This guy reveals too much. He doesn't hate Wimbeldon or tennis nearly as much as he hates the suburbs.

No doubt this fellow will be hoisted by his petard in England which is what he secretly wishes... I thought he was talking about the NBA finals at first...

You can always tell a liberal from his deeply sick worldview, and hatred for "the suburbs" is now an entrenched part of the disease. First of all, where does the guy get off linking tennis and "the suburbs"? What, you can't be from the city and play a few sets?

Next, the author claims Wimbledon is a representation of modern Britain proving he's ingnorant as well as stupid, I mean how many decades of history does Wimbledon have, how many centuries does tennis itself have?

Next he claims tennis isn't a sport. Huh? Next it is a sport but it's boring. Is that silly view appropriate for news articles? The whole article reeks of a hidden agenda: sports played by the well-to-do and suburbanites are evil, the suburbanites themselves are evil and the suburbs are evil. Clearly, a dangerous article written with a rather obvious fascist political agenda.

I was scanning the headlines and I saw "It isn't sport and it isn't fun...." and for some reason, I thought they were referring to this: Dwarf Tossing

I guess the description of it being "suburban" should have made me realize I was mistaken
