EuroCup

The EuroCup is basically equivalent to the World Cup, but is only among European competitors. It is a huge deal over here and everyone is always talking about the games. It has been taking place this last week and Kyle and I have watched a bit of it on TV. The other night after a big game, the commentators had their show to analyze all that had happened. I couldn't help but laugh when I saw the difference between this TV show and US Sports Center.

First, they sit around a picnic table drinking red wine:
Then they just look funny in general with a striped tie, striped shirt and curly hair:


And to top off the wine drinking, they wear a sweater tied over their shoulders:


But then a commercial came on during the show. Apparently there will be a new reality/sports show here where women will play soccer in bikinis. It turns out there is not as much difference between American and European men as I thought. I guess the only real difference is that you probably couldn't get these shots past the US censors.
