Watching Sergio live right now trying to say he is sorry

[stevestevens]

It has been a rough last two weeks for the Spaniard.

[stevestevens]

So he said the "fried chicken" comment was supposed to be a funny comment but not a racist comment.

Sergio, it was supposed to be funny because it is a racial stereotype. USGA needs to pair these two together.

[stevestevens]

Sergio is lucky the us open is not at berthpage this year. He would be eaten alive.

Sergio says he didn't know about the Fuzzy Zoeller comment in 1997... Bullshit.

[Blarg]

He was 17 playing as an an amatuer in Spain. Quite possibly he didn't.

[mtangelsfan]

I'm guessing he did, but that doesn't matter really anyways.

 

He knew the fried chicken was a racist comment, he didn't pull that food choice out of the blue.

[Catwhoshatinthehat]

Agree with mt.  "My bad I didn't know this racist comment was already said" doesn't make it okay to say it. 

[Bruce Nye]

Sergio is the loser ....again.  Think about it - what has Sergio won that makes the media believe it is a rivalry?  It's not - Tiger owns him.

 

Is Sergio still playing the , "I'm the victim here."

 

Move on, Sergio.  You're a loser.

One of the golf writers on Twitter mentioned that Sergio moved to his own Agency.  I am sure his old agent would have told him to shut his mouth 10 days ago.

Silly euro mexicans

[Thomas]

Completely anecdotal but the Europeans I have worked with are the most racist people I have ever dealt with. And that is saying something. This comment would be a 1 on the scale of things I've heard. 

 

Seriously though, can we just retire this "joke". Fried chicken is the food of the gods and we should all unite in its awesomeness. 

[Mudville]

Pizza is the food of the gods. Fried chicken is the food of golf champions.

[Brandon]

Sucks being in the spotlight. Any of us say this and it's just silly racial humor and we all laugh, when he does it then it's front page news and he's a bigot.

The dude asked a dumb joking question and he gave a dumb joking answer. But you just can't say stuff like this in the public eye.....especially after the Fuzzy incident.

Just a poor taste joke that people will pile on. I'm kind of with Tiger on all this, just move on everyone.

[Tank]

if all the world were vegetarians, there'd be no racist comments like this one from sergio.

 

FACT

[Adam]

I think without this comment the USGA may have paired Tiger and Sergio. With what has happened I think it would be a major disservice to Tiger to do that. Sergio's idiocy may have gotten him off the hook. He'll shoot mid-80s if he gets paired with Tiger

He would have just said mashed potatoes.

Please, it's not like Sergio spends all his time in Spain.  Like I said, he didn't pull that food choice out of his ass.  He said fried chicken for a reason.  Big deal?  No.  Still a racist shot and just plain stupid.
