Federer to retire in a few years
http://www.tennis.com/news/2012/11/f.../#.ULfC4azAfbM
“I love my role as a father and in a few years, when I devote full time to [our twin daughters], really look for what every parent wants their children: to educate them,” Federer told La Nacion. |

"A few years" is a subjective statement. It can't be taken seriously in that sense, as he was talking about something entirely different during an interview. Federer didn't say "I will retire at the 2017 Australian Open"; instead he said "when I retire in a few years". I've noticed you try to twist words, guy, and it actually isn't that funny.

Sureshs, what will you miss most?
1. Federer himself as an active ATP member. No longer will he be a lamb to the bull's slaughter - at least in GS terms. or 2. Being able to criticize him, as much. Especially his back hand. ?

It is off-season. Gotta keep the board going.

That was mind-blowing! I had no recollection of those threads. But I suspect some were supposed to be parodies of other threads started around the same time.
