Clockwork Oranje!!!


Believe it or not there is more happening in the sports world then just the NBA Finals. Which are going great by the way, Go Celtics! Anyway the rest of the world is watching the European Soccer Championships in Switzerland and Austria. This post may be just for me, Lindsey says that anyone who looks at our blog doesn't care about the soccer tournament. But we will see. One of my favorite teams to watch is Holland, mainly because they can't play defense, and have some amazing offensive power. Every year the Dutch start out strong, but by the end, the players self destruct and fight each other. We will have to see how 'Oranje' do this year. They have started the tournament on a roll, and have scored seven goals in two games against two powerhouse teams, France and Italy. All I can say is Go Holland! And if any of you are interested, you should check it out.

You're right, I don't really keep up on soccer, or any other sport really. But at least your post gave me something to read about for a minute.:)

Along with the rest of the USA, I am not much into soccer. I have figured the perfect way to capture the American audience if anyone would ever listen. They just need to get rid of the goalie so that after 3 hours of playing the score would be more like 35-37 rather than 0-1. I bet the game would be so much more popular, at least here! Come on USA, lets be trend setters!
