Roger's released the red RF hat!


Yea! It's says "Roger Federer Foundation" on the back and has the Nike swoosh on the side. And it's in red and white for Switzerland. I'm going to buy one for everyone in my town. No. My state. Good thing I invested in gold bars with my allowance when I was growing up.

Don't waste another minute. GET IT HERE!!!

Federer Interview After Losing Australian Open 2008 SF

This is so sad! My heart goes out to him. I want that outfit.

Federer VS Djokovic - Australian Open 2008 SF

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.

Federer-Blake QTR at Down Under 08 (Highlights)

Roger wins 7-5 7-6 6-4. Did we have any doubts? Love James Blake though. He's a good man. I highly recommend his book, Breaking Back.

AO R4 Federer vs Berdych highlights

Roger cruised past Berdych but narrowly missed crashing into beer crate

Roger gained entry into the quarters and a match against James Blake with a 7-6 (9-7), 6-3 over Thomas Berdych. But the drama came when he took a bathroom break after the second set (what? I thought he was like the Brady Bunch and didn't need a toilet) and then on his way back was surprised by a beer crate being pushed through a door, directly into his path and then had to leap over it to save himself. I hope somebody has the wherewithal to make this incident into a major video game. Can you imagine? They could call it The Big Game Bathroom Break and have all kinds of perilous situations that the player would have to navigate through. I'd buy it for sure.

Here's a blurb on the match straight from Roger's people so it won't be slanted at all. Just like this site!
