And furthermore, one could quite safely gamble on this relative silence continuing until July 9 or so, when the World Cup ends (although there is another – quite likely – alternative: that Resistentialist.com gets completely subsumed by football posts!).

For the historical record, and hopefully to demonstrate the supreme powers that higher level Resistentialists possess, here is a document of the Semi-Finalists and winner of the 2006 World Cup:

Semi-finals: Argentina, Netherlands, Brazil, France

Final: Netherlands vs Argentina

Winner: Netherlands

Top-scorer: Ruud van Nistelrooy

I’d like to say England will win, but Argentina beat them in the QuarterFinals (I think on penalties, but my crystal ball is a bit cloudy on this issue).

Even though he’ll probably still play a part in the World Cup, one doubts that he’ll be as influential as normal, or have this sort of effect on opposition teams:
