No, he got the finals wrong in the 2008 European Championship, and also Germany vs Croatia the same year during the group stage. That's two matches out of the thirteen he has predicted beforehand wrong, giving him a success rate of about 84.6%. He got the only other final he ever did wrong, so the amount of finals he's gotten right is 0%, and this is still the only game he has ever done without Germany so his non-Germany record of predictions is 0%.

How about we compromise on spoiled psychopath?

I like to add to this discussion from Holland where it's legalized by saying that I know a fairly large group of regular pot smokers that are, without a doubt, a huge crapload dumber than everyone else I know -- with the exception of the drinkers, who are even worse! Not sayin' it should be legalized because of that. Just sayin' that the pot users and drinkers I know are all complete dumbasses. I think that's good cause to getting rid of them both, honestly. I drink a few beers now and then, but I wouldn't miss it.

The article says their relationship was never serious, though. Sounds to me like a spoiled brat who didn't get what he wanted.

The dutch tv commentator said Klose had a back injury. Dunno much else about it. I was amused by the crowd booing for Suarez. I do agree with Sawyer that the German indifference towards Forl

The ads I've seen were fantastic in the way of getting me curious about it, though.

I swear, if Spain wins I'm having Calamari. That was a fantastic match, though, especially on the part of Forlan. That man is an excellent player.

That's because unlike all other videos, in this one one side was placed right in front of his face. Tampering, and for attempting to set fate like that the punishment is a loss. This is also the first one Paul did without Germany. So, no precedent to see if he's right on this.

He was a good player, but a monumental moron. My favorite of his quotes: "Italians can

Yep! I'm now a certified media designer!

I'm getting an anti-Holland impression from this thread. Netherlands so far are completely undefeated in this tournament, don't write us off so quickly. Actually, I missed the match between Spain and Germany (graduation ceremony took place at the same time), can anyone give me a quick rundown?

Recap - Wednesday - Mom's 50th Birthday and Graduation Ceremony Thursday - Got a super cute kitten! Today - Exhausted! But gotta work.

He was not. I wish it was.

What? He was? I must have missed that. Anyways that referee did try his best to let Uruquay score 3-3... Yeah, those last few minutes smelt a bit of paid-off-ref, but then I remembered he was an incompetent twit throughout the match to both teams' disadvantages.

You're lucky he was at least watching the same game. The dutch commentator was just talking out of his arse mostly, said lots of things that didn't even happen.

Extremely entertaining match that played out pretty fairly not because but despite of the ref, which is one of the worst I've ever seen. Still, good match, and GO HOLLAND! Can anyone tell me what happened in those last few minutes, though? It was complete uncontrollable chaos. The arbiter team was scarily incompetent. And Germany better win, Holland needs to beat them in a rematch for 1974. Nobody cares about Spain.

Well, that kind of makes sense, because that's where Book 1: Water ended. Still, too bad.

There were also less good moments. Actually, I thought that bit was pretty funny.

Has anybody read his book, Mogworld? Is it any good? It doesn't seem to be available to me here in the Netherlands because I don't have a credit card.

The truth?

Yeah, the reviews I've read have been horrible. It's got, like, a 10% rotten rating on Rotten Tomatoes. That's one of the lowest I've ever seen. And even the positive reviews go like "it's slightly entertaining despite it's many shortcomings". It's weird to see how M Night has self destructed, although I have to admit I never liked The Sixth Sense, Unbreakable was fantastic and Signs had it's moments of brilliance.

Yes, Wals obviously did a lot to romanticize the British Empire. I like how the only way you can debunk someone is by putting words in their mouth first. None if you agree with the statement. Even when you agree with him LoF is still pointless.

Ah, that worked! Thanks. I didn't realize Naruto was still going on. I don't even recognize that character. I expect this is a climactic battle sequence, or something? Anime shows really don't get the budget's they deserve considering the size of their audience, and climactic battle sequences often end up looking pretty odd. I remember the fight sequence between Naruto and Sasuke at the Valley of the End had some pretty ridiculous animation, my favorite part of which was Naruto jumping towards his opponent and being animated as a simple shape of a bullet with a few color splashes. All in all, I'm still pretty glad I stopped following that show. Does it ever lead anywhere? It just feels like so much random, unconnected plot threads and fight scenes.
