Arsenal somehow managed to cost Switzerland this game by signing their top young midfielder and immediately cursing him to blow it in an important moment.

Wow, after five episodes I have seen very little sign of that dark turn, so I guess it escalates quickly. This makes me a little tentative about finishing the season, but I am enjoying it thus far so I'll give it a shot.

Hang on, are you thinking of Twin Peaks???

I suppose it's a pretty open side of the bracket, and they've been playing well. But it's still a big task and one they have no precedent for. We'll see, it could certainly be an even further breakthrough for them (or another country if Belgium doesn't make it through).

Wha….you mean Cheers???

Yeah I like Stephen's picks, too. Mine are just a potential counter-narrative based on the cynical idea that traditional powers find ways to survive over seemingly better or more exciting squads (which hasn't been as true the last 4 years as it used to be). But either way, I like the narrative of Belgium slowly

Switzerland
Portugal
Wales
Belgium
Germany
Italy
France
England

Yeah, it's funny, very of it's time.

It's basically Spinal Tap for rap.

Jeez, that's new. I don't even know then. Honestly I think if they were still believing in him as the top guy, they'd cover it up.

First off, it was cool to see.

I'm four episodes in and this has been a pretty impressive season so far. It's juggling seemingly the most characters and issues and subplots of any of the four seasons, but has been managed to be more gripping and narratively clearer than seasons 2 or 3. Hopefully it stays this tight throughout.

It's a new, Tron-like world in print media.

The two people in that video look like they have guns pointed at them just offscreen.

Albania has seemingly a great counterattack, at least in this game. They barely possess the ball, but when they send their 3 guys into attack, they really go for it. It may knab them a surprise ticket to the Elimination Rounds, too.

Read it in Pam's voice and it works.
