Paul the Octopus does it again !
Great match today between Spain and Germany, intensely fought in the midfield.
Sunday should be a great final between two offensive minded teams ! Vamos España!

^^^ When I want my futbol picks, I turn to Paul the Octopus.
Thought the Germans would win, oh well.....
Prediction for Sunday:
Holland 2, Spain 1
"So many vows. They make you swear and swear. Defend the King, obey the King, obey your father, protect the innocent, defend the weak. But what if your father despises the King? What if the King massacres the innocent? It's too much. No matter what you do, you're forsaking one vow or another."
I think it's going to be a great match-up. Super great play for both sides.
My prediction ...
Netherlands score first.
Spain ties before the half.
Spain scores late in the game.
Spain wins 2-1.
Good luck to both teams, it's been a heck of a Cup this year!
( and actually, thanks to you all - it's been fun to be able to chat with you all about it - none of my friends are into it anymore - once the US got bumped. So, it's just my girlfriend and I ... cheering for good play and sportsmanship - since we don't have an emotion commitment to either team at this point )

Did you also cringe when Demy de Zeeuw (Netherlands) got kicked in the face by Caceres (Urugay)?

Yeah.... I think it was a team "OUCH !!! Now that had to hurt!".
And honestly, what do you think, folks? I thought the officiating was horrible / has been horrible through-out the tourney.
Yellow cards seemed to be given at random on some days.

Demy was actually unconscious for a moment and he also had some of his teeth 'dislocated'. Luckily he didn't break his jaw (which is what they thought had happened at first). And yes I agree with you about the card randomness.

Not after Sneijder has bitten its head offA Spanish company will buy the octopus for 30000 euro
Only 2 hours away from the big match ! I don't care who wins, I just want to see an awesome match
yeah that Octopus is something else. I don't really care who wins, as long as it's an interesting game. The problem is that Spain has won their last few games 1-0. At least Germany was doing lopsided interesting wins. I really wish they were the ones here, I think it would have made a more interesting game. I hope I'm wrong.

Holy shit, I hope the Netherlands win. I just bet my friend's wife. If Netherlands wins she has to read the series I say.Guess which one that will be? But if she wins I have to read the Twilight series. (She is a raving fan)
Fuck, maybe I shouldn't have made this bet. Fucken octopus.

Spain is a deserving winner. They've been playing the best football in the world ever since their 2008 Eurocup victory, and now they finally have something to show for it. What a great match, and what a great tournament !
Holy shit, I hope the Netherlands win. I just bet my friend's wife. If Netherlands wins she has to read the series I say.
Fuck, maybe I shouldn't have made this bet. Fucken octopus.Sorry John.
Definitely.
