January 7, 2009
Sergio Garcia did not win any of his four matches at last year's Ryder Cup, but that's not the reason he gives for Europe losing to the United States. Instead, he blames the small locker room, the playing of the national anthems and his cold relationship with Padraig Harrington.
"The U.S. team played their cards well," Garcia told the Mirror. "They knew where the pins were going to be and the tees and we didn't. The locker room we had was really, really small and uncomfortable. I wish it had been even half the size of theirs. We had two showers, one next to a toilet.
"At the opening ceremony they played my anthem twice, once when the Spanish flag was raised and once when the Swedish flag was raised."
As for Harrington, he said, "He is not my best friend. It'd probably not be good for us to be paired together."

..."aaaaahhh your putter's too small"
What - does this guy have a wide stance or something?
Sergio has become the Joe Biden of professional golf.
There is no hope for Europe. It is replete with girly-men. America is the last, best hope for humanity.
That’s a big boo friggin hoo for you Sergio.
And they'll likely end up with the same number of victories in major tourneys -- zero.
Sergio (metaphorically) spit into yet another cup. He's a bitter child -- a sore loser who wouldn't know personal responsibility if it hit him upside the head with a sand wedge.
It'll be interesting to see if Euro team captain Nick Faldo resopnds to any of Sergio's idiocy. ...especially his "I shouldn't have been paired with Harrington" excuse.
Good grief, Sergio. Need some Massengill for that?
I’ve got a lot of respect for many of the European golfers (I’m a Harrington fan, for one). But I could do without ever seeing Sergio again, and he can take Monty with him.

Serg might just hear a few more boo-birds than usual this year. What a pansy.

Puddin' Head and Chicken Choker could go away and I'd never miss them. I used to be a Sergio fan.
The only excuse he didn’t give was “I had sand in my vagina and it made me unconfortable.”
ROFL...
Well, most of the week, Sergio LOOKED LIKE he had sand somewhere uncomfortable.
This has to be one of the lamest excuses of all time.
t.s., Sergio.
And I guess Sergio doesn’t have a lot of nice things to day about Padraig Harrington.
Padraig is one of the most gentile, kindhearted players on tour and Serge suggests not to pair the two of them together in future Ryder Cup matches.
You know Sergio, stay in Europe, cause we’ve about had it with the smug attitude and the constant whining. While Padraig keeps winning majors even when Tiger comes back, you can keep being a pompas ass.
Regarding your tagline, I thought the Browns were going to be a serious threat in the AFC after they beat my Giants early in the year in a primetime game. And they didn't just beat them, they completely dominated them. The Giants had won their 13 previous road games (an NFL record), but against the Browns they looked like a college team. ...especially the defense. Cleveland had ZERO punts.
But then for some reason it all went downhill from there. ...for the Browns, that is.
It’s hard to believe that your G-Men lost in the manner that they did on that Monday night.
My disloyality to the current Browns cuts deep and is directly related to the period of time between Modell taking the team away till the new team began playing in 1999. The way that the fans of this city forgave the NFL and the way this city’s leaders caved into them I will never forgive.
To be told the only way to secure a franchise is to build a stadium with 2/3’s of its seats being PSL’s and having to have those 48.000 PSL’s sold before final approval was granted is a joke. Then to build an open air stadium instead of the domed stadium the fans wanted and voted for is a bigger joke.
Like I said, it goes very deep with me.
See ya on the playoff thread!
