I'd love to say this is the year neither Real nor Barca get through to the semis.

In reality, there'll probably be 3 Spanish teams there.

I thought it was stupid for France to leave Benzema home for some ridiculous trial that people had forgotten about by the time Euro rolled around. I think it's much, much dumber to leave a guy home because he likes hackin an Export A next to the dugout. He's hardly the first guy to do so.

Scotland gave us scotch, golf, and curling - As Meatloaf sang, 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

/There are reports that some hockey might have first been played in Scotland as well.

Scotland have equalized and it's 1-1 at halftime - Here's a scene straight from Glasgow...

I guess Scotland got the necessary wake-up call against Canada to go out and beat Slovenia in World Cup qualifying yesterday.

Messi's suspension is bullshit.

I don't think Argentina is totally screwed, but results over the next three matchdays could very easily go against them even if Messi were in the lineup and their final game is against the team chasing them in the standings in Quito which is only about 2500 ft closer to sea level than La Paz where they were pretty much dying last night.

With all this said, Leo really should talk to somebody about handling pressure and expectations. This, combined with his no-shows in Argentina's 3 finals from 2014-2016 and that bizarre international retirement, shows he's pretty overwhelmed when people look to him to lead.
