If the Swiss beat Korea, the Koreans might declare war on them. Expect foreigners to be beaten in the streets, martial law declared, and all foreigners deported.


And Lil Kim will stand up on his step ladder and declare, "If we'd be united, we would have won!"

Being a huge admirer of lazy sports puns (Where there's a will there's a Wade has been my favorite over the past week), last night I was wondering how often the word neutral has been used as a pun when the Swiss play to a draw.

Why can't these sports writers get more creative/esoteric? Let's say Switzerland beats Korea. Wouldn't it be a breath of fresh air to read the following?

Swiss Army Knife Cuts the Kimchi, Fans Acknowledge Good Sporksmanship on Both Sides

Right?

Did anyone use the line:

Korea to stuff Turkey

This is not really associated with the topic but a headline about a Swiss football's team problems with a new building was voted best tabloid headline in the past.

If the Swiss defeat the Koreans, and the K-team doesn't advance, chances are we won't see another World Cup game here. The interest will be officially over.

Do you think they just secure broadcast rights on the fly?
