What do you think the word record means?

It certainly doesn't have the same meaning as the word accomplishment in this context. I never said that Federer had accomplished everything.

It's either the Semi's or Finals every major anyways, and either one destroys Feds so I doubt they care much actually.

Because Federer didn't have a couple match points against Djokovic in the US Open last year or anything...

How a golden slam falls outside of this definition is beyond me.

Oh, you were referencing a "golden slam"? Did you not read the part of my original post that asked if you were referencing something specific, or are you just intentionally acting like an idiot to annoy me?

And lost, want a cookie?

It's been 2 years since his Aussie Open title and counting.

I have no faith in Fed to win another major without some much luck (injury to Rafa/Joker).

And I fully believe that if that drop shot goes over, Fed would have 17 slams right now

I actually don't know if he will win another Slam. It's certainly not a position that I'd argue against. His best bet is to keep #2 heading into RG and hope that Nadal and Djokovic end up in the same half of the draw. He could certainly beat Novak there. I think that he could beat either one of them at Wimbledon given the way he's been playing, but I probably wouldn't pick him to win.

Acting like he sucks now though is just stupid. He's been the most successful player on tour since the end of last year.

Saying he isn't gong to win a major and saying he sucks are two different things.

You are being ignorant if you think there is no way he will win another slam.

Based on what? He's playing well enough to win a major right now.

Saying "he's been done for years" (which is the exact quote we were arguing) is a lot closer to saying that he sucks than saying he won't win another major.

It's also stupid to act like nobody cares about Masters 1000 series events or the World Tour Finals.
