Yep, that's my point - he already has an advantage over the other two, in that he is winning majors that they just couldn't. If his results in the other three majors track at a similar rate to Fed and Sampras ... his stats are going to be scary by the end of his career.

might be a slight hijack here, but i wonder if we will still all be on this forum in ten years time? Whats the life span of a regular forum? will anybody be able to understand bruce? Will there be a whole new batch of smilies invented for bob to use?

Will there still be bad beat stories? ;)

It amazes me at the depth you guys go into about each and every subject we all debate. Good, solid reasoning ably backed by fact-proving statistics. Only to be argued with by good, solid reasoning backed by more astounding statistics.

I love it!
Thats why i keep coming back every day to see what you guys will say next. BUT................how about sorting out world peace or something!

I long for the day that there is a serious debate about serious issues from you guys. It will happen. If you build it they will come. :D

I was reading in the Advertiser how "longevity" may be a problem (injuries) and the nitwit writer compared Hewitt to Nadal and said they were at similiar stages in their career, before injuries finally took their toll on Lley-ley. I choked on my drink and some shot out my nose when i read that! What a TOOL! :P
