You speak as if tennis was always boring/civilized. Ever hear of a guy named John McEnroe?

Not sure if you're talking to me, but from what I've heard everybody back in the McEnroe era had that kind of "i'm gonna bite off your di**" attitude. I'm new to tennis so I was overwhelmed by the final of Monte-Carlo. So no, it's not boring at all. You're just getting old. (sad truth)

...from what I've heard everybody back in the McEnroe era had that kind of "i'm gonna bite off your di**" attitude.

If by di** you mean dick, what's wrong with that.

If by di** you mean dime, dish or diva, well, I have no idea what you're talking about.

I was overwhelmed by the final of Monte-Carlo. So no, it's not boring at all. You're just getting old. (sad truth)

You're overwhelmed by an increasingly dull game that is currently saturated with middle-of-the-road personalities, and I'm the one that's getting old??

Dude, there is a reason for tennis being called "the most civilized game" in the world. In tennis you can only show your anger by gestures.

Does your tv have sound?

Why the hell do you think every rich people who builds a mansion includes tennis court?
Simply because it requires only 2 people and unless you're sliding like djokovic you won't even get injured. FYI even obama played tennis. Bill Gates also said he plays tennis occasionally (or more often).

You're saying that tennis is only for rich people because it's civilized? Or it's civilized because obama plays... I'm confused. Either way you're wrong. I'm sure there are plenty of rapists who play a lot of tennis. They might even swear loudly while playing!

My point is tennis is not an american football or WWE for you. If action thriller is your preference, you're in the wrong
planet.

Maybe so, how do I get to planet Extreme mma tennis? Because that does sound awesome.
Look, I love tennis. I think it's bland, you think that's perfect. Fair enough.

Followed by a loss. Typical Tursy.

Uchiha, here is a good recap, read it:

Nadal-Raonic about to start.

Almagro going into fail mode again when facing Nadal.

[emate007]

He went into awe mode more than fail... Started out like he thought he could win.

He went into awe mode more than fail... Started out like he thought he could win.

Sky Sports commentators kept saying almagro didn't go the net when it was obvious he should've been there. He just hesitated too much. If you look at djokovic, one of the best ground stroke-baseline players, even he goes to the net a lot to finish off his points.

[djarvik]

Yes emate, you should take a look at Djokovic.
