Paul the Octopus
I am sure most Germans would be vying for Paul's blood now. They would not have taken Paul so seriously when it predicted Germany's loss to Serbia in the league stage. But Paul shot to limelight after it went to the box with the other box having England's flag. Then it became the darling when it ignored the in-form Messi and co. But now ??? AM quite sure Vuvujelas and Jabulanis are not making headlines any more....After the white and black brigade lost to the Euro champs, Paul would have become a villain of sort. poor thing..Come 11th and we would have the new champs crowned. A big game on cards. Am certainly luking fwd to it. Honestly I never expected this orange-roja battle. One is in the final after 32 yrs and another a first-timer in the biggest match in 4 yrs. This makes the grand finale a very interesting prospect. My limited competencies don;t allow me to sit down and do a postmortem of what has happened in the rainbow land until now. However, I have really been chasing the news on Paul's million $ predictions quite eagerly. Every time we would talk abt law of average catching up Paul which in fact is not something to happen as yet. Villa and Sneijder would also battle for the golden boot.Now we have 2 days to rest before getting glued to espn on 11th. oh oh- we also have a match in between to decide who is placed 3rd. Btw, do we even care to remembers who comes 3rd !!!!!
