Long time readers will remember how the Zune Team played in a football futbol soccer tournament last year. A quick backstory: Each year, folks from E&D (Entertainment and Devices, the division of which Zune is a part) global sales/marketing folks in from all over the world come to Redmond, to talk strategy across the entire lineup.
