Contest: World Cup Final

Hey gang ... let's have a contest ... see who can guess the final score of the final World Cup game. OK? OK !!!!

I'll go first ... let's see ... the Italians will score ... ummm ... the Italians ... ahhh ... errrr ... they'll score ... ummm ... they'll score 0 goals.

And the French ... the French ... the French ... they'll score ... ummm ... they'll also score 0 goals.

Then there'll be an overtime ... and the Italians will score ... ahhhhhhh ... 0 goals ... and the French ... hmmmmm ... they'll score ... oooooh ... they'll score 0 goals.

Then ... they'll stop playing soccer ... because these top soccer players in the world are too delicate to keep playing until somebody wins by scoring actual goals ... and they'll then play Can-The-Goalie-Guess-Which-Way-I'll-Kick-It-From-Ten-Feet-Away.

And the entire World Soccer Cup won't be decided by playing soccer ... but by playing this other game ... Can-The-Goalie-Guess-Which-Way-I'll-Kick-It-From-Ten-Feet-Away.

Anyway ... that's my guess. What's yours?

I could see how much overall hell I catch by saying something about the Pope blessing the balls before the match by kissing each one and Italy winning 5-0 but instead I'll agree with you...penalty kicks will decide this "contest"!

See ... see ... I knew we could agree on something!

But wouldn't the Pope have been rooting for the Germans?

1-nil, Italy gives the French the boot.

Question: That goal you're predicting ... will it come from game action ... or from a corner kick ... or from a penalty kick ... or from a self-goal ... or will they simply hand out a goal to Italy just to keep the frogs from winning?

Well its half-time and it's all tied up at one apiece. At this pace there's no telling how high the score could run up.
