Why does the world care more about Ronaldo than Andy Murray winning Wimbledon?
>>
Because football is more popular than tennis?
>>
It's the opposite, it's only the US that doesn't care about football because you guys suck at it
>>
>>69483987
Football is the world's biggest sport so understandably the media focuses more on the Portuguese victory.
>>
>>69483987
because tennis is shit and no one cares about EBAM

That's why our National Football League made $9.5 billion last year...

white guilt

>>69483987

I'm happy Murray won but:

a) Football is a bigger sport than tennis and
b) Ronaldo is a much bigger star than Murray

The only way Wimbledon could have been bigger news than the Euros is if Federer had won Wimby and the Germans had won the Euros. Because people love Federer and don't care about Germany.

>the US suck so much at football to the point they changed the name of a worldwide sport so they can feel better about winning at football
>>
>Tennis
>relevant or interesting
It's baseball tier

Because Murray is a depressed jock with the exact charisma of a brick wall

Serena made the news here. Murray not.
>>
>>69484037
He said football, not advertball
>>
b/c murray didn't face djokovic/nadal/federer in the tournament
>>
>>69483987
Because he won it already?
>>
>>69484150
pretty much this, even his reaction after the match was very subdued, almost like he knows it's a "ya, but...." win
>>
>>69483987
What the fuck is football? Is it like soccer?
>>
>>69484150
>>69484201
That might explain why there's less interest, but it doesn't mean it was a "ya, but..." win. Raonic is a very good player.
>>
>>69483987
Because tennis isn't an sport.
>>
>>69483987
Because tennis is a gigantic circlejerk of rich people who pretend they play sports, same for golf and cricket.
>>
Because Federer should have won it and now tennis is dead as dead.

Seriously, fuck tennis at this point.
>>
>>69484325
why the butthurt
i like federer too
but he's an old man now
>>
nobody cares about/likes murray

No. Tennis is about ASS.
>>
>>69484231
he is, but winning a slam in the current year without beating fed, novak or rafa is the definition of a "ya, but..."
