I'm all for the giants in sports, but doesn't it get tedious to have the same person winning over and over and over again? For goodness sakes, someone please beat the guy. I liked Golf a whole lot more when Tiger stopped winning, and it pleases me no end that the Williams are not the bees knees anymore. (And I'm pleased as punch that my favourite player, Martina Hingis is back).
but yay for him, he won, congrats. Now can someone ELSE Win? Like Bagdahis. I like him.

Federer does not win everything. He has lost the French Open every year, he lost the Australian Open last year, he lost the year-end Masters last year. I think it would be great for the sport if he won MORE, not less. All the hatred is just because he is not an American.
Tiger Woods is ugly and arrogant and more boring then Roger, but people want him to win all the time, but it is boring when Roger wins half the time. Same with the Williams, they are incredably arrogant, not particularly interesting, rude, self serving, but because they are Americans people want them to win all the time. I hate this bias to Americans everyone seems to have.
what bias? I can't stand the williams - and i'm glad they are hardly around and I can't stand Tiger. I really don't like it if there is this whole DOMINATION in any sport regardless if they are american, canadian (even if its fun for a while because Canadians aren't dominant in anything haha), or european. I like wondering who the winner will be. Okay, Federer doesn' ALWAYS win, he hasn't "Slamed" anything, but 9 times out of 10 he's in the final and 9 x out of 10 he wins.
no one opened their mouth and said we hated him because he was anti-american. i've never heard any ppl "hating" on him beause he was from swiss. I actually LIKE Federer, I liked him way back when when Sampras was still in the tour. I just don't like the fact he WINS all the time. its boring.

Sorry I shouldnt insinuate "everybody" feels that way. It just annoys me to no end to hear Americans talk about how the respective sport is worthless if Tiger and the self serving Williams dont win everything out there, and then whine it is boring when Roger wins over half of the events, the same way they did with Steffi Graf, and whine they dont have enough of a rival until somebody else is winning 75% of the slam titles instead. It is obvious they are applying different rules to Americans and it annoys me to no end.
