I could care less if Barker is a journalist (which she is not) or a television presenter, either way this wasn’t her first time, and she is very experienced and knowledgeable in what she does. To me, she had to know what she was doing. How could a television reporter not know what she is doing right at that moment??? If she had these “slip-ups” all the time, she wouldn’t be where she is now.

Random: A woman just Twittered that she ate next to Mirka and Roger in a Zurich restaurant today. Lucky lady.

Did I just post a comment? Oh my goodness… Back to lurking…

Let’s forget that he stood up to applaud roddick, that he said he “was luck to win” and that he praised Andy heaps in the pressers and concentrate on a small 15 on the corner of his jacket that he didn’t know about prior to the match and make a big fuss out of nothing.

Seriously this has gone way out of proportion and the attempts to make Fed look like a twat are ridiculous. Gotta love all the hate he’s receiving in the forums etc. I wonder why? Oh yes, he’s back to winning Slams again and proving those doubters who said he was finished wrong!

rant complete.

The articles by Bodo an others are ridiculous. People who doesn’t like Federer will always find something to critizise.

And since “nothing is going to get in the way of her fedophilic behaviour”, then most probable, had no idea of the controversy a certain #15 would spark among the sports media, even though she has been in an environment involving tennis/journalism/sport media for most of her life…

She was really happy when he won the French, there was a long talk with her and Andy Castle during the coverage where it transpired that she was one of the few who hadn’t written him off last year. So I imagine she was ecstatic when he won Wimbledon. She really loves Rafa as well but I think she wanted Roger to win Wimbledon more last year – not that she said anything. I’m sure she’s happy about Andy Murray but nothing is going to get in the way of her fedophilic behaviour.

Although, I don’t mean to disrespect Barker, but I can’t help to think that she was resentful about the fact that Roger won Wimbledon, and not Murray, like the entire United Kingdom had hoped, hence the big deal they made about him and this year’s Wimbledon, and it backfired, just like it should. Therefore, the only way to ruin Roger’s amazing achievement was to publicly, worldwide, point out the small-discrete-pale coloured number “15″ on the bottom side of his jacket. She has been a journalist for a long time, and perfectly knew that fact would spark controversy in the sports media, as it did.

As far as Bodo goes, I believe he has genuinely, undisputably, rightfully, earned a new name: PATHETIC Peter Bodo…Of course, no disrespect towards him intended…

He wrote: “It was, a former Wimbledon star told me yesterday, ‘the most graceless acceptance speech I have ever heard’.”

I wonder if it’s true or if he’s making it up, since there is no name of the person who said it…

Anyways, my irritation towards THE JACKET was somehow eased by this article.It already made me feel good.

By no means, I’m trying to offend Sue Barker, but perhaps, she doesn’t like Federer very much and was resentful that he won Wimbledon, and not Murray, like the entire United Kingdom had hoped. Therefore, pointed out the “15″ on the jacket, to stir up controversy about it. She has been a journalist for some time now, and she knows very well the kind of facts that people criticize (especially, sport writers in this case). It made it much less “unusual” that she would point out to what Roger was wearing in the middle of the creremony, since his Wimbledon style had been criticised even before the tournament began…

I couldn’t agree more with this thought: “obviously, the british press is still hurting over the fact that when it comes down to the business end of grand slam tournaments, andy murray is a no show.”

Those sport reporters/writers have nothing else to criticize, not his game, not his personal life, but his style. It is more pathetic of them to do so, than Federer wearing that jacket, because if it weren’t for Sue Barker (whom I completely blame!) nobody would have noticed!!
