Thing is, if you don't have your country there (Scotland got cuffed by some mickey mouse team or other in the playoffs..hehe), you look at the quality of footie and detached entertainment value, rather than being naturally pumped up watching your own team in action.
Most games I watched sober where ok, very few, (if any) have been classics like, say, France - Germany.
None so far will be remembered, except by the countries involved, as historic (IMHO)
