Sigh.

I can't stop sighing at my desk.

I'm pretty depressed about Federer's unexpected loss this morning in the quarterfinals.

I'm not kidding around.

I love everything he represents and everything he possesses.

Calm. Cool. Class.

He's gracious and eloquent,

and I think he is perhaps,

 the greatest athlete of our time.

He makes everything look so easy, effortless.

So, despite what Sport's Illustrated thinks,

I don't think it's the Fall of the King.

I think it's just going to take a little longer for him to pick up the coveted title of Grand Slam Winner.

Chin up, Rog.
