You may wonder why roger federer is on my links list. One day I may even devote an entire blog to him. Tennis means something personal to me. I'm not that into sports, but this is one that just clicks for me, you know? I get it: I get its nuances and I know what it's like to think in tennis vocabulary. Anyway, the point is that I like him a lot. And though the site is a little lame in its reverential tone, it's a decent introduction to him and his accomplishments. Maybe Nick Hornby had it right in Fever Pitch. Maybe we do live through the successes of our heroes, and enjoy their triumphs without necessarily wanting to be them. Tennis is amazing. It's part of my home, whatever or wherever that is.
