Does anyone around here know anything about professional athletes or sports in general? Professional athletes don't "tank." Djokovic losing like he has in Madrid and Rome is not good for him. ...

I'm not surprised that you would think it's condescending. I, however, disagree with you. It's a very classy and gentlemanly gesture. At the club level, it's always nice to hear an opponent say...

What's a waste of time? Rooting for Nadal. Have you lost it? I have no idea who will win anything. I root for Nadal because he's my favorite player. Am I not allowed to do that?

No. It's not easy and it's being hyper-vigilant to the point when looking for it will screw up your game more than theirs. I'm talking about egregious foot-faulters who obviously have never been...
