Great full day of soccer ahead.

Switzerland verses Switzerland on right now. No typo. It's really Albania but 11 of Albania's 23 grew up in Switzerland.

Gareth Bale vs Slovakia at 12.

England vs Russia at 3.

USA vs Paraguay at 7.

My cousin and I decided to do some draft kings stuff for the Euros. Hoping that our relatively strong knowledge of the European game should help us.

Good luck. I tried soccer on draft kings and failed miserably. Too much randomness involved. Does the league go for just today or over the course of the weekend?

it included last night and today. So it appears they will basically daily. What I have found so far as you want guys who will get lots of crosses, corner takers, and obviously high volume shooters.

I'm doing what appears to be pretty poorly, but pretty much everyone loaded up on French players compared to me.

Not even joking...out of 1900 teams submitted....I'm in dead last place.

I hate Deschamps...he took Pogba and Griezmann out. That really did me no favors.

England getting dominated..... ;)

Ha, not sure if serious. England look really good so far, with all the best chances minus a nice Russian header straight to Hart. Hopefully we'll see Vardy in the 2nd half for Sterling.

Edit: missed the wink in your post, so never mind lol

I love being married and being a dad, but these are the days that I reminisce about being young and single lol. My son is little sick though so I got out of strawberry picking with the in-laws and got to watch the Wales game while pretending to focus on playing with him. Now he's taking a lonnnnng nap so I've seen the entire England game, which has been a fun one even without the goals.

Enjoy my man!

Russia controlling all the pace, England chasing the game... And Rooney is the least overrated player on the planet....

I don't watch the EPL really, but it's odd how they talk about Streling, I guess he's fallen off a bit? Last I paid any attention to that pub team league he was killing it for the red pub team.

He's got great pace, and when he uses hs change of pace he is very dangerous. But he is an AWFUL finisher and he lacks a quality touch.

So IMO, the EPL figured him out and he hasn't improved enough to make him worth his price tag. And now, with Pep coming in, I don't know what's going to happen to him, because he is definitely not Pep's type of player. As a mini-Liverpool fan (Barca is obviously my #1, 2, and 3), I was not sorry to see him go and neither were my 'Pool friends.

Dier with a screamer! What a goal!!!

Should be 2 or 3 to 0 England controlling the game and getting some great chances. Getting pumped for the US game tonight, but will be a little disheartening seeing all the great passing and shots in this game then watching how the US plays.

Did the ticker just say that's the first ever goal from a free kick for England? Surely not,...

Rooting against England isn't necessarily rooting for Russia...

Makes no sense..but at the same time, it makes perfect sense.

Come on you Yanks
