For the past (however long it is), I have been hearing person upon person online, on TV, in the paper saying how Sampras is done and this and that. And to be honest, I get sick of it. I am not the biggest Sampras fan, but I like him because he is an American and he seems like a nice guy. And most certainly he is not done. His best tennis may be behind him, but if he is 70% as good as he used to be, its still as good as most people out there. He may not win again, he may win again. I am rooting for him right now though. He's a great player and his talent + experience could definitely equal more more major or two.

Anyway, just thought I'd say that.

Huh?

I think he's alright. I saw him playing the other night and he seemed to do well.

Another classic Agassi-Sampras championship matchup. I wonder if we will ever see another.

Yeah! That was fantastic!

I have always been a big Agassi fan, but I have always liked Sampras as well.

I always liked Sampras more (one of my friends a big Agassi fan). Congrats to him.
