Jeff Cunningham
Real Salt Lake
The leading scorer in Major League Soccer blamed the media this week - The Salt Lake Tribune - for making up a story about him storming off the practice field on Monday.
He told a smaller Salt Lake paper: "If you've ever been to Europe or read a newspaper from Europe, if those guys have a cup of tea in a cafe after or close to game-time, that's being reported. So I mean, that's their job to report stories and create stories, as well."
No, Jeff, it's not the job of a newspaper writer to create stories. It's our job to report stories.
Don't throw tantrums, Jeff, and we won't have to report on them.
Oh, and he also said this:
"I have no problems with anything that's been said of me. It's been said all my career. I think people fancy me. They can't figure me out. I'm an attractive guy. I make good money and I score goals. I'm the kind of guy I believe people love. And, at the same time, they can't figure out why they love me so much, so they decide to hate me."
Uh, OK.</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></SPAN></SPAN>
