In older versions of python (like the one you are using), 'print' is a
statement instead of a function.

In other words, it is used like this:

    name = "Bob"
    print "Hello ", name

Because there are parentheses around the text to be printed, your version
of python is interpreting it as a tuple.  Remove the parentheses and you
should be ok.
