Euro 2008: France vrs Italy - In Game Thread

[McBa1n]

Pretty much. Romania has to do better in the 2nd half man. I wanna cash, baby!

[pavyracer]

I'm curious to see if the subs for Holland are their starters from previous games. That will actually strengthen their squad for 2nd half.

[daggerkobe]

What kills me is I initally had Italy +.5 then switched after watching the odds start favoring the French on Pinny. I always lose when I do that yet I can't seem to stop.

[daggerkobe]

only chance they have is to start talking smack about italy's moms and hope they get headbutted.

[HeeeHAWWWW]

Toni couldn't score in a brothel today, he should have had 3 or 4 by now.

[Stacocakes]

Netherlands scored.........romania goalie is pumping his fist so I am like thank god it was offside...then the players congratulate eachother and walk away.What the **** is this?Why was the romanian goalie cheering?

He must have bet the under.

[Shark79]

He must have bet the under.

Hes Italian ... it is possible.

[daggerkobe]

was hoping Romania would lead so it would take the fight out of Italy but no such luck.

can these idiot frenchies learn how to pass properly????? they would've had great scoring chances if they could make some simple passes.

[Shark79]

this blows. 2 - 0 Italy

Need to keep this score ... so it goes UNDER

[HeeeHAWWWW]

Really odd game this. Italy's odds dropped to 1.22 after scoring, and haven't changed since the entire match. Lots like me scared of a French goal. Grrr, just drop a bit more so I can lay off.

Other weird thing today is a bookie settled a bit wrong, gave me <A DECENT SIZED AMOUNT> - punted it on the Dutch at just over 3.0. If it wins I have near <SEVERAL THOUSAND> in there, but can't withdraw cos it's still in bonus WR land, but can't arb either cos of the risk.



lol, Italy scored, lucky my lay didn't go through :-))


Edit: thought I might remove the amounts so I'm not identifyable :-)

[daggerkobe]

Nice goal Henry.... wrong net you stupid ****.

[Shark79]

Nice goal Henry.... wrong net you stupid ****.

[pavyracer]

Nice goal Henry.... wrong net you stupid ****.

what was he thinking? It helps the over if he scores one more goal like this.

[Shark79]

1 - 0 Holland

There goes my other pick

worst case I go 2-2 today


both unders

[McBa1n]

If you want to lose your lunch, turn on Romania. They had a 10 minute stretch where all but 2 players were actually trying. A defender got pissed and started dribbling up the field. They aren't even trying. It's pathetic. I don't even have the words to explain how bad Romania has been 2nd half. I mean damn man, show some freakin heart.

[McBa1n]

Romania is playing the full team shell on D!! wtf!

[Shark79]

u jinxed it crazy and now u rub it in ...

[McBa1n]

They'd have 100 goals if they had 10% of Turkey's heart. They just look gassed, don't care and 2 steps late... Pathetic

[SBR Lou]

HA I really had no opinion I promise, I mean yeah I'm Italian but with no $ on it, no real rooting interest. But how you could fade guys that invented pizza, this I don't understand.

You will kick ass rest of tourny....

[Shark79]

well 2 - 0 Holland taking a walk in the park.

HOpe the keep these scores.

Wanna hit these unders!!!!!

[McBa1n]

Grats on the unders. Yay! gogo break even day! ugh, f'n Romanian quitters.

[Shark79]

2 - 2 for the day ... not bad. +1.3

[Shark79]

Grats on the unders. Yay! gogo break even day! ugh, f'n Romanian quitters.

Romania sucked today.

I bet they would've been crushed if Holland would've used their starters.
