Tennis anyone?

The Australian Open has begun, so I guess that means we can stop writing about football!

I was obsessed with tennis in the late eighties, but lost interest in the nineties. I never liked Agassi, and, although I was impressed with Sampras, I found his matches to be boring. Mens' tennis has some problems now including the rackets being too powerful and John McEnroe (the game's spokesperson) only talking about Agassi and the Davis Cup.

Despite's its problems, mens' tennis has one great thing going for it: Roger Federer. For tennis's sake I hope Federer wins the Grand Slam. I have never seen a player as impressive as Roger Federer. Do yourself a favor and watch him play when you have a chance.
