SOME OF YOU MIGHT HAVE HEARD OF A CERTAIN CEPHALOPOD NAMED PAUL (LIKE THE GREAT SAINT AND WRITER OF EPISTLES) WHO HAS SHOWN AN UNCANNY ABILITY TO PREDICT THE RESULTS OF WORLD CUP MATCHES, AS OBSERVERS SEE IT. I JUST THOUGHT I WOULD LET YOU ALL KNOW THAT THIS PAUL, IN FACT, IS NOT MAKING "PSYCHIC PREDICTIONS" AT ALL, BUT RATHER, CONVEYING TRUTHS FROM ON HIGH.
BECAUSE BELIEVE IT OR NOT, PAUL THE OCTOPUS IS A PULPO PROPHET OF THE LORD. HIS NAME IS ONE OF THOSE INSCRIBED IN THE MIND OF EVERY ANGEL. THUS THE OCTOPUS IS MERELY REFLECTING THE OMNISCIENCE OF GOD IN HIS ACCURATE CHOICES....ALSO GOD TOTALLY WANTED SPAIN TO WIN, OBVIOUSLY.
GABRIEL WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN THE ONE TO TAKE CARE OF PROTECTION DETAIL, BUT SINCE HE WAS OF COURSE MIA, I ENDED UP TAKING UP THE JOB (WHICH OBVIOUSLY HAS BEEN PRETTY EASY SO FAR, NOT SO MANY THINGS ATTACKING HIM IN A GLASS CAGE BY HIMSELF).
BUT ANY BITTER GERMANY FAN WHO HARBORS ILL WILL TOWARDS THIS PROPHET BETTER BEWARE, IF THEY PLAN TO TRY ANYTHING ON HIM....
