O dear, was looking for a present for a Fed fan so I looked at the official website. Just a calender is 20 pound, a cap (an ugly one, with the logo) 39 pound.

We decided to choose another present.... (lol)

I think Federer is I nice Guy, Just sayin
I don't dislike Fed, andyfan.
I've had my eyes opened to certain behaviours since I joined this forum. Prior to that, I thought he was the most polite, gracious tennis player on tour.
The man is constantly adored and feted wherever he goes and at whatever he does... and I think having been surrounded by this on a daily basis for years upon years has had an effect.
Whenever I post something silly about Fed, it's just to be silly. No malice intended from me at all.

Having seen him coming and going from the O2 practise courts and noting how he dashed past his fans as quickly as possible (with the help of several minders), I'm now in no doubt that he is a tit.

If that was Djokovic people would be going on about how funny he is.

I know.. but Fed can't pull off a Nole, and that's what makes it funny.
Novak is the master of this stuff because it's comes naturally.

No doubt that Djokovic is a natural. If I had to pick 2 players for a tennis charity event it would have to be Djokovic and Roddick. They're both very natural and very funny. Andy is getting better but he's still a little shy. Same with Rafa. I do remember Federer trying to diffuse the situation that arose with Sampras and Agassi during the 'Hit for Haiti' charity match. Rafa was staying well out of it. He's still seems a little uncomfortable in these type of situations.

Sorry, but I'm a bit lost here. Where and when did this take place? Fed just looks like a poofter anyway.

These two are brilliant. I thought Andy did very well though in the Rally for Relief after the Queensland floods last year.

I didn't see all of the Rally for Relief, but I do remember seeing some clips where Andy was having quite an exchange with one of the women players, Clijsters if I recall. There was some very suggestive grunting going on lol.
I think Djokovic is a showman, but sometimes it can back-fire on him. The Darth Vader mask in Paris might have been a laugh if he hadn't turned round and lost the match, by which time it made him look a bit of a prat.
I think Andy is funny, but he is still a bit shy. Nothing wrong with that though, it just means that he's probably happier to shut up and let the tennis speak for him. That match against Llodra at the AO is a classic example of one that was entertaining as well as competitive.
Talking of Andy being shy though, I'm sure he is a bit more relaxed in interviews since winning the Olympics and the USO.

I absolutely loved it especially the part where Andy and Nole exchanged quite a few balls at the net and then hugged it out. So genuine and priceless! I’ve watched it so many times in the past.
