Well hopefully he can show some against an opponent who is expected to beat him.
I hope he goes in with the same attitude that Casey did last night. After all he also doesn't have too much to lose anyway. But he has respect to be regained.

Yep
I'm a big fan of Marcos too tho, so I really don't care who wins as long as its a good match.
Umpire dummy spits, Crowd chants, Baghdatis magic, Hewitt's fighting spirit.
Will hopefully be a good contest no matter the result.

I don't love the guy, I think he has over stepped the mark a number of times, I just can't beleive how much the media can influence people.
Two time Grand slam winner, a Clown?? Let me guess, Mark Phillipousis was your hero

two time grand slam winner, who gives a shit, he is a dead set clown. Guillermo Coria said it best, "He can be the best player in the world, win every tournament, but I would not want to be like him." He is a loser, not to mention a racist dog.
Using Coria to back up your argument, says it all really. Gotta love the two week a year tennis experts.
No one ever been able to give a clear reason for disliking him, just a lot of generalisation and ill informed opinion. I guess thats the society we live in. As I said I don't love Hewitt and think he will get done tonight and you don't have to like him but don't get swept up in the media circus.
A real reason? He is a poor sport, and whinger, and very discriminatory. Take your pick

He is a w***er, plain and simple.
Laughable that I should support somebody earning millions for playing a sport just because he is Australian when he is one of the biggest tools/w***ers in world sport.

Like I said you don't have to suppot him just becuase he is Australian. Again though it's just generalisations and insults, never any substance.
No worse sport than anyone else on the tour, players winge all the time about courts, umpires and everything else they culd possibly think off. All the way from Federer down. If you are refereing to the Blake comment, I think thats fair but many years ago and unfortunatly racism in a very big thing on the tour.
Not that two wrongs make a right and that its alright that everyone does it but I think people do go a bit overboard.
Anyway he should be out tonight and no doubt the argument will happen again this time next year.

These days, Federer, Murray, Gasquet, i'm on board with Tsonga too. In fact pretty much all the top players i like.

What did you think of Murrays behaviour in the first round? Not having a go just interested as it was very Hewitt like and its not the first time either. For the record Im a Murray fan though.

ha, mate, you are a bigger loser than hewitt. dead set. everyone on here has given clear reasons for thinking he is a damn loser. and what is this media circus you talk of?? i have already mentioned that all you hear this time around is 'our lleyton' and 'little battler'. more like 'little twat'. he is a god damn disgrace. ill informed opinion? it's very interesting to see you dancing through this thread.
If you are such an expert on it mate, what do you think of his little racist outburst that wiped out any credibility as a tennis player he might have had? you remember don't you?

Whenever I've seen Murray it has looked like he's had a couple of screws loose, always screaming at his coach for no reason.
Again just more insiults, this is what I am talking about it all keeps coming back to a few things, a long long time ago, with may similar comments made by other players over the years. The reasoning in my opinion has all been pathetic and often factually wrong and reported incorrectly by the media who have little understanding of the tennis tour.
As I said doesn't make it right but have seen a lot worse and I think he paid his dues for Blake incident in my opinion. Anyway time to move on.
Again its the media that write this not him and also while it was the first time hopefully you were equally outraged by todays paper calling Casey Dellacqua an 'Australian Treasure'. The fact I don't agree with that should I hold it against Casey?
