Pity The Commentator

South Korea kicked off their World Cup Finals campaign today against the newboys of Toga. For the only time this World Cup boradcast, my sympathy is with the commentators. South Korea's squad includes 5 x Lee's, 8 x Kim's, and a couple each of Cho's and Park's (go Ji-Sung!). That's gonna be tough for the gits they have commentating for ABC/ESPN!

down under, on SBS, the commentators they had (or the feed they had) for the OZ v Japan game, must have practised before hand. they knew the players from their numbers off by heart and made a pretty good run at following the japanese around , most of them had 3 or 4 syllable surnames so it was a bit of a mouthful but they did a fine job, of course they could have been making it all up as we did not know any them anyway.

if there were that many kims. it makes calling the game very easy
