Ban the refs: North Korea

Three North Korean women footballers may have been banned for a match after this episode of mayhem, but Pyongyang knows where the true villains lie:

But North Korea’s official media said the referee and the lineswoman should be banned for life from international football for engaging in a “sinister” plot to ensure that North Korea lost.

“The Asian Football Confederation should severely punish the Italian referee and the Australian lineswoman for their base and shameless refereeing of the match and forbid them from refereeing international games any more,” the Korean Central News Agency said, quoting a Pyongyang sports newspaper.

Base and shameless, I tell you!

    I am more and more convinced that there will be very few post-reunification cultural integration problems.

    Indeed Dogbert, especially after the South Korean police are taught how to use their guns and instructed to use them often.

    apparently the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree betwixt South and North Korea regarding violent temper tantrum.
