Very refreshing this little text by rafaelnadalfans.com
This is a flashback about sleeveless Rafa.
It's a delight to read and relax on Friday.
And the best line: "Nike did make it up to us, we may not have sleeveless shirts anymore, but we have short shorts."
I really had fun reading it, because is simply so much cuteness 
http://t.co/IyE2CSD1gr
I saw that too, and was going to post it.
I did love the pirate look. So revolutionary and unique. Some others tried cough, cough (Monfils, Haas, and Russell), but it just wasn't the same, LOL!
I just loved your comment TT, "I did love the pirate look. So revolutionary and unique. Some others tried cough, cough (Monfils, Haas, and Russell), but it just wasn't the same, LOL!" hahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahhaha!!! This is perfect!!!!!!
...Equally refreshing and hilarious. I agree with every word that you posted.
And we can be crazy my friend... because we love Rafa! Very, very, very so much!
))))))
Tis' true my friend. Rafa has touched my heart like no other. I wish I had a tenth of his qualities, like perseverance, hope, optimism, and work ethic. It's about more than a sport, it's whether or not an athlete has qualities I desire for myself, and Rafa fits the bill very nicely.
Totally! This is what I think also, I just wanted to have a bit of Rafa mentality. I swear my friend, I think just like you.
I think that's why people love him. He's human like us. His traits are achievable so we can do it too. -

That's right my friend! He isn't worried about being God, he just wants to be human. -

Yep. There's enough big egos around. That's what makes him so refreshing. It's why I like Murray too. I can't stand egotistical people. -

Really, egotistical people are unbearable... Everywhere.
I also think Murray a nice guy... and every day I'm more sure of it. -

This is a recent interview of our Rafa:
http://youtu.be/TnxdRv2lA7w
Thanks, this is helping me with my Spanish. I picked up three words: America, Istomin, and Rafa.
Also, I was playing around with the icons under our names (I had never noticed it before) and I may have sent you an empty email, or not. I don't know what happened. -

hahaha... I'm sorry my friend. I understand a bit of Spanish language, because it has some similar words to the Portuguese language.
...but I'll try to translate some things he said:
Rafa said feels good in Miami because has followers and thus feel happy and comfortable in the tournament . He says that winning is your goal. So he wants to keep playing in order, in control, with the motivation and confidence to accomplish chances of winning .
When asked about the favoritism, he says doesn't feel favorite... Rafa just wants to keep playing at a good level, because just getting to the final stage can be considered as one of the favorites for the title.
He also admires and praises all the history and trajectory of Stomin in tennis, to keep fighting and loving this sport .
About his back, Rafa feels better because he is no longer in pain and limitations as happened in Australia and Rio... So he can serve better, perform normal and natural gestures effortlessly.
In percentage terms, Rafa is amused and says it is impossible to define in numbers, but admits to playing with one hundred percent of your current potential.
About surgery Del Potro, Rafa wishes a good procedure, a good recovery and return to him.
***********
And now I'm really curious about your playing with our icons, I need to see this immediately!!!! I'll try to find it

Well dear heart, I am going to stick with Portuguese, since that's your language. I thought you spoke Spanish, but I don't want to put you out in any way, but thanks for translating it.
About the icons, there's one that says applaud (clap) and smite (kill). But, when I clicked applaud it sent me to email? I'm going to keep looking at it too and try to figure it out. -

No problem, my dear, will be an honor.
I'm also trying to learn Spanish because of Rafa, then we can learn together.
And maybe you can't imagine, but you help me a lot here to learn more English. I'm afraid to write something wrong, so I'll guide me always by your texts. Thank you infinitely.
And it will be great fun to discover what exists through our icons -

Learning Spanish because of Rafa. I'm game.
Your English is pretty good. I can't imagine being on a Portuguese tennis forum. I don't know how I can help you, unless I write something that you don't understand and I will tell you in simpler terms, or if you don't understand things that are symbols in our culture.
This will be fun. I used to have a German pen pal for several years and didn't learn a dang thang, except for danke shein? which meant thank you.
This time I will do better. -

You are simply hilarious.
I really love your writing, because it has a simple way... So it's totally understandable.
I always look the way you wrote as a basis for structuring my sentences, it becomes much easier to use verbs, pronouns and adjectives.
And, of course, will be great to learn more about their culture. I'll love it.
Well, I'm trying, but I know that sometimes it is difficult to avoid some errors. I'm sorry...
Ah! And "thank you" in Portuguese is: "Obrigada" (for us women, the female response) and "Obrigado" (for men, male response).
So,
Thank you my dear = Obrigada minha querida
Obrigada, that's a very pretty word. I like it. -

In this interesting interview Rafa is very honest as always... but he is also very affectionate.
http://wp.me/p29rHj-5by
...Because of these things, and these attitudes that I'm sure I never had an idol like him before. And I think I'll never have another idol like him for the rest of my life. Rafa is simply incomparable. Rafa is unique.

He is, isn't he? So darn open and honest.
There is no one like Rafa!
What a great human being.

It is true my dear Rosa.
I just can't stay mad at him.
Some people get angry when he loses as lost on Sunday... I can understand them, but I can't be bothered with Rafa, even more when I see her interviews.
...Rafa deserves our respect, understanding and support always. -

Camelot and the great RAFA Nation at Camelot stands united for Rafa forever and ever.
