” You saw him. You all watched the same game,” Reddick said. “You all watched the game, you all saw it. There were lots of slides all over the course. It didn’t even matter. I changed my cleats, I still had seven cleats, and I was still slipping, so I don’t know. You know, I don’t want to use that as an excuse. I’m not that kind of guy. I’m not going to look for excuses. But congratulations to them, they still won, they are champions, they should take advantage of it. »
