* Talented shotmakers are over-rated

Absolutely true.


* Pushers and vultures are under-rated

Most of them are, yes.


* Peak Murray is better than peak Djokovic off clay.

No, just no.


* 2008-present is a weaker era than 2003-07.

I respectfully disagree.


* Every tennis player to have existed is a mug.

This is true (the players in my signature are the exception from the rule :p).

Federer has the most aesthetically pleasing game of anyone I've ever seen play (barring maybe Gasquet).

Haas would be better off in porn or stand up comedy.

Portuguese players are thin and handsome.
Despite earning less than $100000, Sousa has done more in 1 month than Rodduck did in 10
years.
Davis Cup recovery and pretty comebacks in solid tournaments.

USians are greedy liars and age terribly and are
fake assed simpletons.

I feel the complete opposite. Olympics is only played every four years, it's also by far the biggest event in the world - surely it must be more special to win the Olympics than to win a Grand Slam? It's not even close.

Olympics > Grand Slams > WTF > Masters 1000

I'm sure Davydenko would instantly trade his WTF title for an Olympic gold medal.
 
#508 ·
Maybe from 2008 or 2012.

Historically, the WTF is far more prestigious, but nowadays I believe most players would take the gold medal. I'd rather that wasn't true but there you go.

On the other hand, it may just be Olympic fever that exaggerates the importance of the medal in that particular moment.

Mark Lender's opinions towards Ferrer's vulturing are to some degree, true.

I find more contrasting the matches of fed and rafa, more of a clash of totally different styles hence more epic. Rafa and nole become too much of a pushing battle on the other hand nole and fed are neither... something in between.
I see and I understand, its your opinion but I prefer more Fed/Djokovic matches, and its not as predictable as Fed/Rafa matches where you just see Nadal FH topspin to Fed's BH most of the time and the outcome is not as predictable as Rafa/Fed matches(rafa wins most of their matches)

I still take wimby 07-08 finals and UAO 09 over any fed-nole match.

Also the ao 12 final between rafole was insane.

I fell asleep during many matches especially Melbourne, except Rafa Nole final I didnt sleep but I died my hair myself after the final out of shock, and I looked crazy... It wasn't a pleasant color..

I begin to hate players once they get a high ranking.
