Wow, my brain couldn't even register that much stupidity at first. I had to read it several times before I got the full extent of his or her's horrible grammar... sigh.
Hehe, it was a British footballer and they seem to have their own bastard version of the English language. Another common one is "Our boys done good". Or they often start a sentence with "Like I said", regardless of whether they've said it or not. More often than not they're referring to something for the first time.
One time I heard a manager say: He didn't go round the man like what he did when he didn't do that. And I heard a pundit once say: The boy give it some eyebrows. Amazingly, I actually knew what he meant although he tried everything in his power to conceal it with mangled English.
Is it just Americans?

Americans aren't stupid. They do allow their media to portray them that way, though. And, to be honest, I'm still not sure why.

I'm an American, and yet, I admit that this is true.

If it makes you feel any better, I had to listen to an English person today say "We could have did this different".

They were on TV. I corrected them in spirit, though. For both mistakes. I'm amazed they managed to mess up twice with just a six word sentence.
