Football

England will win of course.
That's so painfully obvious I'm left to wonder why you bothered to type it out. :-)

Is Beckham playing for England? Last I heard he'd gone to some team in Spain ... and that the Spice Girls were looking to make a comeback. How does the World Cup format work ... do countries compile "superstar" teams, or is there a process of elimination within countries whereby a given team -- Manchester United, or whatever -- wins a preliminary tournament and thereby the right to represent England in the Cup?

My guess is it's a compilation strategy, much like the Olympics.

My cousin's son is very good at soccer. He earned a scholarship to college based on his soccer prowess. He's somewhat of an arrogant young man.

Therefore -- logically it follows -- soccer makes one arrogant. :-)
