Congrats to Spain, the 2010 World Cup Champions. I almost congratulated them in advance last night because of Paul's selecting them to win, but I didn't want to jinx anything. I think we need to have Paul pick other major sporting events and then put money down on those things, we could do well for ourselves. lol

If anyone can say they were surprised by Spain's victory, then I can tell them that they haven't been paying attention to football in the past decade.

A few trivia tidbits:

Spain is the first team to win the World Cup after losing their opening game.

Spain's 8 goals are the fewest by any World Cup winner, three fewer than the previous mark.

Spain is the first European team to win the World Cup outside of Europe.


May one of these useless facts win you a free beer someday.

Spain deserved to win. I'm not sure they played better, but they sure outlasted the martial arts match Holland tried to play. Hey, can't blame the Dutch...if you can't beat them...beat them up.

I feel sorry for Howard Webb, probably the best official in the world. If he had flashed a couple of well deserved reds in the first half to the Dutch players, he would have been the talk of the game. Since he didn't show the reds, he is the talk of the game. Poor guy.

Oh, by the way...only one team finished the World Cup without losing a match...without looking, wanna guess?

Heading for the great escape.
Football is becoming a game for tarts, tackling is a big part of the game its only that twat Baltter and his corrupt side kicks that want to turn it into a non contact sport. Webb is yet another useless official in an organisation that is morally bankrupt.

The Dutch had every right to get stuck into the lady boys of the Spanish midfield.
