KP Lashes Out At 'Sleazebag' Stanford
Sreelata Yellamrazu | Feb 23 2009

Allen Stanford has not had it going his way in recent days. While being deemed alleged suspect in parting the common man’s income to the tune of nine billion dollars, his character assassination, justified or otherwise, is undergoing a radical change from West Indies’ crucial financial arm to a sleazebag.
Kevin Pietersen, the former England captain who led a rather disturbed England team to the Caribbean for the multi million dollar Stanford Super Series extravaganza of a Twenty20 match, admitted losing money in a contract that is now effectively cancelled with Stanford embroiled in fraud charges. “I was an ambassador for Stanford — a player face — but that contract has gone,” he stated.
Pietersen spoke about the lack of enthusiasm within the England team then during the series, “It was not that I was captain at the time, it was the uncomfortable situation of everybody thinking the England team had been sold. With the financial state of the world, people were talking about money instead of cricket. Those kinds of things just didn’t seem right to me, so it’s not a bad thing we are not going to have that tournament anymore.”
KP called Stanford a “sleazebag”, stating, “Stanford was a sleazebag. I was very uncomfortable with the whole Stanford thing.”
Looks like this was a marriage made for divorce, dare we say, like the Moores KP relationship.
