Why I Didn't watch 2013 Wimbledon

This is the video that did me in.  All of the big hitters fell out of this tournament.  I believe (not a fact) that the grass is in bad shape and the players did not want to get in trouble for complaining about it.  So they went on strike.

I don't like Wimbledon that much anyway.  Hard court tournaments are fast, Clay court tournaments are slow but educational, grass sucks.

1.  The courts.  The courts have been slowed down like 3 or 4 years ago.  Which took the whole point of grass courts away.  Sure, longer rallies are great.  But we JUST watched Roland Garros.  So we are done with that.  Anyway, to pay for the slower courts the players now have to deal with slippage.  It does not benefit me psychologically as a player to see people fall in ways that would rip my knee apart.

2.  No colors, no sponsors.  No sponsors.....maybe rolex or something.  The cost of everything is strictly from the fans.  LAME.

3.  I can't play on it.  I live in Atlanta.  I can find hard courts.  I can find clay courts.  I can find INDOOR courts.  I CANNOT find grass courts.  So the only joy about it is watching people play on some stuff I can't.  BUT I cannot relate when people say "That's the advantage of a grass court."

I'm pretty much taking a break on grass court season for a while.  It's only like 3 weeks long anyway.  I have enough old matches in my library to last me a while anyway.
