No disrespect to Joker, Murray,etc..whom have at times closed the gap and are tough outs

But, yet another year arrives, and when rested/healthy, to watch these two's strokes and lasers..

Just seems, on average, Rafa/Rog play on another level..

Such Pretty Tennis.

Nadal has really picked up his level, and Fed is just slipping with all these errors.

2 terrible games in a row from Fed, literally about as bad as it gets. Yikes

I do not want this to go to tiebreak, I think the clutch games and points favor Nadal. He is just in Fed's head.

Come on Fed, break him!

As their career pinnacles slide to/fro absolute primes..

Rafa will own Rog on more than just clay..will eventually own him on all surfaces.

Rafa can at times now, spot Rog early leads, and yet still reel him back in..and not just on say clay.

When healthy, Rafa can toy at times with Rog..possibly trying to keep up the great rivalry via slightly sandbagging for tv drama?

Geeze! Am I the only one favoring Rafa?
Don't get me wrong, these are my 2 favorite players (not a bandwagoner either) so I'll be happy either way, but I'm leaning towards Nadal

I always think, "what if" when I see that commercial.

What if just one of them went to LSU, with both of them being from NOLA.

Eli would have been under Saban @LSU.

No

Other than Clay their levels are entirely too close for either to let the foot off the gas.
