I was rooting for the Germans during Euro 2008 ... mainly because it's kinda fun to say the name "Bastian Schweinsteiger" over and over.
The Germans lost 1-0 to Spain in the final on Sunday. Sure, I'm a little bummed out, but it was far from the worst loss the Germans have ever suffered on the soccer pitch.
Remember that time during the Second World War when the Germans lost to a plucky, ragtag group of Allied prisoners of war?
Or how about back in the 70s when the Greeks beat them 1-0 in Munich?
As always, a little perspective goes a long way.
