IN CASE WE HAD FORGOTTEN: ANDY RODDICK REMINDS US THAT HE’S A BRAT
Haters gonna hate…
On Tuesday Andy Roddick, the current darling of United States tennis, reminded everyone who might have begun to believe otherwise that he does indeed have the temperament of an infant.
After protesting a foot fault call by a line judge, which was proved to be correct by video replay, Roddick postured for about ten minutes, generally whining, blustering and pouting, before unleashing such stinging rebukes as:
“Why don’t you get some umpires who know what they are doing? Call 1-800-rent-a-ref.”
That’s mean, Andy. MEAN.
But please, enjoy some of these other priceless Roddick on-court gems:
To ball boy:
“Yellow drink. I want a yellow drink. GET ME A YELLOW DRINK, GOT THAT?”
To crowd:
“Shut up, have a bit of class”
To Umpire:
“Do you have ears? They’re connected to your head, use them”
“I’m going to speak very slowly to you, so you can understand me,”
“Kids, stay in school or you’ll end up being an umpire”
Great vibe there, Andy. It worked with Johnnie M, but that was only because he wore a cotton headband.
