Roddick is a joke; he's going to be remembered for one of the best serves ever, and also being the biggest underachiever in Tennis history. I am thinking about driving down to Austin a few hours away and sitting on his doorstep and making faces at him; he's such a fag. Already a couple of Americans got sent home, lol, I hope Roddick is next. I get tired of watching him pick his shirt collar and adjust his hat all day.

Everyone says Fed is on the downslide, but just because he's having a bad year doesn't mean sh#t. Look what the guy had done from 2004 to 2007, nothing short of astonishing.Mononucleosis had him down alot of the 1st part of the year, and unless Nadal breaks his leg Rog won't win the French. He is still the second best clay courter in the world, but people want to say he's finished. I think Nadal is in his head badly; and will especially be if he beats Rog at Wimbledon{assuming Fed even gets to the finals}; but I think next year Roger will rebound and win several Slams. Next year will be the telling year for Roger IMO.
I completely disagree. A-Rod has the biggest serve right now and has done for the past 5 years, no one comes close to it. His forehand on a good day is also the best in the world, right now Fernando Gonzalez has the biggest forehand. His backhand is his biggest weakness. He hasn't played this year much Roddick due to injuries etc but he is still a force. Losing like 3 consecutive times to Federer in the Wimbledon final is no joke. Federer just has his number.

Federer is on the downslide, it's pretty obvious he's on the slide. His record suggests that this year. Nadal gave him a lesson last month on clay. Nobody has ever gave Fed a beating like that, it shows this year he past it. I think Nadal beats him again on grass, just you see

You even said yourself 2004-2007 he was great, but those years are in the past. He's now past his peak.
