Andy to Roger - Don't patronize me you arrogant ****, you had 5 already!!

I'd be pissed off too, you guys see the look on Roddick's face when Roger said that?



Roddick may be pissed, but him saying that, no i dont beleive it.

If he would have said that, then you would have seen some weird expressiond from the people around him. Which you did not

In Roger's defense, it's not easy to find the best words in a situation like that. I think it was meant well, and in a fews days that's all that'll matter to Andy.

Federer is a humble guy, I think - just trips over his tongue on occasion. That said, he has to stop kowtowing to his sponsor(s). Enough already with the gold piped dinner jackets - especially the one with "15" embroidered on the back. Egads.

Exactly what can you say to a guy you have just beaten in a 4th major final. You just have to be polite and respectful I suppose.

:lol: Add to that a Rolex, that he seems to put on as soon as every broadcast match is over. Have you tried putting on a watch on a sweaty wrist? :lol:

You must have missed my last post... No he didn't swear, but he was peeved and certainly did comment about Roger's previous 5 consecutive titles.

Cro and Rob are right that it wasn't meant as a dig or some sort of backhanded sympathetic gesture, but I understand Roddick's response.

That would be a cool photo to have, but without the tool behind Laver.

I mean a real photo, not a blurry screen-cap. I'm sure there'll be some high quality ones surfacing soon.
