Uh Oh...

Roger lost in the semifinals of the Australian Open to Novak Djokovic...in straight sets. 7-5, 6-3, 7-6. Novak's heading into the Final to face Tsonga (Allez Tsonga!) without having dropped a set in the tournament. What is going on here??? I should be replacing Novak with Roger in this recap. This is ridiculous.

Afterwards Roger said, "I've created a monster, so I know I always need to win every tournament. Winning every other week means that when I just lose a set people say I'm playing bad."

Well, uh...shouldn't he win every time? He's the best to ever play the game! But seriously, like he said, the Semifinals of a Slam are pretty good. Winning your 12th Slam is better, but we'll take the Semifinals. And for the pundits who are saying, "Here starts the decline of Roger Federer," I say spare yourself from looking like a fool later on and just shut your mouth.
