I completely agree with those saying we shouldn't be as concerned with who wins and loses. Of course I have my favourite players but I don't get al bent out of shape like some people do when they lose.
I don't know if the fans have changed that much or that the internet is more prominent now so we can easily access the views of so many people but since Federer and Nadal started their rivalry things have become ridiculously partisan. Federer and Nadal have obviously brought a lot of fans into the game but sadly some of those fans are idiots. I try not to show any preference to one or the other, even though I do prefer one of them, because you are likely to get bombarded with stupid comments.
