This piece in Toronto Life, written by a (purported) high-spending, globe-trotting 31-year-old pharmacist who lives with his parents, is so plainly framed to bait haters that it seems a shame to even go at it.

Gareth Bale Is Owning Euro 2016
There are certainly bigger and better teams in Euro 2016 than Wales, a tiny country of just over 3 million people whose national team is making its first appearance in a major tournament since the 1958 World Cup.
