DoubleDeuce · Aug 7, 2009

How does this affect his game, if at all? That would be interesting to find out in about a week.

Yeah... dont know why, but little bit worried about it. I hope it's going to be the same for him.

He's still traumatized by the fact that it's not a boy.
He's got over $50 million and he ended up with a doctor who told him it's a boy.

what are you talking about? What 50 million? He never said it's a boy.. where did you get your info from?

Great article.

I couldn't believe he takes the family with him.

These Federers will grow like itinerants

you can google federer pregnant or federer baby boy for more articles
I can no longer find the original announcement from his webpage. It's because the arrogant ******* deleted it to save face.

zimbio was never a reliable site.
You cant find it because there never was one.

No, I dont think he ever said anything about whether a boy or girl... but it doesnt matter now...

What it matters is that he has decided to take the whole family around with him. I am really surpirsed he is doing this though. Not easy to do.

will be interesting.. he'll do well, im sure

endbegin · Aug 7, 2009

great article! I knew he did a strenous workout routine prior to the FO, but didn't know he lost 10 pounds. As far as the kids go, having a private jet and a nurse around to help makes life much easier, eh?

That is unfortunately quite true.

Based on?

Is it ever intelligent to generalize about over 1 billion people? Or is it just a fabulous display of ignorance?

I always thought you were a good poster, I was wrong man.

That was seriously idiotic.

I think this will affect him in a very positive way, now he stands alone at 15, the birth of his girls went well, i would imagine all expecting parents to be sort of nervous before the birth? Everything is in place for him, i think he now can relax, let it all out, no pressure! As i have said before, i think he will end up with 19 GS.

what if the kids grow up and sit in the box when fed is playing in a GS final or something...how inspirational would that be

Absolutely, like Agassis oldest kid Jaden Gil, but then Fed needs to stay on top for a loong time...

I say chinese. From personal experience. And raw statistics:

And it is probably fairly true for many other asian races as well.

sentinel is indian, and vivalavida is pakistani, so they're kind of insulting themselves.

Doesn't matter where they're from. There is no need for them to extend whatever unfortunate way of thinking occurs in their families to such a large number of people.

I am indian, and I would prefer if they didn't attempt to speak for me when making such comments.
