CAMELOT FANTASIES

baron's troop needs to learn to debate first before I need to sharpen up. Can't even present facts just some blind worshiping and nonstop twisting of facts. I am neither a Federer fan or a Nadal so I have no selling point here, so I don't mind exposing anyone's weakness if I feel like it. I just don't like people making blanket statement like Sampras was not even average on clay. Well, at least you know who's what. And let baron know that I've spent all my life posting on forums like CNN, Worldcrossing so I know how to tough it out if anything but whether I want to still do it especially against a bunch of idiots that is the question.

The part you had most disagreement with people over was Sampras' standing on clay courts.  Most disagreed with you from all fanbases including other Sampras fans.  The thread was about Murray and then moved onto Sampras... Are you sure you didn't have a dog in the race? 

No, I don't have a dog in the race. I don't care for such nonsense. I was there at first to defend Murray. The evidence is still there if you care. Whatever happened afterwards was strictly circumstantial - a case of one thing leading to another. It happens unless Federer fans are completely oblivious to it.

And which other Sampras' fans disagreed with me? I'll be damned if there's any true Sampras there like me.  Kieran and Tented may like Sampras but they are much bigger fans of Nadal and that will always downplay Sampras and overplay Nadal. And Kieran didn't even disagree with me as far Sampras was concerned. In fact, he gave 'likes' to most of my Sampras related posts. To be even more honest, my conversation with him was much more pleasant and we both stayed within reasons and on course, while discussing Murray and Nadal on grass. And I don't remember any posts from Tented so whoever these Sampans fans are, I have successfully missed them. The conversation took a different turn when I started talking about Federer and his so called achievements on clay. If anything, I have presented all my posts with real information, facts etc. There was no speculations or assumptions there from my side unlike the fans who tried to defend Federer.

And I have showed over and over again that Sampras wasn't bad on clay at all as it's made out to be by some desperate fans. I never said Sampras was great on clay; that was implied by Federer fans as usal. In fact, I said he was good enough to beat the likes of Muster, Corretja, Muster, Bruguera, Courier, Agassi etc. in his time. The competition on clay was overall just higher than now. For a decade or so, the clay season has only seen 1 or 2 players competing at the top level and that opened up all sorts of possibilities therefore, results. For all I know, from 1998 to 2004, Federer got beaten by the likes of Guga, Corretja, Lorna etc., all clay courters. Rome wasn't built in a day and I wasn't born yesterday. So it would be a fail attempt to convince me otherwise.
