It's too bad some people seem to be so jealous of Pete Sampras that they pop up at any post having to do with him just to make their jealous snipes and snarky comments.It must be awful trying to single handedly bring down one of the greatest players of all times when everyone else can see what a decent guy and great champ he was.Like a tennis Grinch some won't be happy until everyone feels as low as they do.How very sad.
People are often unreasonable, illogical and self-sentered;
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and frank, people may cheat you;
Be honest and frank anyway.
What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.
The good you do today, people may often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
Give the world your best and it may never be enough;
Give the world your best anyway.
You see in the final analysis, it is between You and God;
It was never between You and them anyway.

...But first he was stripped and then he was stabbed
By faceless men, well, f.....s
He still stands
And he still..................................................

And sometimes is seen a strange spot in the sky
A human being that was given to fly.
