    American football is definitely by far my favorite sport to watch and the NFL is my favorite league. It amazes me that all 32 NFL teams are in the top 50 most valuable sports franchises in the world. that just shows how crazy we are about it.

    having said that i also love watching Euro and World Cup along with the EPL and some of La Liga. and of course soccer is the world's sport and i wish we (USA) were more involved. it would be cool if in 10-20 years some of our teams like New York or L.A. were involved in some Super League with the best teams in Europe. one can dream cant they? :)

    that would be very cool.. that would take a whole lot of changes though, probably starting with offering more high school and college soccer scholarships for boys.

    and i also agree with american football being my favorite to watch. people complain about the starts and stops and time outs, but that makes it easier for bathroom breaks and snack breaks :laugh:

    great job for the czechs and the greeks. those were 2 good games and gave me excellent entertainment while on the treadmill.

    can't wait to see tomorrow's games

    I am super sad that I work today during the biggest games of the tournament so far for my team.....I will not get home until about three hours after it is over, so I have to keep my head and ears away from facebook and here, and away from people trying to talk about it, lol

    As soon as I get home, I will make dinner, and watch the games. THEN come online......

    Forza Italia!!

    My thoughts exactly. WTF happened to them this tournament?

    The Croatia/Spain match today could be a belter. Looking forward to watching when I get home from work. Hooray for DVRs! :smile:

    I really wanna like that guy. He plays some great football, but his attitude.....ugh.

    Looking forward to watching these matches when I get home tonight, even though the results are what I expected.

    Well that's crushed any little hope of England getting anywhere. Not going to beat Spain.
