I enjoy watching tennis. I don't love it, but it's a good sport with next to no scandal, next to no celebrity gossip in the press, I enjoy it. it feels like it's genuinely about the sport more than anything else. However... I HATE watching a Tim Henman match. I don't mind the guy, but he has some of the worst fans in the world:
Fan A: Go on, you say it...
Fan B: What? No way, you do!
Fan A: I said it 13 times last year! And 7 the year before! You only said it 4 last year.
Fan B: 5.
Fan A: Could have sworn it was 4. Strawberry?
Fan B: No thanks. I'm still not saying it tho.
Fan A: Ok then, I will...
Fan B: Go on, go on!!! *Giggles like a school-girl*
Fan A: Ok... COME ON TIM!!!
Fan B: OMGWTFLOLBBQ!!!!1!!!!111!!
Really, How often do we have to fucking hear 'come on Tim'? Is that fan support? Really? I feel sorry for the chap if that's all the support he can get. He even has to rally these miserable boring bastards to cheer him on. Was watching him against the Russian dude just now and it was like the fans had had their life support turned off. Only when Tim made some movement like he was trying to swim in mid-air did anyone wake up. And you've got the commentators...
That old bastard: Good ol' Tim, he's such a funny gentleman.
McEnroe: Just ain't American.
That old bastard: Wonder how they're getting on over on 'Henman Hill'?
McEnroe: Who gives a shit?
That old bastard: Ah, there's Lucy in the stand, Tim's wonderful wife, always here for support.
*Camera switches to Lucy, looking like she'd rather be in the dressing room getting screwed by Tim's trainer.*
McEnroe: Her face reminds me of this shot I pulled off back in 86'...
That old bastard: Definitely Tim's year this year, always has been...
*Umpire gets knocked off his chair by a stray ball.*
McEnroe: LOL!!! Now that there's just about the funniest thing I ever did see. That's tennis folks, funniest sport in the world.
It pisses me off. I'm telling ya, football might have the cliched quotes, the scandal, and dickhead's who earn 50 times what they should be, but least they have genuine fans. Well, besides Manchester United. Bastards.
