What type of question is that on TTW?!?!?!?!?!?
Dat username. I don't like what I see.
Nope. Tennis is better without him. lol at the screen name.
There are Rafa fans and there are tennis fans. I choose to be a tennis fan. End of thread.
A Nadal fan can't be a Tennis fan? If that's what you're suggesting, why not?
I know, right?
Especially that from a Murray fan.
I supported MAndy at the final, since Rafa wasn't there to participate.
Sometimes I wonder if TT posters post in threads just to start fights.
:-?
It has been good without all Rafa's whinging though . He is terrible with all that. It has been nice and quiet and the tennis has been the topic of discussion as it should be.
You should probably have been 'Ms Tennis.'
Yeeeees.
Game is not the same without him.
NYC-er, USO fan, go every year, went this year ...
Just . Not . The . Same.
And that's not even his best surface.

definitely miss the Rafster. Its gonna be so sad when he retired.. There are just NO guys with that kind of star power and ability coming up in the ranks.
If I gotta watch another freakin pusher snoozfest in the finals between Djoker-Murray on gonna puke
Rafa is unique. I just don't understand how anyone who loves the tennis scene cannot miss him?
Seems a bit ironic you saying that. I just watched some clips of the 2010 USO final and it was endless extended baseline rallies until one or other player finally managed to end the point with a winner or was forced into a fault. Just like in 2012. Similarly, the final set went to 6-2 (although it was a 4th set rather than a 5th) and Nadal converted championship point after Djokovic missed a forehand, again just like in 2012.
Ditto for 2011. Each of the last 3 USO finals were not very dissimilar in style IMO.
Some of the Djoker-Nadal matches can get a bit boring, but most of the times they have me on the edge of my seat ( like the USO last year or AO this year, or even the french. Just about all their matches I was really into the match). Yet watching the Murray-Djoker USO final, it was like wake me up when its over.
I haven't been able to get into even ONE Murray-Djoker slam match yet
Oh come on! Their 2012 AO semi-final was one of the best matches ever played and was the perfect curtain raiser for the final. And you can't argue that their USO final didn't have dramatic twists and turns even if the level of play was a bit patchier because of the windy conditions.
Murray is completely afraid to force the issue or even come to the net 90-95 percent of the time.. Nadal and Djoker at least have some of that force the issue mentality.. I can't count the amount of times, Murray could have came into the net and end the point yet refused to do so. Whenever Nole plays Murray its as though Nole adapts Murray's strategy or "out pushing the pusher".
Maybe you can enjoy that but I sure as hell can't
At this level, you don't get pushers. You have junkballers who mess with the opponent's mind, you have defensive baseliners like Ferrer. The fact Murray prefers to let others make the mistake doesn't make him a pusher. He is simply clever.
Anyway, I do miss Nadal. His style never gets old and he has the most energy in the game. He would be my second favourite of the Top 4, after Djokovic. Even the haters should miss him, he's fun to hate.

Just a username, gosh! . What kind of welcome is this?
Would be nice if he came back and stayed long enough to lose 9 straight times to Rodge
Just a username, gosh! . What kind of welcome is this?
dont mind. We have a long history of nadal trolls who have had usernames like yours so many others mistaken you for a troll! But you seem decent so im sure itll be all good from here
And if anyone would dare to call themselves Mrs. Nadal or Mr. Nadal that would set off a huge chain of reactions no doubt...
