Roddick used to abuse umpires using rude words...but Nick is too much..every single match he has to be a nutsack.

Last year I posted on the board this guy was a huge turdfart, but everyone said, " no AP, he is just an immature kid. ":nono

Doesn't matter man. He beat Nadal at Wimbledon once so he's earned some fans for life.

But after he beat Roger he lost all those fans :snicker

What a woman, eh? "#moaners" now alongside "#haters" that his brother put up last year. I think they're none too bright in Nick's gaff...

RE: Rogers Cup (Men) - Montreal

But something that I don't understand so well is that Kyrgios has not won anything, sooner or later he lose in every single tournament, he is wearing fake tattoos, multi colour hair, he uses to talk too much by himself when he loses the points, his body language is pretty bad but he never has attacked so badly to any of his opponents so my question is why he did so badly against Wawrinka? maybe something has happened between both of them that we don't know? and why Stan left the court instead to continue fighting to win which would have been the best respond to that brat or even losing then facing him like a man after the match? sorry but Stand reaction was a little bit.....silly :cover :s

You Rafa fans are a sensitive bunch lately. I for one do not like Kyrgios regardless of him being one of the many to show Ralph an early door at Wimbledon. Guys like Kyrgios just want attention and unfortunately he is getting a lot of it after last night. The guy isn't even good yet and that's why you might not see as many comments on here as guys from the top 4.

Well ofc not everyone should like what he did but it was "kind a different" and that's it ;)
You'll always have opera/ballet to watch if you don't like that stuff ;)
No one ever brag about boxing announcements, soccer, basketball, nfl, etc... trash talking (among all other "things"), for example in hockey it is allowed to have a fist fight for Christ sake... and that's all sports too...
Anyway, Nick is young so he (probably) will change ofc but even if he doesn't i don't see that much of a "tragedy" to have that kind of guys in tennis ;)
They are just humans after all ;)

Dante, there was no trash talk there. There was "embarrassing for other people that are not present" talk. Just try to put yourself in the shoes of the "banged" girl for a second.

Where I come from, we have a saying : You cannot consummate your marriage with someone else's d&^k . That's what Nick did. He was not man enough to say "I banged your girlfriend". THAT would be trash talk.

Everyone seems "outraged" with this, not just Rafa fans. As far as me pointing out the double standard, it's pretty suspicious that the first two people to throw a certain player under the bus for the things that don't even come close to this have remained silent on this issue. Pretty odd.

They don't have to respond if they don't desire. You can only debate what is posted. It's goading to attack posters for not responding and it's not allowed.

So I just looked up this Vekic girl. She is 19. Chances are she and Kokinakis (what's in the name) had a fling at some point a while ago at a youth tournament or something.

Did Stan expect to be dating a virgin because she is half his age?

Anyways pretty low by Kyrgios for sharing that information with us for the reason Murat said.

Is it a double standard? Maybe a better question, is it unfair to have a double standard. I think Nick does not hide from this type of crap or present himself as someone who wouldn't do it. When people get upset over Novak's, Rafa's or Roger's occasional antics, it's because they present themselves as perfect, rule-abiding diplomats of the sport (and because they are our players rivals, people still bring up shirt-ripping, etc.), so since Rafa doesn't own his own bs, people get more annoyed by it. This was just a new low for a year of lows for Little Nicky, so while extra obnoxious, it's hardly surprising or out of line with his character generally.

This kind of misses the point. I doubt Stan cares, it's the public for lack of a better word slut-shaming, by Nick. He had no business bringing her into it.

I would guess Stan is more mad about that, than that this is an epiphany to him...

I wrote that I agree with that point (Murat said it). Just had to point that Wawrinka exchanged his wife for a teenager.

What Kyrgios did is unbelievable, outrageous and I don't have enough words to condemn it.
Tennis court is not the place to wash dirty linen in public. Even if he did it outside the court,
it would be in extremely bad taste.

So wait, resident White Knights GSM and Front have nothing to say about what Kyrgios did? Oh, I guess he's a "character" and "refreshing."

But wait till he starts making his opponents wait an extra 8-10 seconds in between points. Then they'll lambast him for being a "piece of $hit."

This is a low blow as well. People do not sit on these boards 24/7. Even 24 hours has not elapsed and you want to assume that I condone Kyrgios's behavior. :cover

This is what happens to people when they cannot win arguments and want to score by a low blow. :cover:snicker

See kskate2's post from earlier (quoted above), in which she made it clear goading users for not posting is not acceptable.

Who did he apologise to? Big Kokk?
