The Ultimate Man

You know that guy from the Dos Equis commercials? The one who is the ultimate man? Well, I've got news for you...

He's not. And neither is the Old Spice guy.

They're pretty cool. Not gonna lie. Yeah, I'd probably hang out with them. Go for a few beers with them. But I'd ditch them in a second to hang out with the ultimate man. Who's that you ask? The ultimate man is Roger. Roger Federer. The Swiss Maestro. Fed Express. The Man.

Roger's not the kind of guy you want to just hang out with once in a while for a brew. He's the kind of guy you want as your neighbour. Your best man. Your fishing buddy. Your wingman. Your hero.

Yeah, big deal. He lost to Andy Murray today. He's got to let a few guys win once in a while so that they don't retire like Safin did. That's also why he's letting Nadal stay at No. 1 for a little bit. It's because Roger is THAT nice. He's the man.

No, I don't have a man crush on him. But let's look at the stats for a second:

A career record of like 700-170.

62 career titles.

237 straight weeks at #1 (285 weeks total).

Twin girls. Yeah...most people have 1 kid at a time. Rog spreads his seed to the max.

He wears a white Nike custom made suit just to walk on to the Wimbledon court.

Can you say classy?

Plus, he used to be a bad ass junior player full of profanity laced tirades (in German, French, English - yeah, that's right - three languages) and broken racquets and still gets respect from EVERYONE on the tour. They kind of have to respect him actually...they have no choice.

King of the World

Some people are athletes. They're just born that way. But to be an elite player, the best in your sport...no, the best in your sport's entire history, is another story. Roger was sent here to conquer tennis and he's done that. He toys with players on the court and they can't do anything about it. Yes, he loses the odd match, but c'mon - he is human...

THE ULTIMATE HUMAN

Let's be realistic here. Roger is the man. He can do anything. He's going to win the US Open.

Just sayin'.
