I never said he did not need to miss time last year

I said the rest helped him be fresh to win in January.

Talk about living in the past. Get up to date on your latest PEDs co-worker.

I've always been a bigger Nadal fan but my hats off to Roger. I also think

Helps when you hand pick surfaces that suit your game

I think it's phenomenal for tennis. When you are in your 30s

What happens is you kill off the next gen

bluelands

I don't think they are killing them off. The big 4 are just flat out better

how do you destroy Federer when he has been resting

bluelands

7/14/17 12:10pm

you play better than him because he's old.

Well yeah he's the greatest player of all time.

As BGR pointed out below, Roger played a full schedule for 15+ years. He was out the last half of last year...

just love this dude complaining about a 35 year old tennis player keeping the

imagine applying that same standard to other sports - sucks that

I don't think this position you're taking makes any sense.

resting and cherry picking tournaments is not a competitive advantage?

On the women's side, it's also pretty unfair that Serena got pregnant and is

Why did Roger skip the last 6 months of 2016? Because his knee was in bad shape, he wasn't skipping to try...

7/14/17 12:35pm

He didn't need to miss the entire second half of the year following a knee scope

bluelands

7/14/17 12:54pm

He says he did, he said rest and rehab is what the knee needed. I'll take his word for it. And as far as...

7/14/17 1:15pm

Yeah, I guess I miss the joke

bluelands

7/14/17 1:55pm

Because the body isn't the same at 35 that it is at 20. How old are you?

AndyDwyer

7/14/17 2:01pm

So you are finally getting my point

bluelands

7/14/17 2:41pm

No, I think you are dead wrong on it being bad for the sport and bad for young

AndyDwyer

7/14/17 3:18pm

Interesting point by McEnroe

bluelands

7/14/17 3:38pm

You said he didn't need to miss the entire second half of the year, he says he did. You are making the claim...

I said he didn't need to miss the ENTIRE six months

bluelands

He also said he needed the rehab, walking without pain a couple of days later does not mean...

7/14/17 4:02pm

The younger players will have their chances, and the ATP changed the rules about how many tournaments they...

7/14/17 12:12pm

LOL. The big 4 killed off Roddick? What the heck? How did they kill him off?

AndyDwyer

7/14/17 12:16pm

They didn't, even Andy wouldn't say that. He still had a hall of fame career. Won a major, made it to #1, won a lot...

7/14/17 12:37pm

3-21 head to head vs Federer

bluelands

7/14/17 12:47pm

And he still had a hall of fame career despite that, his career was not killed. They were part of the same generation..

What are you even talking about?
