So Euro 2004 is almost upon us and the hysteria of England’s imminent success (no really) is starting to pervade even the most level-headed of British bloggers. Simon Collison gives us the CollyLogical verdict even going so far as to pronounce Gary Neville as ‘excellent’. Andy Clarke gives us swatches based on football strips and a fantasy football team comprising bloggers.
Talking of fantasy football, get yourself over to the Euro 2004 site, set up a fantasy squad and enter the Bloggers league with this code: 38072-13210. The winner of the league gets a big jar of GoogleJuice.
And just look what’s happened to the badgers.

And if you can’t be bothered to go through the process of picking a squad, just let the system select one at random. It would be interesting to see if thoughtful selections are actually more successful than random ones.

Rich,
Of course thought out squads will do better!
What cheek suggesting that fantasy football is not a game of tactics, skill, and downright hardy decison making.
Let battle commence.

Never seen a weirder match!
Hope they bounce back. France v England in the finals!

Hey Blogsquadders, I’ve consulted Ladbrokes (almost honestly) and they’ve given me the betting odds for the Fantasy Football Blogger’s league.
