pick the winner and runner up in each group as well as point totals. first game is 6/8. picking correct order of group winner and runner up gets you two points each. picking two teams to advance out of group gets you one point each. correct point totals get you a point each. as always, fake money is on the line. how much depends on how many, if any, participants there are.

group a
czech republic
greece
poland(host country)
russia

group b

germany
portugal
netherlands

group c
croatia
ireland

group d

I don't know shit about this tournament outside of how fun it is.

Do teams play each other once in the group stage?

Need to know for point total purposes.

BTW this should be a fun contest between me, you and the one other soccer poster we have here.

Netherlands in trouble.

[BGThomasis]

Danes caught a break on a potential handball inside the 18.

[BGThomasis]

The Dutch fall. They have their work cut out for them to advance.

I missed this. Wont even try to make a stab at pickem now with the groups almost half done.

Good games so far. The Dutch falling was something. They had lots of opps but could not captialize.

Interesting to see what happens with them and Germany today.

Darn, I missed the start of this as well.
Enjoyed watching the end of the Russia/Poland match
...but on a semi-related rant - what's w/ putting the WC Qualifying match of US/Guatemala only on PPV? Not very nice for the few people in the US who would want to watch that.

wouldn't have mattered since they lost to france and head to head is 1st tiebreaker.
