Spain Won. Goddamn Octopus Right Again

[scbunchy]

To those talking about the Spanish diving I'd like to point to Arjen Robben, a man who has mastered the art of falling down while grabbing his right knee. Right knee, every time. I still think he's a legend of a player though.

12 Yellow cards to the Dutch and the Spanish were playing dirty? Wrong! De Jong's Sparta kick should have been a straight red as should most of Van Bommel's challenges, that guy is a thug.

The biggest disappointment though was the ref. He should have been less lenient than he was, not just to the Dutch but to the Spanish as well. The goal kick he awarded when it should have been a corner was a disgrace.

Overall Spain were the better team and I'm glad they won and I'm especially glad it didn't go to penalties.

Edit: Props to the octopus, guess I went off topic XD

Octopus? What octopus? What octopus where? Seriously, all this talk of a psychic octopus is confusing me.

I WAS rooting for Netherlands, but I am American and therefore don't care about football/soccer very much.

Smarter than a dog, able to see the polarisation of light, able to eject mucus-ball decoys FROM ITS ANUS, and its skin is a high-speed, 500dpi colour LCD screen used for camoflague and communication.

And now it's psychic, too?

There's this octopus in the Berlin Zoo that predicts which team will win by opening a can of food marked with the flag of the winning team I believe it has been one hundred per cent correct in its predictions.

On another note peta wants the octopus released saying that keeping it in the tank is cruel.... so yeah.

Octopus should confirm the 2012 myth when it's done with its World Cup stint.

 

[Caligulove]

I'm actually hoping that someone will try to study the octopus to learn more about it and its psychic powers or something.

Would be hilarious.

FUCK THE OCTOPUS! NETHERLANDS SHOULD HAVE WON. NOT THE BUCKET OF GREASE THAT IS SPAIN. DIVING IS NOT FOOTBALL.

1. It's Soccer, not football.

Silly Puerto Rican man! It's not "soccer", that's just what the Yanks and most of Asia call it.

The octopus is going to overthrow C'thulu...
That'll meen it'll have more time to spar with me...
Excellent.

 

[Grahav]

The octopus is now king of Spain.

But it sure was a yamn match. The dutch keep beating the spanish up, and the latter didn't know how to strike to the goal.

Spain deserved the vitory for keeping up the offensive

But not only for the better quality of their last game, but also for all the world cup, Uruguay and Germany deserved the trophey more.


Ah well, congratulations to Spain and their new king.

 

[T-Bone24]

Either the octopus is psychic... or omnipotent.

One way or another, it must be worshipped.

 

[ntw3001]

I guess there's no need to hold football matches any more then. Just ask the octopus who wins and skip all the 'playing out the tournament' fuss.

 

[BringBackBuck]

Congrats to Spain.

That means only 1 team remained undefeated at the end of the World Cup:

NEW ZEALAND! Go the All Whites.

 

[Fallen-Angel Risen-Demon]

It's not an octopus.

It's Lusca's nephew.

Don't be silly, everyone agrees it's Cthulhu's son.

Pah! C'thulu ain't all that! It told me themself! In our last meeting. Being THE machine does have it's benefits.

But winning is

A few seconds ago Spain won the World Cup. To those who don't give a shit about football, an octopus correctly predicted the outcome of a few matches in the World Cup, including this last one.

So, what are your thoughts about this? Are you with me in the "FOR FUCKS SAKE GODDAMNIT WHY THE FUCK COULDN'T NETHERLANDS WIN!" crowd, the "HOLY FUCKING SHIT SPAIN WON WOHOHO LET'S GET WASTED!" or the "HOLY FUCKING SHIT THAT OCTOPUS WAS RIGHT LET'S KILL IT AND DISECT IT!"

EDIT: I guess I should put my opinion about the game. To be honest, the game was intense. I was cheering for Netherlands the whole way through but my dreams were shattered by Iniesta, that bastard.

People and their sad voodo magic beliefs...really pathetic. Leave the bloody octopus alone!

1. It's Soccer, not football.

Football = Foot Ball, what you call football has neither. You use your hands and the object you throw around is not the shape of a ball - as George Carlin would say - it should be called Handegg!
