For all true Novak fans: We few, we happy few...

Freebird: Where is the king?

Maximagq: The king himself is rode to view their battle.

T-Noone: Of fighting men they have full three score thousand.

F1Bob: That's five to one; besides, they all are fresh.

Djokovic2011: 'Tis a fearful odds.

T-Noone: O that we now had here
But one ten thousand of those so-called Novak fans
That do no work to-day!

King Novak: What's he that wishes so?
My cousin T-Noone? No, my fair cousin:
If we are mark'd to die, we are enow
To do our fandom loss; and if to live,
The fewer men, the greater share of honour.
God's will! I pray thee, wish not one man more.
Rather proclaim it, T-Noone, through my host,
That he which hath no stomach to this fight,
Let him depart; his passport shall be made
And crowns for convoy put into his purse:
We would not die in that man's company
That fears his fellowship to die with us.
This day is called the feast of Roland Garros:
He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,
Will stand a tip-toe when the day is named,
And rouse him at the name of Roland Garros.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
And say 'To-morrow is Roland Garros:'
Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars.
And say 'These wounds I had on Roland Garros's day.'
Old men forget: yet all shall be forgot,
But he'll remember with advantages
What feats he did that day: then shall our names.
Familiar in their mouths as household words
Nole the king, Maximagq and F1Bob, 5555 and Chanwan,
T-Noone and TeamOB, Djokovic2011 and Freebird,
Be in their flowing cups freshly remember'd.
This story shall the good man teach his son;
And Roland Garros shall ne'er go by,
From this day to the ending of the world,
But we in it shall be remember'd;
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition:
And false Novak fans now a-bed
Shall think themselves accursed they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Roland Garros's day!

Cheers. Enter TeamOB

TeamOB: My sovereign lord, bestow yourself with speed:
The Nadal fans are bravely in their battles set,
And will with all expedience march upon us!

King Novak: All things are ready, if our minds be so.

T-Noone: Perish the man whose mind is not with thou!

King Novak: Thou dost not wish more help from the Brotherhood, coz?

T-Noone: God's will! my liege, would you and I alone,
Without more help, could fight this royal battle!

King Novak: You know your places: God be with you all!

Cheers. Enter messenger from the Nadal camp

6-1 6-3 6-0: Once more I come to know of thee, King Nole,
If for thy ransom thou wilt now compound,
Before thy most assured overthrow.

King Novak: Who hath sent thee now?

6-1 6-3 6-0: The Tio of Nadal.

King Novak: I pray thee, bear my former answer back:
Bid them achieve me and then sell my bones.
Good God! why should they mock poor fellows thus?
Let me speak proudly: tell the Tio
We are but warriors for the working-day;
Our gayness and our gilt are all besmirch'd
With rainy marching in the painful field;
But, by the mass, our hearts are in the trim!
Herald, save thou thy labour;
Come thou no more for ransom, gentle herald:
They shall have none, I swear, but these my joints!
Which if they have as I will leave 'em them,
Shall yield them little, tell the Tio.

6-1 6-3 6-0: I shall, King Nole. And so fare thee well:
Thou never shalt hear herald any more.

Exit

xFedal: My lord, most humbly on my knee I beg
The leading of the vaward.

King Novak: Take it, brave xFedal. Now, soldiers, march away:
And how thou pleasest, God, dispose the day!

(Sorry for any true Novak fans I forgot! These were only the first few that came to mind.)

I was going to say nice job, but I just saw this and lost all respect for OP:



I would appreciate if you remove me from this poem.

Thank you.

I of course meant that facetiously in the spirit of what was a very rambunctious joke...but if it offends your sensitivity so much, I'll be glad to oblige your request right away. I'll replace you with T-Noone and TeamOB, men King Novak would be glad to bring alongside him in battle. As King Novak himself would say:

That he which hath no stomach to this fight,
Let him depart; his passport shall be made
And crowns for convoy put into his purse:
We would not die in that man's company
That fears his fellowship to die with us.

