The Best Three Weeks

Every few years an amazing opportunity comes up to enjoy a few weeks of football -- or as they call it here in America -- soccer. Now I generally don't blog about sports here...to catch good sports commentary, check out PHSports. I shall carry on...

The Euro Cup concluded today and was (what I would consider) one of the greatest tournaments I've ever seen. My original bet was on either Portugal or Netherlands taking the whole thing -- probably because of the fact that I'm partial to the Manchester United players...but as the tourney went on, I couldn't help but jump on the Turkey bandwagon. Their calm and collected play, amazing finishing, and all the heart they showed out there made me feel like they deserved to be in the final.

Anyway, another couple years and then we get some World Cup action...until then, we can settle on some boring baseball, another mediocre basketball season (did I tell you I hate the Lakers?), and seeing Tom Brady cry a couple more times...
