Jim For me, there are two must see movies for the Christmas season. First is Bill Murray's "Scrooged." Second is Will Ferrell's "Elf." Those two movies get me into the spirit for the season and help me overcome the drudgery of shopping and spending time with...

My earnings were down yesterday. I didn't tag!

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 25 Jun 08

I've always thought that it didn't matter if we tagged or not. So, yesterday, I didn't tag anything cause it takes so long. And I was down two dollars in earnings from the day before. So, maybe tagging does help. I don't...

Jim I try to tag when I can think of something that is not already used. Sometimes it's hard. I did have a feeling, though, that tagging made a difference. I also have found that the length of responses makes a difference, too. On days when all I can think of is a...

Jim I think it's good to have people of different nationalities. I like to hear opinions with people that live somewhere different than myself. They bring a different view to topics and cause me to open my mind to see things differently. It would be a boring place...

Jim I have given negative ratings, but for those who provide nothing to the discussion. That doesn't mean they have to agree with my point. In fact, sometimes the opposite opinion provides more to the discussion than just more similar thoughts. If they are...

German will win the 2008 Euro Cup?

wangzhuan000 @wangzhuan000 (70) • China 26 Jun 08

Now German is near to champion more and more. Turkey is still respected by all fans. Their willpower is as good as German. Today Spanish VS Russia, will Hiddink be supernatural again? Will Spanish give up his dream? If Russia...

Jim I think Germany proved during the match with Turkey that they have the determination to do what it takes to win. Turkey played better, but Germany has so much talent that only a few moments can make the difference. I think if Germany had played to their...

Euro 2008 - Spain or Russia?

raikkonenjr @raikkonenjr (460) • Malaysia 26 Jun 08

Which team do you think will win the semifinal between Spain and Russia? Spain is really being underrated in every tournament. They have really good players. As for Russia, they have young players with great potential to...

Jim After watching Russia play Netherlands, I think they will win this one. In the meeting during the group stage, Arshavin was not on the pitch. With him there today, Russia are a stronger team. He is a real play maker. He will open up the Spain defense,...

Jim I like to read books that keep me on the edge of my seat. It also has to grab me right off the bat. I haven't found anyone that does a better job of that than Ted Dekker. If you haven't read any of his books, do yourself a favor and check them out. They are...

Germany vs Turky

Todays semi final in Vienna Which team do you think will win?

semi final

1 response

Jim While I think it will be a good match, very fast paced, I think the Germans have just too much talent for the Turks. Three of Turkey's top players are sitting due to yellows. Germany are at full strength and determined. Germany 3-1.

Jim I use Norton 360, which is more than just antivirus. It seems to take up a bit of resources while running in the background at times, but does a good job of protection. I have it on three computers and have found it to be about the best on the market.

do you use a coffee maker when you're making your coffee?

rhane7315 @rhane7315 (5649) • Philippines 24 Jun 08

Jim We have a Cuisinart that grinds the beans before brewing. It provides simply the best coffee I can imagine. It's perfect every time. We use Starbucks beans. We love our maker and wouldn't trade it for anything.

Germany's vistory over Portugal in Eurocup 2008

tikaldema23 @tikaldema23 (96) • Guatemala 20 Jun 08

Wow, I'm really impressed with the Germans. I think Portugal was a favorite to get to the final of the Eurocup in most people's minds. I watched a lot of discussions about it in ESPN and sport newscasts and they all thought so...

Jim I wasn't surprised, at all. I have expected all along for Germany to win the tournament. They are a very technical team, as they demonstrated against Portugal yesterday. They got away from that a bit the last time they played Croatia, but if they meet them...

I can't believe German is so strong!

wangzhuan000 @wangzhuan000 (70) • China 20 Jun 08

Bierhoff is right. German will be strong when he meets strong team. I know Portugal tried his best, but German team has strong willpowder. Maybe they will go further.

Jim Germany has quite a few strong players. Combined, they are one of the most technical teams in the tournament. The fact that almost half the team play for Bayern, German champs, they play together for most of the year. That allows them to know one another and...

Who will be the hot purchase for the next season?

lets wondering after Euro 08 over,who will be the hot purchase for the next season?n who will be the next stars?

4 responses

Jim With the new Barca coach stating that he's not interested in keeping Ronaldinho, Eto'o and Deco, look for Ronaldinho to be the hot commodity. I think teams will start bidding and fighting to get him. The question will be will he stay in Spain or elsewhere in...

who do u think will meet in the finals?????My first team is Portugal and my second team is Spain i love both these teams and i hope they clash in the finals

2 responses

Jim I think it will be Netherlands v Germany. If Netherlands can keep on their roll, they will be very tough to beat. Germany has yet to live up to their hype, but now all is on the line, so I think they will step up and do what is necessary.

Jim I think Germany is a more complete team than Portugal. Without Ronaldo on the field, they lost to Poland. If Germany can shut down Ronaldo, they can win. They have several weapons and a strong defense. Also, their goalkeeper, Lehman, has faced Ronaldo a couple...

Jim I love Mark Martin, but since he is in semi-retirement, I pull for Matt Kenseth each week. Mark got him his ride with Roush Racing. Matt is a smooth driver, races clean and knows how to win. He's making a charge in the points and will make the Chase by the...

Jim From what we have seen so far, it would really be hard to say. Neither team has shown what was expected from them. Both teams were expected to advance from the group, but in the event of a draw, neither may advance. If I had a favorite in the game, I'd like to...

Jim It will depend on which Germany team shows up. If it's the same methodical team that beat Poland, they will be hard to beat, even for Ronaldo. If it's the team that played very sloppy football against Croatia, Portugal should advance. I hope it's the...
