Beginning to think the referee has been given a large brown envelope from the Spanish! (Another idiot ref)

it is the four birds of the four elements, their is also the four dragons and four wizards of the elements also  , none of it is related to football, but the grand fight between the elements can be simialr to the intensity of a football match and spessially semi-finals between old frinds and alies

yeah thier is just to much win in all the four countrys, no cry babays, no divas (well Ronlado is, but he is also too cool 4 school, and a fantastic player golly he is good and make it look effortless), Spain is like a meat grinder, grinds the opunants with flurry of passes and ball drilling, also Xavi Hernands is a demi-god, and Iniesta is not far of, and omg Alonso omg omg, Fahbregas, omg omg omg Casillas,, also Italy, Pirlo so arogant it looks okey and  , his penality was just so  . and Germany gomogmgomgog, so much awesome, solid and technical not just a machine but a living organisme who maltractate its oponents with sharp, fast and vicios snappy attack harpoons, it is exactly like this image

You're right, my mistake. Well, Germany and Spain in the finals wouldn't be a big surprise to me. Yes, it's Germanic peoples against Romans like in the old days, only more civilised. I was reading a book about the Germanics conquering Rome. Quite interesting. Already a lot of failing European politics in those days, it had more sides to it than you might think. Spain-Portugal, yes, neighbours... Don't know what the Catalonians will do as supporters. I'm for Germany now. Thursday I'm going to watch the game with a German who's living not far from me.

Well, that sounds more reliable to me than an octopus. I'm going to give my expectations for the semi-finals: Germany beats Portugal, and Spain beats Italy. Yes, I know, kind of a risky prediction

Hey, I was right with my expectation from 5 days ago.  Well, for the biggest part, it was no real surprise.

should we start a murky betting firm, or a oracle phone service??

Let's do both. It will give us some murky money  Of course, we still have to predict right.

Sounds dangerous. I tell you what, I have a whole swimming pool full of octopuses and octopus Pierluigi with his 3d tentacle from the left always gets the right ball out of the bowl with teams. What do you pick this time, Pierluigi? England? Oops, had forgotten to get some of the teams out. You should have kept your tentacle from the bowl, Pierluigi. You should have known this.
