  • Off topic. This a tennis thread. 

  • I don't see how posting about Andy 'the ball buster' Murray who is currently lawn bowls champ of St Kitts and Nevis is a breach of rules?

Nae my fault this country is full of no voting cunts. Let me know if you get a nibble at that "mistake" thing.

 

Anyone using the fact he got a knighthood to justify anything hasn't really got his eyes open.

 

That's one of the stupidest comments ever posted.

Hardly a fact when most (>50%) in the NE never voted at all.

 

Most of the people WHO VOTED then.

 

Pedantry. The last bastion for nothingness.

Over the 7 constituencies making up the NE of Scotland, 134413 people voted Tory, as compared to 181578 people who voted for other parties/candidates.

Christ. You got nothing better to do you nothing's?

 

The vast majority of seats in the NE went to conservatives. That was my point. That was a disgrace. And obviously I don't expect many of you to agree. You voted them in.

I find myself watching my first tennis match for years, possibly decades.

 

Picked up the Murray match 20 or so minutes ago. My wife has had to vacate the room.

 

I'm giving it large for Fognini, a gentleman I've never heard of before.

 

What I don't get is the fawning and love for Sir Andy. That's what the wife said. He's a fucking sir!!!

 

My argument is that you all love him because he's successful. Did we all forget the dog died?

 

As for that disgusting wife and mother of his, good grief.

 

Shit. The eyetie collapsed. Like they did in the war. Cretin.

 

 

Unlike probably 80% of his jumping on the wagon success supporters...I've supported Murray since day dot.

 

the guy is fucking brilliant.

 

He panders to the establishment now but he probably has to after the hate he got from the England football comments.

 

Never liked Federer Nadal or Djokovic.

 

He does unfortunately return the ball weakly into the middle of the court far too often giving his opponents easy opportunities to belt the ball to the corners which puts him under more pressure than required.

 

His achievements as a Scot are incredible nevermind as a 'Brit'.

 

His ability to get to so many quarters...semis and finals in amazing.

 

I'm sure he must have some sort of record there above Nadal and Djokovic.

 

He was always the 4th man or not even mentioned in some tournament build ups which was disgraceful.

Well now they have to mention him.

 

he deserves his Sir title when you look at other lesser sportsmen and semi famous people.

 

I'm glad he has loads of support now but where were the glory hunters years ago when he was losing in semis and finals a lot and called a bottler.

 

And can we stop calling U.K. a fucking country!!!!!

 

:smile:

And anyway, the turnout is always over 50%. Where you getting your thinking from?

Querrey pulled that out of nowhere.  Murray was cruising, now we have a game on.

2-1 Murray. Nearly threw that one away like.

He's completely fucked.  Looks goosed.

Aye, 6-1 in the fourth. 2-2. Don't see him winning the final set. Although wouldn't put it past him either.

He really needs to break the next game if he's got a chance.

 

Or not...

Aye, fucked after the third really. Injured I assume, but he might not say as much as he's always quite magnanimous.

 

Ah well, I've always hated the Hibee English loser anyway.

Hollow victory, but deserved nonetheless. Murray was clearly injured but some excellent tennis regardless.

English aye?

Philosophically, nihilism would be the last bastion for nothingness.  Technically, it's more likely to be something like a bell jar.

English aye?

 

???

 

I didn't think I'd have to put [joke][/joke] round every comment.

What evidence have you got that I'm justifying anything with his knighthood? If it was up to me he'd have turned the fucking thing down. What a strange choice of words. He got the knighthood because he's achieved so much (I presume) where no other Brits (sorry but that's what we are until we vote otherwise) have.

 

Hopefully Mrs Rocket puts out soon because I can't be arsed with this clearly frustrated Rocket and his pedantry today.

I'm with you on the British Sporting GOAT argument. It's a no brainer for me.

 

Trust he now makes a sensible decision about his hip problems and puts them before his ranking & US Open if required.

It depends which meaning of nihilism we use but surely any nihilistic stance is a conscious decision, a philosophical choice whereas the pedant avoids engaging with anything substantive to merely pick at the form.

 

Having read Plath's The Bell Jar many moons ago, I found that very nihilistic and deeply tragic. As a physical container for a vacuum, that angle doesn't interest me.

 

A tweet yesterday from the only person I "follow" reminded me of pedants: -

 

"Blowing out someone else's candle doesn't make yours burn any brighter".

Maybe you should follow that advice rather than try and poke fun at members whose relationships have broken down.

Maybe you misinterpret stuff and should refrain from using pedantry to pick arguments for the sake of it, handing out holier-than-thou advice and engaging the most patent example of transference ever seen. Your hypocrisy and inconsistency is staggering so perhaps you might be better off sticking to each topic and making your own mind up about any given subject: -

 

 

I admit I'm nae a fan either

 

 

I love the guy for a few reasons.

I didn't think I'd have to put [joke][/joke] round every comment.

 

Id appreciate it thanks but only on your comnents ok

;D
