Cool thread!

I really liked Pete Sampras. He was the champion of many a tournament and had all the attributes that added up to make him a great champion. A good and quiet personality, a polite man that let his tennis do the talking. He showed barely any emotion which was part of who he is but was also in respect to his opponents.

Everyone should know who he is! But heres a huge picture if you dont:

Nowadays, I like Roger Federer. I'm unsure if I can choose between him and Sampras, they share alot of the same traits Federer's also a great champion and a really nice fellow as well. Oh, and he knows his way around the tennis court pretty handily too.

Favorite sports athlete would have to be Davie Cooper. Can remember seeing him play for Rangers years ago and he was an amazing player.
e could have gave so much back to the game of football through coaching youngsters.
