Who here’s been watching Euro 2008? All you English lads, I’m sure, and right from your living room.

Anyway, I only mention the Euros because of this neat camera technology ESPN has this year, Axis. It’s a 360-degree camera the network uses to show instant replays. It makes plain ol’ telestrators look genuinely pedestrian in comparison.

Moving on, I bet those of you who had money on Holland prior to the tournament’s start are happily holding onto your betting receipts right about now. Speaking of which, just how illegal is online betting here in the U.S.? Anyone with any experience in the matter, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
