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.
What are you disagreeing about; I said Roddick had the best serve? He's still an underachiever and he'll never win another slam.

And just cause' Fed has one bad year everyone writes him off. Fed wasn't the only one who got embarassed by Nadal on clay; it's obvious Nadal is the best clay court player in history. Like I said, next year will be the year we see if Fed has lost it. I never said he wasn't on the downslide; but I'll reserve judgement about if he's finished next year. These guys like Nadal and roddick have a long ways to go to step into his shoes. And he may win both Wimbledon and the U.S. Open this year; then what are you going to say?

I'll say one thing though; if he can't figure out the puzzle that is Rafael Nadal, then he's in for a bad ending to his career. Not just at the French, but all the other tournaments. The guy is getting as good on grass and even hard court as he is on clay.
I'm diagreeing about saying Roddick is a joke, that's a pathetic statement. It's pretty obvious Roddick won't win another slam with Nadal and Djokovic on the tour. Hell, even Andy Murray would beat Roddick. And until Fed gets beat by Rafa I won't say no more.
Actually Roddick is pathetic, not my statement. But calm down little buddy, it's just my opinion. I know you love Roddick; that's why I'm talking trash, cause' it's so easy to get you upset I don't like him, actually I don't like any american players{though I'm American}, they all stink. The Williams sisters are the best American players and I can't stand either one. Andy was the big American mens' hope, and he has failed. You even say yourself Andy Murray can beat him, lol. Murray has to be abut the most sporadic player out there, so what does that tell you about Roddick? He's a joke Get over it.

He's lucky he even made it to the pros. If he didn't have that serve he wouldn't have even made it. He does have a wicked forehand, but he's so sporadic with it he always ends up needing that serve to stay alive. His backhand and whole approach to that shot is robotical and ridiculous. The guy looks like he's hurting himself trying to hit it. And his net game sucks. Overall I'd say he's a joke Have some rep Lefty before you get too excited
