Posts like this remind people why ur the YE # 1 TTW poaster. Made both Ultron and Dark Lord into a thing by force of will. Well done. As for the saving tennis thing, can you imagine how stupid this place would be if Djoker won that match? My god, I'm a Djoker fan and I cringe to imagine the stupidity from every fan base that we'd have seen. Hard to even tell which of the 3 fan bases would have handled it worse.

Thanks sir
And you're right, I couldn't imagine this place if Drago won the calender slam who would have known that he'd really only lose ONE important match all year?

Laughably biased. I mean, wow.

Hah. Is it really so bad, or is it those consistent "anti-Djokovic" RG picks followed by a non slam-dunk in the backhand department?

You can console yourself with my listing (which is actually often vague and imprecise).

Yup

And thanks for the console

Yup

And thanks for the console

Yeah, I had to think about it for some seconds because at a glance I couldn't immediately see what was potentially biased about it. The tone (as I see it) became clearer though.

[Nachiket Nolefam]

I dont think I have seen that reaction after match point before.

That's not matchpoint. There were few calls that went vs Dimitrov, otherwise he would was leading 4th set by 4-1 or something. Whole match, he played well and couldn't get the job done. He said the match killed his confidence for rest of the year.

 

[Nathaniel_Near]

I dont think I have seen that reaction after match point before.

Still another game for Murray to win there, but virtual match point anyway.

It speaks for itself. I think you find yourself more humorous than you are

Of course I know well what vexed your rear end, and I wrote it just like that with the intention that some Chicoesque fanboi should jump on me, and invariably it hits home.

So let's go through what you found so horribly biased but couldn't quite find it in you to enunciate, shall we:

1. I wrote that the moment of the year was "Stan saving tennis". One expects it's not the match in question you are reacting to, but you think the phrasing must indicate some horrible anti-Djokovic sentiments. And wrong you are. I think Stan saved tennis because I generally want some unexpected results in tennis, and I think someone winning nigh every big tournament in a season would be horribly dull, whomever it was. Hence I also think Nadal saved tennis to quite some extent in 2005-2007, and many will certainly bear me out on that fact.

2. Then you probably also descended to the level that you thought me picking the RG final as match of the year was also some biased statement. Which if so would fall on its own unreasonableness.

3. Then it's the fact that I did pick Djokovic for best 2H-BH, but gave a shoutout to Murray. Clearly you find even giving a honorable mention to someone else in that category to be a grave insult, which is of course hilarious. Of course, as for the reasons someone like Murray can typically hang perfectly well with Novak from the baseline despite a vastly inferior forehand and ever so slightly lesser movement, I do not expect any rational deliberation.
And then there's the fact that I edited "best 1H-BH" to say "Best BH" for Gasquet specifically with the likes you in mind. Rationale for objection naturally being something like "Gasquet is only ranked roundabout 10 and doesn't win the big stuff, so his backhand cannot possibly be the best", which would showcase a neat lack of understanding of how tennis actually works.

4. And even not naming Djokovic for best FH irked you, did it not? Which is fun by itself.

5. And, actually, I wouldn't be surprised if you reacted to me naming Miami as forgettable in "worst masters category", which would be comical seeing as I also named IW the best, which Novak also won.

As for humor, I am quite aware and happy that I do not hit them within your ballpark.

Post filled with ridiculous and unfounded assumptions from beginning to end.

First of all, you admit you did it with the intention of some Chico like troll getting upset about it. So, I think that's trolling in of and itself..just looking for a reaction..

So it's rather humorous you should get upset at me pointing out your laughable bias an a one line post.

Even those who have made no bones about liking Djokovic, gave him quite a bit more props, such as MichaelNadal.

You are of course entitled to your opinion, and I think most things could be argued, and no I don't think Djokovic clearly has the best forehand (although I would have voted for him there), but when you are qualifying even the backhand and the rest of your post has the tone that it did (which NN noted), I felt justified in stating my opinion.

Again, you're entitled to yours, and I'm entitled to mine to call you out when I think you're being laughable and silly. Either you are blind or it's a weak troll attempt. You yourself said you were hoping someone like Chico would jump on it; I guess that's what entertains you. So, you are wasting your time arguing individual points after that. You seem to use big words and have some modicum of intelligence, so I just think it's beneath you to come out with something thinly veiled like that. If you wanna go full troll; then just go full troll. Most of the categories can as previously said be argued, but you are straw-manning each point and making it seem like I demand compliance to my viewpoint. If you notice, you are the only one I called out because in addition to your paucity of recognition for a guy who just had one of the 2 or 3 greatest tennis seasons ever, your tone was inexorably obvious. All I did was note this, and you seem to not be able to take this and want to turn it on me. It's a bad look...

