There's a Reason why Roger Feder is in so many commercials

[grafselesfan]

Roger has to win atleast 20 slams to be the greatest ever.

 

[Rippy]

Yeah that is pretty sick. Your point? It's no limousine or something snobby like that.

It's no more or less snobby than a Rolex watch. I have no problem with Nadal driving an Aston Martin, but it's certainly no different than Federer liking a Rolex watch.

 

[VivalaVida]

Buying an expensive car doesn't make you a snob but thinking your above other does which Federer has displayed many times.

Sampras was a giant ***** in many of his interviews. He had his moments were he referred to himself as superior to other tennis players. It is only fitting that federer can do the same.

 

[BreakPoint]

Damn that's a nice car...

It's the same Aston-Martin that James Bond drove in the past couple of movies. I heard that Rafa saw that movie and said - "I want that car!"

 

[VivalaVida]

That is so cool! He probably paid for it up front. Must be nice being filthy rich.

 

[BreakPoint]

I didn't say Nadal doesn't buy expensive stuff. He just doesn't want that snobby image that Fed has.

Yeah, sure, and buying and driving around in a $250,000 Aston-Martin certainly doesn't give one a "snobby image", right? :roll:

 

[BreakPoint]

That is so cool! He probably paid for it up front. Must be nice being filthy rich.

Maybe he bought a dozen of them in every color they make with cash? I mean they're only a mere $250,000 a piece. That's pocket change for Rafa.

 

[BreakPoint]

Buying an expensive car doesn't make you a snob but thinking your above other does which Federer has displayed many times.

Um...maybe that's because he IS above others! How many others have won 14 Grand Slams, have a career Slam, and have 20 consecutive Slam semis and 16 of the last 17 Slam finals?

Oh, yeah, NO ONE!!!!! So EVERYONE is below him, including YOU!

 

[Cesc Fabregas]

Look at the clothes he is wearing just a simple tracksuit unlike the some of the stuff Federer wheres.

Federer dresses up only for big formal events. If you look at him on normal days he is dressed in track jackets and Jeans made by Nike just like Rafa.

To be the best in the sport, you have to think you're above the rest...otherwise what do you end up with?
A guy like James Blake...

 

[Cesc Fabregas]

I am above him I have had relationships with more attractive girls than he has.

 

[VivalaVida]

That doesnt make you above him in any way. You are a complete loser compared to him, no offense.

Non taken but Federer is not above me.

Some people will go to any lengths to try to show Federer is snobby.

First of all, an Aston-Martin is FAR snobbier than a Rolex. For one thing, that car costs over $250,000 while a typical Rolex is around only $5,000. No comparison. How many people own Aston-Martins as compared to people who own a Rolex?

Second, Federer didn't buy his Rolex. He is sponsored by Rolex so they give him the watch for free so he can advertise it. He didn't pay a dime for it. In fact, he gets paid to wear it. Ever notice that he always puts on his watch right after a final and before the awards ceremony? That's because I'm sure it's in his contract to have to be wearing the watch when all the pictures of him are taken during the awards ceremony and when he's holding the trophy. BTW, Nadal does the same exact thing, so I'm sure he's sponsored by another watch company.

He's sponsored by TimeForce watches I believe, relatively new-age watches.

Only in your own distorted and pathetic little mind.

You don't even have a measly $1 million dollars to bet. Federer has over $100 million to his name. Sorry, but he is WAY above you in EVERY way imaginable. Fame, fortune, career, tennis skills, achievements, fans, etc., etc.

I don't think Federer is snobby, you seem to think I do. I was just saying Nadal_Freak can't criticise Federer for having a Rolex when Nadal has an Aston Martin, as those are both viewed as snobby items. That doesn't make Fed and Nadal snobby though.

How do you know Im not a doctor or surgeon who saves peoples lives? Thats way above anything Federer does.

