Advantages: He's good
Disadvantages: He's boring
Pete Sampras is undoubtedly a great tennis player, however this does not make him an inspiring or indeed an interesting one. Every time I watch Sampras play I find myself supporting his opponent, even Keurten who frankly has terrible hair and it irks me terribly to have to support him. The simple fact is though I appreciate the mans talent Sampras is boring. His impassive face gives nothing away, his faultless tennis provides no surprises, and he looks remarkably like a cast off from 'Planet of the Apes'. I like to watch players who show emotion, play unpredictably, put on a good show, but invariably lose to sampras.....maybe its just sour grapes...

- 30/08/00 I remember Sampras used to have an unpleasant habit of slobbering his tongue out of the side of his month as he was preparing to serve. Distasteful to watch. He seems to have stopped doing it so much now. |

- 04/07/00 You are joking? Sampras? Gorgeous? Ok, so as a heterosexual guy it's hard to be objective, but if Sampras is "gorgeous" I do despair! |

- 01/07/00 It's true that Pete Sampras is the best tennis player at this time, and it's true that he shows little emotion. But that's the reason he is the best. He keeps his cool. Has remarkable talent, and he is the most gorgeous guy in the world! |
