Simon writes: Well, we know that football certainly won't be coming home this Summer, with none of the home nations involved in the Euro 2008 Tournament. But actually, this has allowed us to sit back, relax and enjoy the footie, not having 8 page editorials dedicated to meta-bleedin-tarsals is somewhat refreshing. The football itself has not been so bad thus far, with hosts Austria and Switzerland being the plucky losers and fancied countries like Germany and Portugal showing some early strength.
Of course, I could dissect the football side of things all day, but the blog editor is sitting over my shoulder wondering when I am going to bring underwear into the equation, so I better start doing that pretty sharpish.
Well, looking at the countries involved, if this was a 'contribution to Men's Underwear' tournament, there would only be one winner. Sure Sweden would come close with their Bjorn Borg range and the Germans would hit the crossbar of success with their comfy Mey range. However, the champions would have to be Italy - with names such as Armani and D&G playing upfront with Moschino and Diesel warming up the bench, the Italians really do know how to do underwear pretty well. They'll be teaching the Dutch a lesson this evening in more ways than one...
