Ah yes, another point directed at me personally. It seems to be a habit of the Fedal camp out here. I will ignore these posts from now on, but for you, as I generally like your posts a lot, I will respond.
I didn't post during that match, so yes you did not hear me. But I have said many times in the past that, although I really like Tsonga, I think his attitude is terrible. I don't think he tanked the match though. He is just horribly out of shape and mentally completely out of it. He was simply not ready at all for this match, which is something different from giving up when you are in the lead. But both attitudes are pretty bad.
Word of advice, don't take things personally. I'll also remind you that I don't think I've ever personally attacked you so I don't get where this "another post directed at me personally" is coming from.
Now, to explain my post, all I said was that you're being redundant. That's no attack. It's just a thing that whenever Nadal beats someone, you tend to post the same things, while ignoring that players "bend over" all the time...to other players too. All I'm asking is for us to be equal opportunity critics. If you're going to criticize a guy for his attitude (and keep in mind I was the one who originally brought up how terrible Ferrer's attitude is, so I'm not disagreeing with you), do it consistently, and not when it's most convenient (ie when it's not your player on the other side of the net).
That does make it personal then doesn't it?
No. Not really. I have a problem with the lack of consistency in criticism. I don't have a problem with you. If that's what you consider personal that's on you.
I can see that. Still you could have said 'other players fold like cheap tents too, like Tsonga', so it's still personal. I'll take your word of advice though, but I'll still be more selective in who to respond to.
