    I think one of the shockers in any of the groups in Euro 2012 Qualifying, is in Group C, where Italy is at the top of the group and the shocker of all shockers, Estonia is in 2nd place, with Serbia, Slovania in 3rd and 4th.N.Ireland and Faroe Islands make the rest of the group.

    SSG: Shes hot. Fake titties and all its all good. Kinda looks like Kirsten Dunst.

    Real shocker is that Bosnia can(will) advance to Euro ahead of France,it was suppose to be a easy walk trough for France but now they have more to lose in this last game than Bosnia.Pressure is on France and even though they are playing at home it wont be easy,15000 Bosnia fans are expected at the game.

    Denamark-Portugal is another one interesting one.

    I hope France wins so that Begovic doesn't get to play in Euro2012. though a lot of exciting players in Bosnia squad. probably as good as it will get for them in a long time

    No, all we have is the press release on several different sites. Given that they are sponsoring both MLS and the USNT, their spending on this is likely quite significant. They are already an MLS sponsor, but this extends it, likely for a higher amount.

    Now if the CSA could get on board these deals, that would be something, but it will require them getting someone good on board to get those deals.

    CSA should really try to ride the coat tails of USSF on sponsorship deals and stuff

    Brek Shea linked to Liverpool and Man City

    Also apparently had a bid from Schalke turned down. Though his agent is Barry MacLean...

    I dont think anything is in line to happen for Canada until they restructure which from what I recall was 4 years away in 2015?

    Canadian companies should actually be investing in the Canadian program. Its national sponsorship, but also very low cost international marketing potential. Maybe "Roots" or Canadian Tire or even Shaw Comm.

    One of the bull*hit rulings earlier in the campaign is that serbia got penalized in their away match(in italy) for a problem that arose between the italian and serbian supporters. UEFA gave italy an automatic 3-nil victory....what's even more unheard of is that this penalty was given to the Away team, when in the rules it states that safety and security are the responsiblity of the HOME team! UEFA cost Serbia 3pts!

    pretty sure the situation was from flares being tossed onto the field...the only flares were coming from the serb supporters...the serb fans wouldn't even listen to their own players to calm down...they even attacked one of their own players on the team bus...pretty sure that's not italy's fault...doesn't matter, they'd have lost anywaz, maybe not 3-0

    Threatening the lives of their own players and throwing flares on the pitch is definitely the Serbian hooligans fault.

    I prefer that they miss out on the World Cup. Nothing against Bosnians here, but I will be cheering for everyone they play in WCQ.

    Per SBJ, Panasonic was a USNT sponsor, dropped in 2008 and now are back, mainly to due to the big response to the USWNT and WWC11 (yes that is what they said, so this is a good example of how a good run in the [W]WC = $). The MLS deal was changed slightly. They are a national sponsor but not a local one (eg teams can set up their own local electronics sponsorships). SUM thinks that Panasonic will have specific local deals with the teams that use their electronic field signage equipment. Total deal estimated in low 7 figures, so not super huge but big as they go. Every national sponsorship deal signed or renewed makes it easier to get some others.
