Losing respect for Fed

[flipnflap]

I know you'll tell me this should be in Sport, but I ain't goin there cos no-one else does. Roger Federer is widely regarded as the greatest tennis player ever & the best sportsman (period) around today. I have long admired him, but feel he's beginning to let it all go to his head. For the last couple of years he's worn a special blazer at Wimbledon, adorned with badges for each of his victories there. At the 2007 French Open he grumbled about the times at which his matches were scheduled - as if there were no more important things in the World. And now he's lost to our Andy Murray for the second time, he moans about Murray's playing style. Roger, I reckon you're beginning to go off like the famous cheeses made by your Swiss compatriots. What do you reckon, fellow ABers?

Swiss cheeses aren't any different to other cheeses in going off.

When you get to Federers level of experience you just concentrate on the Grand Slams. Other tournaments throughout the year are just practice matches.
