After Polyphemos (the cyclops) is blinded, the cyclops yell out to his father (Posiedon) and asks him to kill Odysseus and his crew. And if its not the gods will to kill him, then make his journey long and drawn out for a long time, and make it painful and bad too. He did that to get revenge. You should read the book.... or an abridged version anyways.

One mistake Odysseus makes with the cyclops Polyphemus is telling him his real name, which allows the cyclops to later pray to his father, Poseidon, for revenge. This leads to a series of challenges and hardships for Odysseus on his journey home from Troy.

Odysseus makes the mistake of taunting Polyphemus and revealing his real name because of his pride and arrogance. These actions result in the Cyclops calling on his father Poseidon for revenge, causing further obstacles for Odysseus on his journey back home.

Poseidon-who was the father of Polyphemus, the Cyclops. Polyphemus prayed to his father (Poseidon) to make Odysseus's life as miserable as possible.
I thought this was a stupid decision. Odysseus knew what the cyclops could do to him. He also knew that he had really ticked off the cyclops. By taunting him from his ship, he just made him more upset and almost killed his crew, as well as himself. Also by doing this, he got himself cursed by Posiden. I hope this helped!

yes
I think I remember Odysseus poked the Cyclops in the eye to make him blind for a moment and then he and his men crawled on the floor that had sheep in it and made sheep noises so the Cyclops wouldn't notice them with his bad vision. I don't really remember for sure. . .
