Euro 2008

Euro 2008 is happening. Like most Americans, I'm not a "football" fan, though I probably ought to be, considering how addicted the rest of the world is and how compelled I am to stand and surrender my attention whenever I do catch a match by chance.

Yesterday, I happened to walk past an Irish pub on 33rd street that had a chalkboard stand out in front announcing that they'd be displaying a match between Spain and Sweden. Though I didn't slip inside the pub and enjoy it live, I was pleased to discover this morning that Spain defeated Sweden 2-1. Somehow, that feels strangely satisfying.