 

[BreakPoint]

Thanks for pointing out that Nadal is a lousy dresser and not GQ material. How very sad.

Besides, this is not a pic from a photo shoot nor an ad.

 

[BreakPoint]

A surgeon would have way more than $1 million and wouldn't even have the time to make a single post on this board, let alone thousands.

Besides, surgeons are a dime a dozen, but there is ONLY ONE Roger Federer.

 

[BreakPoint]

Non taken but Federer is not above me.

Federer is so far above you that you couldn't even see him if you had a Hubble telescope.

 

[BreakPoint]

I am above him I have had relationships with more attractive girls than he has.

And what makes you think that Federer doesn't find Mirka much more attractive than ANY girl you've ever dated?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

 

[Cesc Fabregas]

Federer is not a messiah.

Nobody finds Mirka attractive apart from Federer do you find her attractive?

 

[BreakPoint]

Federer is not a messiah.

Compared to you, he's God. :shock:

 

[thejoe]

Nobody finds Mirka attractive apart from Federer do you find her attractive?

I think she looks good in some older pictures. Anyway, all that shows is that he isn't shallow. You talk about the "more attractive women you dated" as if they were trophies.

 

[BreakPoint]

Nobody finds Mirka attractive apart from Federer do you find her attractive?

In addition to being so far below Federer, thanks for also pointing out how shallow you are. :-?

 

[Cesc Fabregas]

How can you date a women who you a woman who you don't find attractive?

 

[Cesc Fabregas]

Nadal, Djoker and Murray have very attractive girlfriends you find them shallow?

 

[Rippy]

How can you date a women who you a woman who you don't find attractive?

Federer therefore finds Mirka attractive.

You seriously think Federer couldn't get a girlfriend that more people would find attractive than Mirka? Of course he could, but he's with the woman he loves and that's all he cares about.

 

[BreakPoint]

How can you date a women who you a woman who you don't find attractive?

By not being shallow.

Newsflash....there's a lot more to people than just the way they look. I know that's very hard for someone like you to understand. :neutral:

 

[Madhoshi22]

How can you date a women who you a woman who you don't find attractive?

Federer finds her attractive, so what?

 

[VivalaVida]

Non taken but Federer is not above me.

Cesc, I agree federer is not above you as a person. All people are equal. What i meant to say was in terms of accomplishments, fed is above you. Who knows, you could be a much nicer and better person than fed.

 

[Badger]

Okay, whatever abou the point you made OP. But some people disagree with you and you have to respect their opinions. I'm guessing thats why you opened the thread, to see other peoples opinions on the matter. You're being very agressive.

 

[FedFan_2009]

Federer likes more "cushin' for the pushin'" if ye get me drift... Aye.

 

[zagor]

Are all Federer fans racist idiots? Hopefully some his fanboys are no reflection on him. Or maybe so!

I wonder how many commercials Federer would have if his complexion was slightly more olive or tan. Guess we will never know.

I dare say Federer's relative dominance in the sport (even though a healthy Nadal is clearly #1) has brought out some hegemonic feelings among those of a certain persuasion. Old Europe's Great White Hope?

Though I must admit, the new Rolex commercial is hot. Quite impressive.

No,you're generalizing and speculating.I'm a big Fed fan and I'm certainly full of flaws but a racist I am not nor will I ever be,those are the type of people I hate.

 

[joeri888]

No racist here either.. I'd love Federer just as much if he was african, asian, from Spain, from Norway, from the balkan, from USA, from South-America. I really couldn't care less. Whether he would have made as many commercials I don't know.

 

[theduh]

Nadal, Djoker and Murray have very attractive girlfriends you find them shallow?

Doesn't mean if your girlfriend is hot you're shallow. Fed finds Mirka attractive but most of all very supportive and doesn't take Fed away from tennis.

 

[Laker]

Potito Starace.

Really?
I'm italian and I've never seen Potito Starace in a commercial, do you have any youtube link?
Thanks.
