    Greg playing for the first time in Marseille, home to France's most passionate supporters. He's made the trip and I'm thinking he'll start (didn't by a paper, and haven't found anything on the net)- we'll see in a few minutes.

    This is the Sunday night game here, so Vanney's going to get some national exposure, also the first time he's played the nationally televised game.

    Gametime 20h45

    Wierd...they were just showing the team meeting on the field before the match and the coach was saying how they needed to yell and scream because the wind and crowd will make it hard to hear.

    He left and the captain said: "We are here to have a good time. It doesn't matter if we win or lose, as long as we have fun."

    After all that, Vanney's on the bench.

    Midwest, the real one.
    Does that stadium reconfigure for a track?
