You're supposed to pick the winners, not the losers...

Anyone catching Ballack behInd the desk for ESPN? The misinterpretations of questions and the associated awkward moments of silence are awesome.

Greece-Poland match was much better than anyone probably expected but I still think those are the two teams that get eliminated from that group. Maybe if they get some sort of host nudge forward the Poles can finish ahead of the Czechs but the Greeks are still just trying to fight their way to the cup. I still can't believe that apporach worked once I hope it never does again. Although it would be fun to see a Germany-Greece match

Russia is not as good as the score indicated, they are better than the czechs but not 4-1 better IMO

I'm pretty excited for today's games... Missing Villa will hurt for this one but I still think Spain can get it done...

Paulie, if the Italians can get it done, it'll go a long way into stopping the free fall they've been on lately. You think they can steal one here?

I think they've got a good shot, I really do. They need to play old school Italian football -- a stout defense and one random act of offensive brilliance.

Good first half from Italy there. They had a couple of great scoring opportunities.

"Cracker" so far. Lots of chances for Italy. Spain seems hesitant to pull the trigger in the box.

The few they did put on goal were 'soft' for the most part...

Decent match for the Italians so far
