I've posted with Chris before elsewhere, he's a straight shooter if there ever was one.
He says it like it is and he's dead on here.

I wouldn't mind if Fed was 26 but at 32 and a family he does how he wants.

If some of his fans had it their way they'd run him into the ground.

Is Gulbis playing?
Couldn't find him on any list, regular entry, qualifying or wildcard.

They should at least give him a chance to qualify.

Nadal has had trouble making finals compared to Fed, even at his favorite in his prime but he has paid the price and it's in the books.

It's all reflected in slam finals made and won.
