14. No I am not

they put food in two boxes, and each box has the flag of the two opposing teams. The box he goes for first is supposedly going to win the game.

Hell the youtube must have some video of him choosing. Even mister I don't like Soccer Olbermann showed it on the teevee machine.

The animal has a 100% hit so far.

8. Can't see that

They say Paul picked Germany for every match but this one.

10. The Spanish Ambassador to Jamaica is

on TV crying. He's been part of the commentary team from the beginning. He's crying because his grandfather died last year and did not live to see Spain win a world cup.

He's so freaking handsome that I'd volunteer to comfort him - but I don't think hubby would be too pleased :evilgrin:

22. I don't believe octopus is 100%.

There was a following statement prior to the game that it had been wrong once before and they were hoping it would be wrong this time.

4. I'm gonna cook Paul over a charcoal fire - after marinating -

And eat him.

[MineralMan]

7. Indeed.

Tacos de pulpo!

(repeated from #5)

12. And for dinner? Octopus stew

15. So will the octopus be wrong or right on the final game?
