I just found out that he's receiving death threats. But I, for one, welcome our prognosticating octosquid overlords.
I didn't realise that it had accurately predicted the Spain defeat... Their power is more awesome that I ever imagined, they can see the future.

They used him in qualifying too. He has a 70% success rate.
And. Good news!
Larissa Riquelme Will Run Nude As 'Present' To Players
Larissa Riquelme, the captivating lingerie model who enchanted soccer fans around the world with her enthusiastic support of the Paraguayan World Cup team, saw her pledge to run nude through the streets of Paraguay end in heartbreak when Spain defeated her favorite team in the quarterfinals last weekend.
The beautiful Paraguayan has good news for her eager fans who were disappointed by the loss. Riquelme says she will run naked through Asuncion, even though Paraguay did not win the World Cup. The curvy model says her nude run "will be a present to all of the players, and for all the people in Paraguay to enjoy."

Spain haven't been happy with their 1-0s though, it's not like they just pack the defence and pass it around the back as soon as they score. Chances are still created they just havn't been clinical enough to finish them, if Pedro and Torres had passed when Spain were two on one at the back it would have been 3-0 against Germany, they just kept overplaying it.
Death by Sushi Bar eh? The World Cup sure brings out the passionate amongst us. Come on this cephalopod oracle is a gold mine. I wonder if he picks other sports like the ponies or college basketball...![]()

Not only he got the loss against spain right, but also the one against Serbia. =O
And I agree, Spain's games have been some of the most boring games in the world cup. But oh well, the last cup both France and Italy practically just defended themselves.

Spain. Holland might as well go home now.

The animals are in agreement; the parakeet in Singapore predicts Spain as well.
Hang on, the parakeet predicts Holland...
Remember though, the squids only other major upset in a tournament was another final featuring Spain, when it predicted they would lose the Euro 2008 final. Maybe the balance will be restored.

There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

Re: Pursuit of happiness
Have you just been dumped?
I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

Hmm, if you add up the votes for Holland to win and Spain to win you get 29, but only 28 people have voted. Somebody is playing silly buggers.

My first, only and partisan predictions:
2 - 0

I predict a hard-fought, ultra-tactical game that ends up 2-1 for Holland.
I vote for Villa to score for Spain, with the goals by Robben and Van Persie. Sneijder won't score, he will be guarded really well.

A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

ESPAÑA for the cup!
Making it to the final for the first time (after playing a semi-final for the second time ever) has been treat enough but I'll probably order a vuvuzela if they win the final game.They've got my heart not least with their beautiful football but especially for Barça forming more than half the squad.
One of my closest friends is a fan of the Netherlands btw. Watching the final together shall be fun.
