He either posted a pic that showed too much skin or he linked a porn site.

Damn.

I don't know much about bannings, does doing that 1 time get you permanently banned?

Don't know honestly. I don't think he did it on purpose, someone (TreyAnastasio I think) was trolling him about Lacey Duvalle and he either linked to a questionable site or didn't look closely enough at a pic that was posted Not sure if intent matters to the admins

I think they treat it similar to racism, it's harder to bounce back from one of those two offenses unless you have enough posters vouching for you.

Will be interesting to see how long Peej's timeout lasts

Finals appearances are worthless and Rafa's legacy would be stronger if he had lost earlier in the tournament - MSB logic.

No. Should Fed have to win more at RG to be in the goat discussion?

It really should imo he's a clay court specialist that stole a couple on other surfaces
I think it's absurd how some are so ready to anoint him the GOAT in light of his struggles on other surfaces
Keep in mind i only mean "struggles" as it relates to being the GOAT
he is an all-timer no doubt

I know he has taken Wimbledon twice but you look at other guys like Federer and Sampras who won over 5 times and multiple times in a row, and since Wimbledon is pretty much the most prestigious tournament like the Masters is he needs to win more there IMO to be in the GOAT conversation.


Not a Nadal fan but the guy has won Wimbledon twice and made the finals 5 out of 6 years from 2006-2011. So, in short, no.

Also, let's not forget that if not for a pulled back in january in the final, Nadal probably would have become the first person since the 60's, and only the second male ever, to win each slam at least twice.

That's pretty much the opposite of someone who can be labeled a one court specialist.

Yes. But a favorable record vs Roger helps.
