CAMELOT FANTASIES

Quote from: Clay Death on November 29, 2013, 08:04:18 pm

i have known some major fed fanatics in my time. even the most objective ones can be major closet fed fanatics.


just look at masterclass. not a word about congratulating nadal, his team, his family, and his fans when he captured the Australian open.


instead his first and initial response: he ran to tennis frontier and said something to the following effect:


nadal will never win a slam off clay again. the next knee injury is almost here. and then he added something about poker or something. he said he will be back to playing golf and poker in no time flat after he destroy his knees.
this is minutes after nadal won the Australian open.




that was a bitter thing to say. now you know that time does not stand still. people are going to come and they are going to go. records will continue to be broken.


now i know masterclass is a smart and an objective fellow but fed is a religion to many of these people. it is what it is.

it really does not matter to me. i am enjoying it all.

I told you before, the very nature of sports is competitive and when things are this competitive, it is bound to get ugly - especially between fans. But that doesn't mean people are bad in general but just this side of sport that brings out the worst in them. I believe most sports fans are conditioned with it. Some are heavily so and some are probably less so. You shouldn't remember these things. They are mostly said in the spur of the moment - no one's above it - not even you. You have this big issue letting things go, dearest herc. Let it go. Who care so much?

no worries. I was just making a passing comments. some people take the nature of sports almost too seriously. nadal or anybody winning does not put one lousy dime in my pocket.



those were just passing remarks. he had said countless times that he was just objective and that he did not really have any favorites.


I am not worried about. and from the looks of it I don't think I can count on him for anything at all so I don't really care anyway.


we saw the true colors over time. we knew we would find out who were our friends would be when we starting building Camelot from scratch.


nobody came to even wish us luck.  that alone should have told us all we needed to know.

in looking back now, I am inclined to believe that they have done us a favor. they strengthened our resolve to make Camelot into something special.


anyway now we move forward.
