Don't listen to him, he says that about everyone who loses matches. That's all that ever comes out of his mouth, "so & so needs to switch to a larger frame".

That´s the thing Psamp, it´s hard to tell sarcasm in text. Because it´s based on how you say it, unless you put a smiley. As for Drak´s post, it was funny the first 100 times he said it. Now it´s just routine and predictable.

I think people are holding these guys to impossible expectations.

The minute someone starts playing well for a couple tournaments in a row they are expected to keep that level of play forever otherwise their careers are already done and are hasbeens before they are ever wases.

I think we need to step back and ask ourselves whether or not we're being realistic in our expectations of these guys.

There has to be a winner and a loser in every match meaning the best players in the world are all going to lose some matches otherwise they'd all have 4 majors and 9 master series wins.

Djokovic is too extreme (Western) on his forehand side, he nearly has to throw his entire body into every forehand to hit a winner or do damage. He looks tired or fatigued time and time again because he plays a style of game that is physically demanding. He will always do damage and be a highly ranked player, but playing the style he plays with that kind of grip will take it's toll in a long season. It will be interesting to see what happens with him next year.

sorry morrissey, next time i'll make sure i somehow indicate i'm joking around...its just that we've both been on these boards for quite a while now so we know a lot of posters' styles.....at least ones who post knowledgeably and satirically :)

Knobman and Bluetrain4, I just want to tell you guys how impressed I am in the way you guys handled that. Both of you demonstrated excellent conflict resolution. If only more people did that....

I sometimes get bent out of shape myself when people get overly reactive. You guys handled that very maturely and are a credit to this board. It always has to start with a little humility and taking ownership of less than intelligent things we ALL say from time to time. Thanks!!

Hi,

I am going to say that the Joker has some issues with anxiety. The breathing problems, his lack of energy and weight loss could be signs of slight anxiety disorder. The stress level on the tour must be massive....

Regards,
Steve
