I'm with you -
The problem has never been with Andy - the problem is reading about him, and hearing how he is the next great thing.
Forget Safin, Haas, Federero, Ferrero, Hewitt - who are they?
Many younger players, who imo are better, and many times are more accomplished are totally ignored by a xenophobic media that insists on telling that some kid with a big serve is the next Pete Sampras.
The entire reason I like Roddick to lose, is so that I can head the commentators choke on their tongues, read the articles making excuses for him, and see everybody who hyped him up based on nothing look like a total idiot.
Furthermore, I might add - that some commentators, like Patty mac for example, are very very ignorant about Roddicks opponents.
I will never forget him telling us that Kiefer should just "take his beating like a man" at some point in the summer of 2002, because "roddick just has too much game for him". Has Pat ever even seen Kiefer play? Jesus Christ.
Another fine example, was after Hewitt lost he immediately creamed his pants and yelled "this is great for roddick! oh jim! touch me ! touch me!". Because clearly since Hewitt is out, whoever managed to beat hewitt (something Roddick has never done) is just going to FOLD for the GREAT Roddick.
I might also add that the tenny bopper fan following he has is sickening. One needs to look no further than Naldo, who clearly knows just fuck all about the sport of tennis, for an example for what I'm talking about.
It's unfortunate as there are many Roddick fans who are just swell, but the alarming amount of fools that are attached to him is what is so irking.
