This is not about Nadal - this is about terrible Nadal fans.

By then, Nadal will have eclipsed Federer's slam record and will have added at least another 10 Masters 1000 titles to his collection, including potentially 10 Roland Garros titles. Add on to that a 10+ defense of Monte Carlo titles and a multitude of Barcelona and Rome titles. And Nadal is showing no sign of decline at all with his current form. Amazing.

Single greatest poast in world history.

A meteoric career, ie crash and burn. Fun while it lasted.

There must be a Hall of Fame thread where poasts like this one and 'Cincy- the real slam' should be added and preserved for posterity. It will serve as a guide for future generations of TTW trolls.

Rejoice now when 130 is banned before he comes back in another username!

Here's a suggestion for wiser, longer-tenured poasters than myself, who have greater knowledge of TTW lore. How about a poll to ask the TTW community to nominate, from among 5 or so options, the GFTOAT (greatest fail thread of all time)?

The above poast and cincy would certainly be candidates, as noted by Sbengte. As would, I imagine, the poast about Rafa having an unbeaten streak of 42 to start 2013.

I would do it myself except I've only been lurking around the boards since mid-2011. If someone does get around to it, a shout-out for the idea would be nice. (Only if you feel like it though!)

Cheers!

I would nominate among candidates Cesc's thread about Söderling not being able to defend his final run a RG in 2010...

and then there's also the legendary "its a digrace, its an scandal, its a outrage"...
http://tt.tennis-warehouse.com/showthread.php?t=329569
... which provided one of the most popular meme of TTW.

Ha ! That is uncanny. I just mentioned this on the Cincy thread myself before reading this.
The poll on FAIL threads would be fun but I don't think the mods will let it survive

To poke fun at them because they failed epically and have a good laugh while you're at it. What's wrong with that?

Quotable quote.

No matter what happens, this guy will say the same thing before every tournament. I am amazed that he didn't point out to Fed vs Rafa H2H (on clay mostly)

One of the greatest threads of all time?

Something tells me that the OP loves watching Nadal getting burned.

forzamilan90 · 02-24-2013, 09:54 AM

I think the identity of the person that started the thread and his usual trolly resoluteness and then the outcome of the match is why this thread is still popular. Self explanatory, I know, but still.
