Kenny Perry Comment...

In an interview at the US Bank this week, Kenny Perry says

"I'm an American, no offense to the britains or them over there, but I like being here"

The "im an american" comment... Lost respect for him saying that, I have nothing against him for not playing the open, but saying that, just sooooo ignorant. Guess i shouldnt be surprised...

Good luck to this guy. He's 45 and finally getting some exposure. He's better off counting his money in the US while everyone else in the golfing world is freezing their butts off at The Open. Sure what's he missing?

Well, I guess some people take pride in their country.

Why is shaping shots important?


And you've already let us know how you feel about America...

and

Interesting ...

And then there's your ultimate "why Canada is so great" post:

Now tell me again why you've lost respect for Kenny Perry?

Give the guy a break. The media won't let it go, they ask the same question 1,000 times waiting for a slip of the tongue so internet jerks jump all over it.

If he doesn't want go, he doesn't want to go.

In the words of the great actress Marissa Tomei in "My Cousin Vinny", this statement is "dead on balls accurate, its a technical term."

Last time I checked Kenny Perry was a free man... Dude doesn't want to play over there... so what? Don't poke fun at the man's nationality.

I'm a Canadian, I live in the USA, I am working towards dual citizenship, and to this day, I need to explain to Canadians why I would ever want to become a US citizen. Prettty heavy brush you're doing that painting with there Piper.

Who are them over there? Europeans???

Like I said in my original Thread the guys a Tosser, not golfing reasons for shunning the Open but the fact he can't be arsed travelling away from the US. Wonder if he'll come over for the Ryder Cup at Celtic Manor in a couple of years if he makes the Team??? I hope not.

Last thing I heard was that he committed to playing the USBO early this year and is just doing what he promised. He probably had no idea he would qualify for the Open so I'm giving him a break.

sure... at least that's what my passport says.

BTW- I loved Zingers comment on Perry on the telecast today... for those of you watching on the BBC "over there" he said something like:

... Kenny is 48 years old, he can decide where and when he wants to play. And he's doing a pretty fecking good job at it....

Once again, it's a golf tournament... he's not dodging the draft or something. Relax.
