[I am not a supporter of fed or nadal, though i enjoy the play of both. I've said this before and i'll say it again - none of us know who is doping and who is not, none of us know what any of them are doing, so everyone is just as likely as anyone else. stop talking like you know because unless you can show me proof, you don't know and it's all suppsotion, interpretation of facts to fit your theories, all in your head basically.

what is annoying is someone who]

you interpret anything from players you don't like as being a sign of foul play, but anything from a player you do like as being absolutely above board and not suspicoious in any way.

[fornt, you, me kieran and everyone else]

we all know that if that had been nadal posting pics of him leaping in the air so soon adter surgery, you'd have posted, proably mutliple times, making various insuaitions. but when a playe you happen to like does it, it's 'wow, isn't it great, can't wait to see him back in action'!

this obvious bias, and your refusal to admit it, makes it very diffcult to take antyong you say on teh subject seriosuly.

and all your guff about fed having high testoeraone levels. well you know what priodcues high testoenoe levels? diopng! and talking ahout how fed had two setas of tiwns, prving his high testeopnrone levels, which as busted poitned out,is cmpemter noncse. so how can you be taken seriosuly when talking abotu these issues?

or teh fact ath you hated novak for 5 seoncds because of teh egg 9even though he'd been using it for years), and now you've stoped posting about it becaue you said the authroites aren't doing antyhign baout it. well, thjey arent' doing antying about dopng either, but that doesn't stop you makign unsupoprted iasnsuations all teh time. if it wer nadal using eh egg, you woudlnt' have topeed talking about it, you'd be going on about it in every other post. but because it's novak, who's play you like, yoiu're stopped atlkng about it.

inconcsitency and bias of the highest order.

suspect everyone or no one, because we just don't know. if your goint o be suspcios, don't just reserve it for players you don't like, be suspicious of yur faves too. because if your'e not, it discredtis any accusation you make...:)


[it's also, as an unbiased observer, really annoying.

i woudln't like it because it wouldn't be good for the spoet, but if it came out that fed had been doping his enteri career, it would be satisfying just to squish on your arrogance...]

By the look of things he's bouncing around like a Duracell bunny. It's a remarkable recovery, by any standards... :popcorn

I was half way through typing this earlier and deleted and didn't bother posting it but it was very minor surgery and if he goes on to win the next 3 slams I'll be willing to concede he had a quiet word with Nadal's doctor :cool:

Well of course, if it was anyone but Federer showing such unprecedented recovery times, and endurance etc, you'd be accusing them of being Serbian or Spanish!

:eyepop

exactly. i don't normally like to get into these debates, but this is just too much. front, you interpret anything from players you don't like as being a sign of foul play, but anything from a player you do like as being absolutely above board and not suspicoious in any way. uit's relly annyoing.

we all know that if that had been nadal posting pics of him leaping in the air so soon adter surgery, you'd have posted, proably mutliple times, making various insuaitions. but when a playe you happen to like does it, it's 'wow, isn't it great, can't wait to see him back in action'!

this obvious bias, and your refusal to admit it, makes it very diffcult to take antyong you say on teh subject seriosuly.

and you saying that teh mighty fed can heal faster than orfdanry mortals cause he has extra specialyl high high testoeraone levels. yes, it's intersting what substances can cause high levels of testeronoe sin't it...
by thr way, i dont' think fed is doping (or, mroe accruate;yl i have no idea, just like you don't have any idea, same as for every player, allthough you like to act as if youre' some authoruty on the subject when you are clearly not at al). and talking ahout how fed had two setas of tiwns, prving his high testeopnrone levels, which as busted poitned out,is cmpemter noncse. so how can you be taken seriosuly when talking abotu these issues?

or teh fact ath you hated novak for 5 seoncds because of teh egg 9even though he'd been using it for years), and now you've stoped posting about it becaue you said the authroites aren't doing antyhign baout it. well, thjey arent' doing antying about dopng either, but that doesn't stop you makign unsupoprted iasnsuations all teh time. if it wer nadal using eh egg, you woudlnt' have topeed talking about it, you'd be going on about it in every other post. but because it's novak, who's play you like, yoiu're stopped atlkng about it.

Roger is not going to play until MC which will be his first tournament after his surgery and we'll see then if he will be ready....

I mentioned when he first had the procedure no matter how well it went it would take a full month of practice be he could compete at his high levels. IW is a hard court which isn't the best place to make a comeback on a very sore knee .

Don't think it's very sore going by the photos of him jumping like Japanese anime characters in training but mostly a case of seeing the big picture by allowing more time to heal up which is wise and he doesn't like the surface at Miami anyway as it's way too slow for his game so it's pointless playing there.

Roger hasn't played Miami in ages and he won't. He's already stated he's returning for Monte Carlo.

He doesn't like to play in Miami since this match......

:p


:lolz:Whuh? That was my "calm" reply... It was all said firmly tongue in cheek... :puzzled I just find it comical that so many men think Roger's able to control Mirka's ovulation abilities. Dude is good...but he's NOT that good...:laydownlaughing

During the dinner party with Federer, my husband suggested he play Djoke like Simon did who was able to take him to five sets. His response was revealing. Federer believes there is so little between them that he can win if he plays with commitment. On the occasions when he lost, he allowed doubt to creep into his game. He has resolved to attack Djoke relentlessly the next time they meet.

I am not sure that tactic will work, but I, as a fan, will support him and hope he continues to play well.
