crying after losing, not a good thing at all, especially in public. Didn't like it when fed did it in AO after nadal loss or when Murray did at Wimbledon.

Not good for the sport

By the same principle, no one will be in my shoes or your shoes, etc...

Their dedication to that sport is no different then any other dedication of the same virtue in any other environment.

BTW - you still didn't answer my question Dragos, crying after a deserved loss? Cause shedding tears of joy is very sympathetic to me. As long as you don't do a fake faint as Fed did :lol: I much prefer him being arrogant at that moment, just like he was waiving his finger after beating Djokovic in RG last year.

But for someones dedication to something other than sports, he/she won't lose anything much. Or in other case Consider you for example If you are a student dedicating yourself to studies. What will happen if you are continuing to fail in the exams for 3/4 years even when you are working hard for it. Won't tears come in your eyes ? :roll:

No. Keep rolling your eyes. "Oh sure you will" HAHAHA!

I dedicated about 7 years to tennis, full time. Never cried once. OH AND I LOST! I dedicated 6 years to professional swimming, from age 6 till age 12-13 - never cried after losing. I was getting up 5 am at 6-7-8 years old, because swimming was before my school and after school, I wanted to do it, I still thank my mom for getting up to drive me there, every day. About 6 hours a day of swimming, for 6 years. I dedicated a lot of time to tennis as well, just for it all to go down in flames after my knee injury, something I have to live the rest of my life with.

Don't lecture me about dedication, I recon you know very little about it if you are willing to brush me off like that.

Lecture you, brush you off lol? My posts are misunderstood I m sure

I didn't even mention your name. I ve got my own opinion, different from yours. So what's wrong with me expressing that really. Anyways you might be an unemotional sort of personality who doesn't bother much about hardships. But most of the people do. It's a general behaviour thy anyone would cry after losing cuz they definitely face a lot of hardships. The fact that federer, berdych, djokovic, del potro, baghdatis, Sampras , football players have all cried losing says it all. Not a big deal in my opinion

It's really quite a personal thing, I don't think I would ever cry after winning, but I am sure I would cry if I was in Murray's shoes

Do I come across as unemotional? :lol:

You the first to say this, ever.

You and I had an exchange earlier here, where you called me out, then later via PM. So I took your eye roll following my post as an address to me. If this was not the slightest your intention - then I apologize.

"But most of the people do." - do you know most people personally or through a friend?

I am not taking your opinion away, you entitled to it.
