Yeah, but it's only fitting that the refs mess up during the final as well.  At least they was continuity, bad calls throughout the tournament.  |
LeBron is being hired as a FIFA referee now that Cleveland doesn't want him anymore.

I'd watch just to see the midget, er, little person.

Octopus oracle Paul to retire
BERLIN – No more World Cup, no more octopus oracle.
Paul, the octopus who became a pop culture sensation by correctly predicting the outcome of as many World Cup matches as he has legs �\ all seven of Germany's games plus the Spain-Netherlands final �\ is going to retire.
The intuitive invertebrate will "step back from the official oracle business," Tanja Munzig, a spokeswoman for the Sea Life aquarium in Oberhausen, told AP Television News.
"He won't give any more oracle predictions �\ either in football, nor in politics, lifestyle or economy," she said. "Paul will get back to his former job, namely making children laugh."
However, Paul took one last curtain call on Monday. Aquarium employees presented the octopus with a golden cup �\ similar to the official World Cup trophy.
Although the cup was garnished with three mussels, Paul ignored it for several minutes as it was lowered into his tank.
He finally picked off one mussel and devoured it in front of television cameras.
Paul won worldwide attention as he called all of Germany's games correctly �\ including its semifinal defeat by Spain. He crowned his career by forecasting correctly that Spain would beat Holland in Sunday's final.
