Roddick Sues AMEX!
After a crushing 6-7, 6-7, 6-7 opening round loss in the U.S. Open, Andy Roddick was numb. In the press conference following the match, the dejected American Tennis Star just shook his head and answered every question with the same standard rote response, "I lost my Mojo, man...I really can't explain it, I just lost my Mojo."
Meanwhile the Roddick camp met with Johnny Cochran III who told them "Andy's mojo went away; AMEX has to pay!"
The suit claims the credit card company is liable for unleashing Andy's Mojo in an advertising campaign and failing to get it to return. The Cochran heir told the press, "We have indisputable visual evidence of American Express maliciously and intentionally luring Andy's mojo into a plastic induced spending spree. His mojo was taken from him in his sleep. AMEX showed it such a good time, there was no way it was going to return to Andy, just no way. In fact, it was seen in the stands enjoying concessions and hanging with Andy's friends during the match! The evidence is on tape and has hundreds of thousands of witnesses."
AMEX spokespeople claim the lawsuit is frivilous and they returned Andy's Mojo unharmed and, in fact, better dressed.
Meanwhile Roddick was left to celebrate his birthday without his Mojo which simply vanished into the NY city streets. Roddick later said, "I don't know where my Mojo is, I hope I can find him and convince him to return."
Fat chance Andy, the National Enquirer reports your Mojo is with Sharapova. Perhaps he will eventually tire of the squealing, but until then...he's gone!
