Just thought I'd share this video. Here is fellow youtuber Kurtmac's pre-Euro 2008 video.
I haven't really looked at or analyzed each of the groups very closely except for Croatia's group and when I do, I will have definitely have my predictions in a future post. As Kurt says, Romania's group is definitely the "group of death". Netherlands. Italy, and France are all past cup winners and have fantastic teams. However, I have to disagree and say that it will be France not Netherlands to qualify out of this group although I like Netherlands a lot better than France. The rest of the groups I will talk about in a future post.
The only other thing I'm going to say now is that I hope Greece and Italy do not win it. It is not easy being a Croatia supporter in my neighborhood with Greeks and Italians as my neighbors. I was in Croatia when Greece won Euro 2004 so it didn't bother me then (my Croatian friend who lives in East Elmhurst--near Astoria, Queens was saying that the Greeks wouldn't stop rubbing it in and it pissed him off even more because it was on the 4th of July), but when the Italians won the 2006 World Cup, you can hear them beeping on Francis Lewis Blvd (two blocks away from me) and they wouldn't quit until midnight. Some of the people have never watched a soccer match a day in their life, they watch the final between Italy and France then think they know everything about soccer screaming out "Forza Italia" before the match. Let me stop there because I'm starting to rant.
