If you speak Czech, you should know what “Méd’a” means. My friend’s hubby made a small Czech jersey(away 06-07 w/ the backnumber 11 and says NEDVĚD) and let the tiny stuffed bear wear it as a talisman for the Czech squad and for me. Will be shipped out to me in a couple of days. The bear still needs shorts, socks and the mop-esque hair! LOL.

Since England isn’t qualified for EURO2008, most pubs aren’t showing the memorable opening match Switzerland – Czech Republic which majorly pisses me off. Thanks to my best friend into the Dutch(yikes!), I am going to manage to catch the match. on the 7th of June we have 3 important matches in a row. The first one is Hidetoshi Nakata’s “Take Action! 2008 +1″ (a sort of a charity match with guest players include Edgar Davids, Clarence Seedorf, Marco Marchionni and more. Then the World Cup qualifiers Japan – Oman comes on, and FINALLY EURO 2008! I’m almost broke but to show my gratitude towards my “Oranje” friend(though she has a soft spot for Baroš and she has a Czech Republic jersey w/ his name on the back) , I’ll bring some Czech beer and make her cook some Czech meals as well as Currywurst(German sausages with curry sauce on) and Pomme Fritz(french fries). Naturally, as my hand is not working, cooking has got to be her part. I can see that I’ll shout at her “NO! Czechs won’t cook that way and you totally suck at cooking!” Anyway we’re gonna turn her apartment into a stadium sure as hell. And absolutely my shopping list excludes Port wine, Lindt chocolate and Turkish coffee.

Well again off to bed… will post my predictions tomorrow in the last minute…
Kdo neskáče není Čech, hop, hop, hop!!!

Just spoke with someone in Seefeld over the phone and according to what he said it’s all quiet on the Czech front. Nobody in the Czech squad suffers serious injury and they are doing fine. Cant’ wait to fly out to Austria seeing how my attorney claims for loss and wins decent amount compensation since I got my hand crushed by this old lady riding a bike. I’m so tired of making photocopies and asking for receipts for everything I shop, and now I’m broke.Plus, it just came to my attention that my home phone w/ facsimile function passed away(RIP) and my GSM mobile’s terminal is dying which means I may have to file my civil damages suit.

Seeing Sionko succeeding the backnumber 7 from Šmicer turning into a TV reporter and after reviewing the content of Czech Republic – Scotland, I’m getting less pessimistic. The Czech boys won’t get injured as my damn phones went 6-feet-under and half dead.

Looking forward to fly out to Austria after paying my attorney and everything’s cleared. Just can’t keep my ass settled at some pub watching the matches on a huge screen w/ a pint of Heineken that costs me 9 EUR/pint among the ppl who dont know the sh*t about football.
