Don't Call Andy Roddick a Metrosexual

Andy RoddickAndy Roddick is not a fan of the man purse.

The tennis star has lashed out on his website against the growing English trend.  Roddick writes "I have seen some guys walking around with man purses here in London.... anything bigger than a money clip or a wallet is to be left to your girlfriend/wife...and just so we are clear you should not be able to throw your "wallet" over a shoulder...if you have a man purse, the wall is waiting."

While Roddick may have an issue with British style he hasn't let it affect his love of London, saying " I think I feel more at home here than in any other city we travel to."

Roddick, who is in England for Wimbledon, even gives his two cents on Kevin Federline and calls him the "Butthead of the Week,"adding "He really did nothing out of the ordinary, but let's be honest, this was inevitable."

Perhaps he saw K-Fed carrying a man purse.

31. i think it's pretty darn obvious what "the wall" refers to. and no, it isn't a firing squad. honestly, some people can be so out to lunch all the time. i'm not that big of an andy fan (though i used to be), but i definitely agree with sara. i bet the people making fun of andy's teeth don't have hollywood smiles either.

33. You all really need to stop criticising Andy, I would like to see any of you make the wimbeldon semi-finals and beat some of the best tennis players in the world, until you've done that i don't think any of you have the right to pass Judgement on him. He seems like an awesome guy who has so much time for everyone else, I was at wimbeldon today and watched Andy play against Andrew Murray, he put up a tremendous fight and never gave up. It shows real strength in character to be one of the best at a sport but still be down to earth, and to be honest who cares what he commented on about man bags, we all have opinions on issues, only beacause ours arent at the forefront of the media.

34. LOL at all the people saying "who cares about Andy Roddick." Obviously you cared enough to read the article and comment on it!

Nice blog by Roddick, by the way. Very entertaining and he has a nice sense of humor. He's still a very good tennis player and we're lucky to have him!

37. Andy was just making comment, just like you would be making a funny comment to a friend. What's the harm on that? You guys are making a big deal out of nothing.

Go Andy!
