World Cup 2010 - one thread to rule them all

Was cheering for Germany yesterday, but up until Spain finally scored, it looked like the Germans were just hanging on for dear life and hoping for a shootout. You see? This is what you get for f*cking with that octopus, I don't know why you even bothered. The octopus has already been there, it has already seen the outcomes that are yet to be.
 
I'm just wondering if they will let it predict the final..

It'd predict Spain anyways, as someone pointed out it's drawn to red and yellow, although if I was being really cynical I'd suggest they pre-trained it to go for Germany and it just occassionally fucks up.
I'm told it happens to be very good at predicting Finland's results too as it never chooses them to win. :D
 
My earlier prediction was for the final game. That is the scenario that i envisioned. NOT based on a favorite because i dont relly have one personally.

I just heard that it predicted Germany to win Saturday.
They said it will predict the final tomorrow.. :eek:
 
Of course, Uruguays flag is blue and white so it would not pick it. :)

I'm curious as to which flag it will pick for the final. Both have red in them..
Of course, the Spanish flag has a lot more red but ours is striped like the German flag *hopes*

:p

Edit: Ehh.. Ok, the Spanish flag is striped too. In a slightly different manner though :rolleyes:

I want to see it predict Canada beating Argentina.

Well, we tied Brazil 1-1 in an exhibition match back in the early 90's, I was in attendance when it happened. Romario and Bebeto were both playing, even Pele was there in the broadcast booth, it was essentially the same team that went on to win the World Cup in '94. They took it easy on us and scored the first goal, then after we tied it they got desperate to avoid the embarassment, but it was too late and we held on :p

P.S. I'd love to see Canada play Argentina, if that jackass Marajuona is coaching.
 
no prediction from me ... paul gave it already.
to be honest, i could understand if we will lose, nobody wants to fight for the golden pineapple :(
