has a new Aussie hero emerged?

January 20th 2008 22:00
Ill have to say I have NEVER been a fan of Lleyton Hewitt. When he married Bec I paused for a moment and considered that somewhere deep inside must a nice guy, because, well, she seems nice, doesn't she? Those thoughts quickly turned to pity for her and the mistake she must have made.
Lets face it, I am probably not alone. Lleyton, although he has been the best Tennis player we have produced for a very long time, has not been a favourite of the Aussie people. We would buy and sell Pat Rafter a million times over before we care for Lleyton.

I don't know if I am alone, something happened on the weekend to change my view of Lleyton Hewitt. It wasn't his gutsy victory, we've seen plenty of those. It was simply his sportsmanship. WOW, he seemed like a different guy, or was that the real him we saw and he just needed a little more maturity to show us? I don't know but I can actually say that he won a fan in me over the weekend.


Having Tony Roche as a coach could be the major factor, Tony has long been a hero of mine, I went ot one of his tennis camps as a young kid, over and above erverything we were taught to enjoy ourselves and be good sports. I don't imagine he'd take any attitude from Lleyton and I honestly think this is a match made in heaven. We all know Lleyton has got the goods, now its possible he has become the full package to be the aussie hero we need. Soap star wife ,a beautiful daughter, a champion in his field and a good sport to boot.

I don''t mind the sport, but spare me the personals. I like GOOD morals and treating people well and she's as bad as him as far as I'm concerned. I don't like these public images, it makes me feel like throwing up.

Lleyton and Bec have always been my role models in life.

I really can't stand either of them, and it's going to take more than the influence of a new coach on Lleyton's 'manners' to change that!

He is an arrogant, bow-legged little prick, and she's an opportunistic no-talent faker.

They have sold every special, private event in their lives to the highest bidder, and screw (or sue) anyone else.

Lord but I'm being a bitch today! Well, I like YOU Louie.
