I also have no dog in this fight. But it seems to me that the French team actually played better for most of the game.
I haven't been to Europe in years, but I enjoyed the people from both Italy and France that I met. I hope to return someday , and hope that I enjoy it as much as the last time.

Hey, I have another question: why does this only happen every four years? I didn't realize this until I heard someone mention that on the radio. There has to be some kind of recognized winning team every year, doesn't there? Is it just done by comparing records worldwide? Are there divisions worldwide like in American football, baseball, etc. I'm truly curious and would be grateful if someone could briefly mention how it all works.

Thanks,

ML

Since I spent so much time away and could not watch my baseball games for three years, I really came to like "futbol". Now I am a big fan and really enjoy it. "AJAX" (pronounced IYAKS) out of Amsterdam and Real Madrid are my two favorite teams.

Actually, I'm more confused than before, now. Their accounts are quite different.

Interesting.
