Deutschland über alles!

In regards to today's matches, I wouldn't mind Poland doing well. It's always fun when the home team does well

Here's a handy link to help you keep track of what channels the games are on :

http://footballtvcanada.blogspot.ca/

I use this site during the Premier League season, and the guy who maintains it keeps it very up to date.

There is also radio information, which may come in handy if you're in the car (or at a workplace where audio is OK but video is taboo) and want to catch some of the action. My survival strategy for the tournament will consist of my Slingbox so I can stream the games from home to my desktop at work, and the TuneIn Radio app for the iPhone, which can pick up the streams from the TSN/Team radio stations while I'm in the car.

The gamesmanship begins!

KIEV, Ukraine -- A bad salad at a German hotel might have caused the food poisoning that sickened 10 players of European Championship co-host Ukraine before their final warm-up game against Turkey on Tuesday.

I'd like to see Greece and the Czechs win today. I wanted Poland to do well before some of their fans decided to act like idiots to the Dutch players. Now I hope they get demolished.

I am going to very slightly change my picks:

QF
Germany over Poland
Netherlands over Russia
Sweden over Spain
France over Ireland

SF
Germany over France
Netherlands over Sweden

F
Germany over Netherlands

I think the Poles come second in the group over the Czechs. I just realized that the Czechs inexplicably still think that Milan Baros doesnt suck and that is an assumption that I simply cannot abide.

Its going to get worse than that once things get rolling in the Ukraine.

Its not that Ukrainians are racist, they just dont like anyone or anything thats not Ukrainian. I dont know why, I cant think of anything Ukrainian thats particularly good, but there you go.

On that Poland goal do you think the passer actually saw that guy coming in or was it more of a blast one towards the net and hope for the best scenario?

I bought the online pass from TSN for $19.99 and it's fantastic. Good quality - no suttering - and lots of cool stats and heat maps that don't clutter up the screen.

The Team 1410 in Vancouver seems to have pretty much all of the matches, with the majority of the other games being on TSN?team stations in Toronto, Montreal, and Ottawa. They should all have online streaming.

Here are some quick links:

I just tested them, and if you've got AdBlock Plus running, the stream won't start. So just disable it on the specific site you're trying.
