Has this guy not heard of a phone? Surely these guys have secret personal facebook accounts to drop an inbox too.

Edit: lololololol, looks like everyone else has picked that up too.
The intelligent ones like you and me, at least.

He seems pretty unsure about things at the moment.

Fred, as usual, is a very classy, humble & down-to-earth person that does not wish to send Ralph something as impersonal as an IM.
Fed will send Severin Luthi as a messenger to Nadal's camp. After the diplomatic formalities are over, Luthi will unfold a silk scroll and read out Fed's message from it. Uncle Toni will throw him a gold coin as a tip. Luthi will bow and then walk backward for several steps so as not to show his butt side to Nadal, and then quickly turn around and leave.

I remember a few years ago when he was seriously injured, James blake told the press that the only player who called him while he was still at the hospital was Roger Federer.

Hahahaa,That's huge,I don't think I can eat it all at once.I don't remember ever eating a burger with bacon being stuffed in it.

I am more fond of little chicken burgers that you get at Mcdonalds..I like those crispy and mildly salted French Fries.

If Rafa were as resilient as you making new accounts quickly after being banned, Nadal wouldn't be out as long

You always have to read between the lines in these interviews from Fred.

See? Looks like he's being friendly and concerned about Rafa, but pointing the obvious that Rafa's injury excuses are over-exaggerated and fake.

Of course Fed wants him to be in the USO, once he draws him in his half he'll get his dream joke draw to the final.

Rafael Nadal tells the Spanish TV station Laverdad that he is questionable for the U.S. Open, which begins on August 27. Nadal has not played a tournament since Wimbledon due to tendonitis in his knees. "I don't know if I’ll be ready in time for the U.S. Open," he said. "I can't say yes or no. [The injury] is not the same as other years, and I have found it a little different."

Federer concerned for injured Nadal
Ticker - Monday, August 13, 2012



Roger Federer says he’s concerned about the health of his longtime rival, Rafael Nadal, who hasn't played since Wimbledon due to a knee injury.

"I was going to write him and check on him because I can't believe he's been out that long," Federer told reporters in Cincinnati. "I thought the Olympics, okay, that's fine. That's a personal choice. I thought for sure we would see him in Toronto, but now he missed Toronto and Cincinnati. It's very surprising, because it was nothing that we heard of prior to the injury. He played so well on clay, and then actually seemed fine at Wimbledon. He had more time by losing earlier at Wimbledon. So it came as big surprise now, these two pull outs for me. Even the Olympics, too. So I'm sad for him. I hope he'll be back for the [U.S.] Open."

http://www.tennis.com/articles/templ...9171&zoneid=25

Nadal injury could be way worse than 09.....looks like he aint in the Open this time. Federer looking worried....great to see that from a great ambassador. Truly think he misses Nadal like SW19 09!

I agree, this Federer person is soooo arrogant.

He is bragging about his ability to write ( Nadal can only Etch a Sketch the number 11)

Also, he is taunting Nadal's inability to bounce back from crushing defeats which even Federer went through from Nadal. Yet Roger comes back and fights again where as Rafa hides for weeks and weeks, galivanting in the company of other people's little children.

Come back Rafa, show us the steely determination you are supposed to be exhibiting

Nadal bounced back from 7 losses in a row to Djokovic, so it's ridiculous to question Nadal's ability to respond to defeats.

Based on Mathilde's latest post today, Nadal doesn't seem ready with his knee and didn't practice much today. So if Rafa pulled out what is the last day for him to submit his withdrawal without a LL taking his place.

If Nadal is out, nothing can stop Donald Young.
