It's amazing how you take such an offensive when someone doesn't share your views. Watch this is going to happen next, you are gonna make some condencing reply, about 3,people will "liked"your reply and it will spawn about 6 responses from the Fdjoker( Fed Fans who like Djokovic because he has gotten the best of Rafa the past few years and that he isn't a threat to overtake their Beloved).,Truth be told, I am telling the God's honest truth but I truly don't give damn
You know, what, I'll bite. Let's analyze my post, sentence by sentence and see where I took "such an offensive":
this is to highlight that Novak has an easy draw as Goffin is the highest ranked player in his section while Rafa's form indicates he might not even make the QF, and even if he does, his chances of beating Novak are minimal.
So...what exactly did you take issue with? And please, let's not play the "tell us how you really feel" game because I don't want to have to point out how sensitive you are, or how you act like a giant baby every time someone isn't complimentary of Nadal, or how you've thrown these random out of the blue fits at least a dozen times since the old forums and have directed them at me, nehmeth and others before. Let's also not point out how much of a delusional fanboy you can be.
And that's how I really feel.
I disagree.. Yes, I am a Rafa fan but not as delusional of a so call "fanboy " as you say. I have probably been one of the most critical Rafa fans of his current level of play, I think its fair to say that. You have me confused as for as saying that when someone is complimentary of Nadal. What does my past battles with Nehmeth and you have to do with the price of tea in China, although those battles were warranted. The huge difference is although Nehmeth and I have spared , just like Nehmeth has spared with Moxie and others lately and on the old forums, Nehmeth is Man enough to admit he is wrong at times.(that's as far as I will go because I this isn'tabout him.). I have stated times when I was wrong. You on the other hand have Never admitted that you are ever Wrong. Eg. for you to bring up the past shows that you continued to have animosity towards me which is fine because I can take it. I am built that way. If you post something that is not accurate, I will challenge you and not one who is afraid of your pitbull mentality. Speaking of Nehmeth, I think he recently address that issue with you. My answers to your reply is in line below.
First sentence: "Novak has reached the US Open final 4 out of the last 5 times. That's a very good record of reaching the final, which I'm predicting will happen (hardly a balsy prediction, mind you)."
This sentence simply points out Novak's record at the US Open for the past 5 years, and articulates my prediction that he will reach the final -- a prediction I even admitted is not exactly the most courageous in the world.
AP All I said that you feel that Novak will Place( you are not saying that he will win but will be in the final. Djoker may make the finals but what will anyone ever remember, Did he bring home the championship title. He has won the title twice but lost 4 or 5 times. You think that is a good record for the person who is called the best hardcourt player in the world. Yes, his record at Cincinnati is beyond horrific but it happens. Eg. Rafa's record at the Austrialian Open is pretty much on par with Djoker's at the AO, Pedestrian.
Second sentence: "And the guys he's lost to at the US Open since 2007 have been Federer, Federer, Federer, Nadal, Murray, Nadal and Nishikori."
This one simply names the guys Novak has lost to.
Third sentence: " OK, that last one isn't like the 3 others before him, but he's only losing to the absolute elite for the most part. "
This one starts out by admitting that Nishikori is not exactly Federer, Nadal or Murray, and therefore, that loss wasn't Novak's finest hour, but that for the most part, he only lost to his 3 main rivals.
Final sentence: "Safe to say he won't be losing to Goffin or washed up Rafa who might not even make it there to begin with."
AP If you feel that Goffin is not going to give him a challenge at the US Open although we all observed that wasn't the case in Cincy. So you are calling Rafa washed up,Well , coming from you, that really defining you as a "fair weather fan". I would think that pretty much being called worst than your favorite term that you called me a "fanboy"
Clearly, this is to highlight that Novak has an easy draw as Goffin is the highest ranked player in his section while Rafa's form indicates he might not even make the QF, and even if he does, his chances of beating Novak are minimal.
AP Rafa chances are not good but its a helluva lot better than his efforts at RG or SW19 because his confidence is growing and he "knows" how to defeat Novak at US Open.
AP, As for how you feel, As I said before, you are not able to move forward if you have been challenge in the past unfairly as you may have deemed. That's the difference between you and the rest of Us(the other posters). There is no need to hold a grudge. Really, if you look what I post earlier, there was no need for all of this. It becomes as I dare to say, almost a Cali like reply from you. That not a compliment. That's truly how I feel. Btw.. You forgot to mentioned that I was the one who was delusional to believe that Rafa needed to "flatten out his serve and forehands"
