parent: Is Portugal Shit?

Johnny! Sympathy appreciated! This is how it works: There are four groups of four teams. So each team plays three games. Then the top two teams in each group go through to the quarter finals. We dramatically lost to France, but we're playing Switzerland on Thursday, and Croatia on Monday. On paper, and judging by the way the latter two teams performed the other night, we should win. But you saw the match on Sunday! Football's a funny old game! If we proceed, and France proceed, there is a chance that we will meet again, in Lisbon again, in the Final, on July 4th. It's not over yet. And revenge could be the sweetes its ever been, not least if we beat the Germans in the semis.
Early days yet, though! I'll keep you posted!

	Again Wash, best of luck to England. If I were allowed and possessed proper leg/kick strength, agility/balance, and speed/quickness I certainly would contribute to your island community's team. Please keep me posted Wash, especially if you happen to know the American sport channel and time of broadcast for the "live" game so that I might record it.