Anyways, don't let the door hit you on the way out. Thanks.

Sorry but it is extremely hypocritical to do this on one hand and laugh at me behind my back on some sleazy, offensive insult on the other. You can't try to form a fellowship of Novak fans if you behave like that towards some of us. You obviously lack integrity to pull this.

You're still here? No need for apologies. If you can't handle a simple joke like that then you clearly weren't cut out for King Novak's merry band in the first place. Nole needs men of strong character and mental fortitude for Sunday. Anyways, hopefully this quote will lend you some sage advice:

“Blessed is he who has learned to laugh at himself, for he shall never cease to be entertained.”

That was not a simple joke, that was a classless pathetic insult and as I said, it is extremely hypocritical of you to do that and try to assemble Novak fans like this at the same time.

You could at least apologize for your behavior if you are serious.

First off, it wasn't my joke. Second, have you ever wondered why you are the butt of so many jokes on this forum, even among Djokovic fans? It's because of whiny posts like the one above. Seriously, grow up and people will respect you more. Learning to laugh at yourself is a part of that, both here and in life.

Even despite your often querulous posts, you were once one of my favorite posters on TW because of your staunch support of Novak no matter what the adverse circumstances. I'm very sorry you were not able to stay in this merry band because you cannot get over a small joke.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is ****ing priceless.

Do you think I'm a cool, chill guy to hang out with Tenez?

Sure, you seem like a cool, fun guy from your posts on this forum. I'd be glad to take you out for a beer once we've secured Novak victory tomorrow. The King would be happy, I'm sure, to have you in his elite guard.
 
"Tennis balls, my liege."

King Novak: Bring in the messengers sent from the Nadal.
Now are we well resolved, and by God’s help
And yours, the noble sinews of our power,
France being ours, we’ll bend it to our awe
Or break it all to pieces.

Enter 6-1 6-3 6-0, NADALRECORD

Now are we well prepared to know the pleasure
Of our fair cousin Nadal.

6-1 6-3 6-0: Your Highness, lately sending into France,
Did claim some certain titles in the right
Of your great predecessor, King Roger;
In answer of which claim, the prince our master
Says that you savor too much of your youth
He therefore sends you, meeter for your spirit,
This tun of treasure, and, in lieu of this,
Desires you let the titles that you claim
Hear no more of you. This the Nadal speaks.

NADALRECORD steps forward presenting the Nadal's offering

King Novak: What treasure, powerangle?

powerangle: Tennis balls, my liege.

King Novak: We are glad the Nadal is so pleasant with us.
His present and your pains we thank you for.
When we have matched our rackets to these balls,
We will in France, by God’s grace, play a set
Shall strike his crown into the hazard.
And we understand him well,
How he comes o'er us with our wilder days,
Not measuring what use we made of them.
But tell the Nadal I will keep my state,
Be like a king, and show my sail of greatness
When I do rouse me in my throne of France.
And tell the pleasant prince this mock of his
Hath turned his balls to gun-stones, and his soul
Shall stand sore chargèd for the wasteful vengeance
That shall fly with them; for many a thousand widows
Shall this his mock mock out of their dear husbands,
Mock mothers from their sons, mock castles down,
And some are yet ungotten and unborn
That shall have cause to curse the Nadal's scorn.
So get you hence in peace. And tell the Nadal
His jest will savor but of shallow wit
When thousands weep more than did laugh at it.
—Convey them with safe conduct.—Fare you well.

Exeunt 6-1 6-3 6-0 and NADALRECORD

powerangle: This was a merry message.

King Novak: We hope to make the sender blush at it.
Therefore, my lords, omit no happy hour
That may give furth'rance to our expedition;
For we have now no thought in us but France.
Therefore let every man now task his thought,
That this fair action may on foot be brought!

We will not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light!

COME ON NOLE!!! :mad:
