lies to close to us, Reach across the salt and Sand
Moving Deeper into the Land

Appelmoes??

After the disgracing qualifier rounds of the Netherlands I'm not sure if I will watch. (Yeah, they got placed, but was it by playing football or doing math?)

I vote for Poland because I'd like "little" football countries to win over the big ones sometimes (even if the last Euro winner was not an expected one, to say the least).

Same for the German team I think...  ;)

Yeah, that's exactly what it looked like!!  ;D

Appelmoes??

Same question comes to mind when you see Israel singing in the EUROPEAN song festival... Turkey I can slightly understand, since the're in Eurasia, but Israel? Before we know it they will also want to join the EU ???

In my opinion Turkey isn't part of Europe, geographically and culturally. They even have an arabic language if I'm correct

Amen to that!

There's a big difference between city and countryside in Turkey. People in Istanbul and Ankara are just as European as us, have the same sense of freedom and similar values, while out in the countryside they're living like in our medieval times.

So Turkey is really an in-between country, partly European and partly Asian.

Good point, but I still don't like them... or, to be more precise, I don't like the "Hey, we're just as European as you, so let us get into the EU and benefit from all the good stuff you have and take all the money we can" attitude.  >:(

Well, at least I don't fake health insurance ID cards in order to get free treatment/medicine - for which we stupid Germans have to pay a lot of money into the social welfare system! (It happens all the time - at my dermatologist, I've even witnessed it happening!! Nobody can tell one black-veiled moslem woman from another...)

I think (but hope not) that Germany will win the European Championships. They're real tournament fighters, grow into a tournament. When they are not good, they have luck at the right time. And at least they are fighting till the very last second, the dutch can't say that  >:( :-\.

Really? Germany??  :o  Well, they'll have to grow into it quite a bit.. Have you seen them play recently? For example their last match - honestly, what was that all about?  ::)

Ehhmmm....there seems to be something wrong, I can't vote on England! ;D

Why not cast your vote for Germany instead?  ;)
(In case you wonder - nope, I did NOT vote for Germany.)  :o

I think Germany didn't want to win their last match, it was a tactical choise. They would have been in bowl 1 with the draw. Did you read the newspaper 'Bild'? Like I said, Germany is always ready for a tournament. We'll see.

Tactical choice or just good/bad luck - I'm not sure...  ;)

As always i vote for the Czech Republic. I always liked their way of playing and to me they deserve it.
Just like Spain by the way.

Didn't see that match. Only saw the goals which were really neat. I personally don't think that Croatia has the skills to beat countries like France or Germany for instance. I consider their victory against England as pure luck but having said that i must repeat i didn't see the match.

Appelmoes??

Yes, judging by the way the czechs played the last big tournamenst they really deserve a win this time. I'm rooting for them this time :)

Nothing in the world as unimportant as football (i.e. soccer). :P

But eventhough some lieuts and Caps were on the same page, some armies lost their battles anyway.  :P  ;D
