Soccer Overload... Will be watching the Romania- France game on mute, and hearing it on RTL.fr

So many big teams ... playing just a few days apart.

Euro 2008... Argentina -Mexico. What a great win by Argentina. Today Argentina - USA. Mexico - Peru! 4 - 0.

Tomorrow the 2 big favorites Italy and France. What to do. I only saw the Group A matches. Recorded the 2 Argentina games to see much later- in a few days. Only until tomorrow morning I'm watching another soccer game. The 2 Group C matches.

In Romania - France- I'm going for France

I wonder if Lassana Diarra will be in the starting 11. Here's a picture I took of him last summer in a Chelsea pre-season training camp at UCLA in Los Angeles, CA.

France- a euro 2008 favorite. According to L'Equipe (French sports paper), Domenech won't put Henry yet. He has to decide on Monday. (For me in L.A. it's still Sunday) He might put 2 forwards, Anelka and Benzema. I hope Benzema does what he's best at in a high pressure match. I think it's his first match in an international tournament.

I hope Portugal gets to the euro 2008 final. I also follow closely Italy and France. Tomorrow at 8:30am it will be- France game on ESPN on mute! Hear the French narrators online at RTL.fr. If only the goals can be called with much more enthusiasm. I like Andy Gray's comments more than the ones on ESPN Deportes.

In Netherlands - Italy - My money's on Italy.


- What are your predictions for tomorrow's Group C matches?