I guess I shouldn't really expect more from a guy who thought it was okay for another user to post personal information about me on these boards and that I was "asking" for it because my picture could be reverse image searched. So fair and clear-minded when you want to be; so biased at other times. It's sad.

 

[Nathaniel_Near]

I laughed so hard at this exchange.

@125downthemiddle

About full troll stuff, are you not a big fan of half-trollisms? I'm just FULL of half-troll.

So it's rather humorous you should get upset at me pointing out your laughable bias an a one line post.

And this is where you have failed to understand my intent. You are inferring that since I intently phrased it to get a Chicoesque reaction, then my post must also in fact be biased.

But that's exactly where the joke is: I knew that by writing some things that are in themselves perfectly reasonable opinions, I would still get some indignant reaction. And that's the fun of it: exposing someone's irrationality.

Even those who have made no bones about liking Djokovic, gave him quite a bit more props, such as MichaelNadal.

And what exactly is it that I definitely ought to have given more props to in this post? By not giving a mere shoutout to Murray's BH, which is very obviously a fantastic one? Puh-lease

I think Djokovic is a fantastic player in many a way, and currently quite clearly the best in toto. Doesn't mean that I ought to think him without competition in single categories of the game. That would be ludicrous.

Again, you're entitled to yours, and I'm entitled to mine to call you out when I think you're being laughable and silly.

And I have never claimed you aren't entitled to post whatever you want, but it doesn't follow that I can't (1) ask for some actual expounding instead the tired insecurity, and (2) explain why your objection to my post wasn't very logical.

And predictably, this is what truly irks you: that I once pointed out the baffling stupidity of using a selfie from a homepage as a profile-pic if anonymity is of concern.

Do stay vexed, I certainly do not mind it.

Almost a year has gone by since then, and I haven't mentioned it. So no, that's not what truly vexes me; rather your poor logic here reminded me of your poor logic then. Let's assume it is bafflingly stupid, so that justifies someone posting all my info on here? I shudder to think what other things you think are "justified."

Djokovic deserves more than a shared best 2nd handed backhand, to me that's laughable and that's all I said. Deal with it.

Yes, that has to be it for me.

I didn't even consider the WTA when making my initial answers. There are things starting to happen on the WTA tour though which are making me start to pay attention again.

It goes in cycles. Sometimes the WTA will be more entertaining than the ATP. I'm looking forward, hopefully, to further improvements from Halep and Muguruza for 2016.

Oh, I'm dealing quite well with that, even somewhat amused. You, on the other hand, seem somewhat strained somewhere in the Southend of a man facing North.

As for profile-pic-gate, well, exactly. A year went by, and you felt the need to highlight your indignation now.
I don't remember saying posting "all your info" in here is justified, but I do remember pointing out the density in having a self-portrait from one's homepage as an avatar if one cares about privacy, and the fact that it in itself carries exactly the same function as a hyperlink.

I think the Serena Williams bandwagon will be interesting and how she bounces back from the USO, either way there will be drama.
Players such as Halep and Kvitova I find really frustrating but hope they do well.
Also, am hoping that Radwanska can build on WTA Tour Finals.
And Bouchard... I hope she finds a way back to form.
I'd like to see how Muguruza and Keys do. But especially want Kontah to do well and see Watson and Robson win something ... anything!
And salute the perennial Date-Krumm.

 

[Nachiket Nolefam]

Radwanska lost 2 matches before winning tour finals. She has bad bad bad record vs Serena, Sharapova, Azarenka, Kvitova, Wozniacki combined. There are just top few players. Many girls with overpowering game can beat her. Winning needs 7 matches in a row. Losing needs 1 match.

If healthy, it would be same old same old. Serena and Sharapova trying to win slams, with few in between.

Whatever. It's obvious I'm not going to change such a simple, biased mind.

Djokovic has more than the qualified best 2 handed backhand. And while the RG final was a huge match and could warrant a mention in the list, it doesn't warrant several mentions and references to it all over the place, more than anything Djokovic accomplished when the whole season was basically about him.

So I stand by my original comments. I have no problem in recognizing Federer's strengths and superiority over others. Funny some can't be fair and do the same for players they don't like.

If I'm to be completely honest here, his "opinions" (whether they are truly his or not) are not as far fetched as you suggest.

I for instance named the RG finals as both the match and moment of the year myself (as have many others), yet nobody has called me out for bias. It is a folly to speak of bias in a subjective matter such as a "Best of…" category to begin with, when there are no cardinal or ordinal numbers to associate with the question at hand. As long as any choice can be coherently and reasonably argued for, there is not much one can object to.

In this sense, @Sysyphus ' trolling is rather clever, as one inadvertently admits a bias of one's own when calling out his choices.

I mean no offense with this and merely wish to present it the way I logically perceive this matter by the way.
