I know I'm in the minority, but I like Nole and IMO nothing he's done is any more outrageous than the tantrums I've seen from Roddick, Agassi, Hewitt, JMac and so on over the years.
I think what's happened is that Nole's family has taken the soccer approach to being tennis fans - very vocal, colorful and in your face, which I can see could put off a lot of people.

I can agree with you, librarian. I just can't stand Roddick or Agassi or Hewitt or JMac.... There's no charm in any of them, including Djokovic. Sometimes a one player can throw a little fit but do it with charm, that's okay, if it's not frequent. The above-mentioned players seem to act like assholes because inherently, they are assholes. Sure, Agassi has mellowed. Age does that.

I think one of the best things about this board is that minority opinions aren't generally attacked (I should know, as I am a big Henin fan!) -- sure, they're argued with, and some (most?) of us can be vicious about the players we don't like, but we're not vicious to each other. Or at least those are my goals!

Tiki's post is a good one to end on!
I'll close this now, and open a new one come the French. Carry on in the general thread until then.
