[QUOTE="Typical_Juan, post: 8117155, member: 1008347"]It's subjective to sports you like to watch. Across the Atlantic you'd hear names like Michael Jordan and Babe Ruth, Wayne Gretski and Joe Montana. Go the other way round the globe and you'll hear names like Asashoryu and Jonah Lomu. The most widely watched, greatest sport is football and the greatest footballer ever is Paul Scholes. Close the thread.[/QUOTE] Yep.
Still a monster though, and as Terry says 'great entertainment'. He has a strange hobby though, he keeps pigeons.
Makes no odds pal, morals don't come into it I'm talking about entertainment value not nicest person award! It'd be far more entertaining if everybody was on drugs. Fake penis
Yep.[/QUOTE] Agree totally.. Vince, you are in Kos, **** the forum & enjoy your holiday, if I got 5 miles outside of York for a few weeks you wouldn't see me but that won't happen soon. Mike Tyson was a phenomenal fighter, two handed like me who if he had stayed under Jim Jacobs would have broken every record for a heavyweight. It was after Jacob's death and then Cus D'amato's that Tyson's career spiralled. I saw first hand the corruption in the sport, that is why I walked. Tennis players are like Kit-Kat wrappers, you know you have left one somewhere, you find it, you bin it. Seeing Federer parade around with a white jacket on a few years ago was like looking at the vomit when you throw it. Sampras was the same, boring as **** with a sickly face. Illie Nastasie was the only good thing about tennis, followed closely by Henri Laconte (spelling).. Anyway, that's my take on it all..
I'm no Sherlock Holmes, but I somehow get the feeling that you are not a great fan of tennis players VJ!
It's probably because of Joe's love for long grass, he loves to hide among foliage with his SLR in one hand and his nob in the other. ****ing tennis bastards always cut their grass short.
I love tennis mate and love to play it, It is just the personalities who are at the top and run the thing that pisses me off. BTW, Bjorn Borg is one of my ever favourite sport professionals.. Stop harping you, get your gnat gun out, there's a cat ****ting on your lawn as I write..
He might be good, at what he does, but he's typical of the modern sporting 'great' ....... boring, dull & totally uninterested in the people who 'support' him. He's just another Hamilton who have the charisma of a sliced loaf.
Hamilton is way more boring than bread, at least you can feed bread to ducks and it keeps kids happy, there's no redeeming feature with Lewis, he's incredibly boring and comes across about as British as pan of boiled frogs.
Have to say that in the days of Nastase, Borg, Connors and Mcenroe, they did seem to show their personalities a lot more than the stars of today. My theory is that the new social media that are around today put them more on guard.
Endorsements mate, nobody is allowed to fart or their sponsors will pull the plug. Money. As always. That's my guess.
