The Euro2008 is starting on 7th of June - and since I hate Fußball this is not going to be a pleasant month. Public viewing and screaming fans will mess up my favorite restaurants and cafes.

Switzerland and Austria are this years hosts - which is odd, but understandable, since both countries are too small to bear the full brunt of football hooligans by themselves. So they share the beer and vomit.

Here is an overview which countries are part of the tournament - hey you can even install some crappy widget on your blog or MySpace page - which I certainly won’t do.

If you are a real football nut, you be in pubs the next four weeks or you’ watch the live stream via the intranets (which will cost you €35 - they have already reduced it from €50) or you simply install FootieFox for Firefox (so your browser tells you what’s going on).

I just wish it was all over already.
