Minnesota Vikings News and Links: Wednesday June 23rd, 2021

Wednesday Open Thread

Good Morning!

Not much NFL News to speak of. We have four Euro 2020 games today. My prediction will be wins for Spain, Germany and France. I’ll predict a tie for Sweden and Poland. France is already through to the next round so there is a chance they rest some players and bring in some off the bench. Belated congrats to HUNViking for the Austrian team advancing.

11AM CST

Sweden v Poland

Slovakia v Spain

2PM CST

France v Portugal

Germany v Hungary

Again, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:

-No discussion of politics or religion

-No feeding of the trolls

-Leave the gender hatred at the door

-Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)

-Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags

-No pictures that could get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer

-If you can’t disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away

-While navigating the open thread, just assume it’s sarcasm.

-Beware of manbearpig
