    No, they said some of your reasoning was foolish. I predicted Spain to win today as well, I'm pretty sure a few people here did.

    I dont think anyone said you were foolish for predicting spain to win, just as to how sure u were. I dont think even you could have predicted that spain would have controlled the game that much.

    I hope the final is a good match (it usually isnt though)

    That doesn't make you Jesus. It simply means you tossed a guess at a 50/50 and struck lucky.

    So gutted! But the german team had too much respect for spain the entire game. I guess the team IS too young afterall, but i expect this team to come far in the years to come, PROVIDED all goes as well as it has so far.

    Well I predicted Holland in the final, beating Brazil in the quarters. So, I'm not saying that I'm awesome, but I could not see Germany beating Holland. I was proved right. I also think the Spanish are going to win the World Cup, but I'm still supporting Holland. Regardless of my predictions and what people were saying about it, I think it is really amazing that the final is being played between two sides that have never won the World Cup. It is going to be an amazing match. My friend & I are trying to get final tickets to see it. And I think both of us will be supporting the House of Orange.

    It means you're on the same level as an octopus. Enjoy!

    Apparently the Germans insulted the octopus and his mother. And they've been making octopus recipes. He's not very popular in Germany at the moment.

    I can't believe people are believing all this crap. This is the same as that odds involving scam. The basis of it is this:

    1. You send a million people the outcome of the tournament, with every possible result, but leave out the finale.
    2. 0.001% will have gotten the exact right results. This amazes the reader, and wants to know the finale prediction, so he can bet on it.
    3. You ask for money in return for the prediction.
    4. Profit.

    This is merely the animal variation on it. There are probably hundreds of animals doing wacky stuff, the octopus is just the only one that has been right (and only 80% of the time).

    You may ask, what do they get out of it. Well, as always, the answer is money. Do you really not think thousands will go to see octo paul for a small price?

    You scoff now, clog-boy, but when Octradamus goes on to rule the world in an underwater palace where people wait on him hand and tentacle in return for filling in their football pools, you'll sit there in a darkened corner of your room, thinking 'I should have believed'
