Default Hannon Doesn't Like America

**** You.

Hannon, who has stayed home in England, was quoted on his website (richhardhannonracing.tv) Oct. 28 as saying: “America is not for me. I’ve tried it twice and didn’t like the place, so I will leave it to Richard Jr. (his assistant) and (jockey) Richard Hughes to bring home a fistful of dollars.”

Reading that it makes me want to
1. Fly him over here
2. Make him wear a redcoat
3. Put him in a field
4. Stab him repeatedly with a pitchfork

It's nice that he's sticking up for his stable workers but he comes off as a real douche.

He needs to post here. There are a few in the politics sub-forum that would have a smashing good time. Indeed!

Doesn't seem to realize he'd be speaking German without this country. But that's ok. Goldi will destroy him anyway

I think had Germany actually invaded England, the Bank of England might have withdrawn their financing of the German war machine.

Stop it--everybody in the world must like we like, otherwise they are evil. Remember that--it is easier than thought.

Good for him for not coming.... the dumber part when I read this yesterday was the jockey for Paco Boy possibly not coming for the Breeders Cup because he wants to compete for a riding title that he's five wins back of.

Still stupid, but I think he was only three back when that story came out.

What do you get for winning a riding title - a $12 trophy? - and honestly, that's excessive.

I did wonder if "Elvis" (oh how the US Immigration folks love their aliases) came from the Kashmir region under dispute by India and Pakistan. That would send up all kinds of red flags.

As obnoxious as I thought his remarks were, it's not hard to understand why Hannon might be upset with us purely from how his horses ended up doing here so we can only hope he's projecting. It sure sounds personal which I didn't appreciate. 2 DNFs, 1 of them a breakdown/euthanization, and another up the track finish from the one who did cross the line.

I'll probably be banned for posting this, but you are a f**k wad.
Yes, it's an English phrase, so you might have a hard time finding it

Not really. I'm disliked here for whatever reason. And I stand by my initial comment. Sad that you think his comment is the least bit acceptable.

Oh, that is accurate too. The debt to the world that America paid in WW2 has never been repaid.

LOL. 4 generations in the military in my family. No backseat here. Keep trying. When a trainer is sending a horse to this country and says "I don't care for it, I've been there." ----don't expect no response.
