And I've given very particular examples as to why I disagree with the notion that some countries have produced 'class' athletes and therefore the they are the classiest countries. [/b

Australia - said it time and again that both Hewitt and Tomic are't and weren't the epitome of class. Even Pat Cash is not known all that innocent.

Spain - I've already mentioned Ferrer and Nadal IMO is the most controversial player in tennis history. Even some of the most neutral fans have questioned some of his injuries and subsequent multiple time off. There are other Spanish players who have come across cocky from time to time. We can't possibly overlook the facts that Nadal gets oncourt coaching from Uncle Toni and the fact that he's the prime suspect of time violation - both illegal and not in accordance with tennis book of rules and guidance.

UK (especially England in particular) - you guys are probably completely oblivious to the fact that Andy actually has a very love/hate relationship with the British tennis fans. A lot of them have hated him since the day he has turned pro. His simple innocent tweet has even generated comments like how he should have been killed in the Dunblane school massacre.  The tennis fans at WTF London are one of the most rowdy fans I've ever seen. It's worth mentioning that most of Murray fans hate Sampras with a passion. His crimes are, frist, he is a 'servebot' and second, he's got no personality. 

The fact that, Andy is a class act and he is, doesn't necessarily indicate the same mindset of all the other people that reside in the UK. If you read any of the match threads at Murray's World especially when he plays bad you will get a clear perspective of that culture. Quite a few posters have left because of the ongoing nasty and negative comments. And the hate on other players is very much evident in the same forum that represents 95% of British people.

I choose to state my opinions on different matters. I don't care if you agree or disagree. My opinions do not have to be dissected by anyone. If you don't agree, that's fine. I don't agree with many of the things you say, or how you say them, but I'm not going to take your opinion, put my spin on it and then tell you that you're wrong. That doesn't make sense to me. Live and let live. I don't care about the cultures as a whole. I'm talking about the players that I like and how they usually hail from the same country. What's wrong with that? Why does that need to be dissected? I don't get it.
