Today we have a special guest here with us from across the pond.
He's come to us today from all the way over in Canada!
Everyone welcome, FireDragonMonkey [wait for applause]

Dear viewers, thank you.
I must apologise though, as I know very little about Football
Even still, I will do my best.

I see. Nevertheless, let's still have a little fun.
Shall we start off with some predictions?

Canadian as I am, I feel a bit of an outsider to the Euro Cup.
As well, I don't have a "national team" to root for.
Still, I enjoy a good game.
To that end, Group A: I choose Germany.

That seems as little surprise; they're in the lead in their group.
How did you come to that decision?
Even the leaders get upset.

Mainly I choose them because I don't have any blades from the other
European countries.
And I don't know enough about ~~soccer~~ football. Now for Group B I picked Italy,
Since I've got this aftershave from there.

Ok, let me stop you there. You're making your predictions,
From wetshaving products you own?!

Since it made sense to me; yes indeed I am.
And for Group C, I chose England.
Considering I've got this shaving cream in a new scent I
Really wanted to try.
I also chose France for Group D.
First because Cesar razors don't get enough attention;
I also chose it because I already chose England for the soap.
Can't shave with two soaps now can I?
Even though I wouldn't be surprised if it became a future challenge.

Have you any reasonably chosen predictions?!
And what of the other two groups?
Something less random I hope...

Being honest, I completely forgot about Group E.
Even still, I hear Baume.Be makes good products I'll need to try.
Ending off with Group F, I've chosen Portugal because of this
Nice brush I've got from Semogue.

Dear viewers, I sincerely apologise for subjecting you to such
Embarrassment from someone who knows so little about football
That they would choose their predictions for the Euro Cup
Entirely based on wetshaving products they owned.
Really, I've never heard of a more unusual and unreasonable
Method for selecting teams before.
In all my days...
Needless to say that FireDragonMonkey will not be invited back.
Even if we did need a correspondent from Canada.
David Moyes' unsanctioned clone, signing off.

!Do you dare spin the wheel of destiny?!<
