If you cant say something...North Korea Soccer team...

Even if it requires heavy editing, North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il will ensure that his country's soccer team will at least appear to win the 2010 World Cup.
His ruling that bans state-run TV from broadcasting all live games also extends to his own country. The Sun newspaper reported that policy will also include North Korea's matches until the highlights are "heavily edited to ensure that they look like the better team."
If North Korea loses, author Mike Breen suspects Kim will suddenly stop taking credit for the country's qualifying for the first time since 1966. The variation of the age-old saying unsurprisingly relates to Kim: If the North Korean soccer team loses in the World Cup, but there's no video evidence, it didn't really happen.
"Once North Korea are knocked out," Breen said, "I would be amazed if there were any mention of the World Cup at all."
