lol pathetic little man?? he's one of the all-time greats you ignorANUS...best doubles player ever, greatest volleyer ever, had the winningest single-season singles record in history...you cannot be serious.
The only jerk is you John,get off the drugs you lunatic.You got what you deserved in the end you fool.Tatum O'neil said you regually took drugs,disapointing they didn't drug test you cos you embarassed the sport for too long.Good player but a complete clown,should've been locked up in a lunatic asylum
@kadaitcha72 fuck off loser he was a great player that wanted to win and if the ump was going to cheat him out of it in his mind he'd let him know... don't fuck with john mcenroe
@rangerfreak616 nobody said he wasn't a great player,i was just saying that to everyone other than the americans he was an embarassment to the sport, look at the way he acted,he admitted he was on drugs & it showed by his attitude.Who did he think he was calling an UMPIRE a jerk???
if they had the challenge system back in the day, I hate to say it but John McEnroe would not have been the character we know him as. And there will never be another one again.
@MrPernell27 No matter the type of equipment, 6 foot 3 inches Robin Soderling would plaster 5 foot 8 inches Laver 6-2, 6-2, 6-0 even if Laver used a modern racquet and Soderling used a wooden one
You sound like another person stuck in the past not realizing how different the game was. You probably would rank Bill Tilden in the top 5. Federer, Sampras, Borg, Lendle, Laver
Of course they are inthe equation. As for what Lendle said about Laver. Doesn't matter, everyone had a hero. Doesn't change the simple FACT that laver DID NOT play the best players in 1962, and in 1969 3/4 were on grass. The feild wasn't as deep, and ANYONE who knows ANYTHING about tennis knows Federer and Sampras would OWN laver!
Laver could not play betwen 1962 and 1969, otherwise tha story would have been different. About be so certain that Federer and Sampras would own Lever, I'd like to see them play Laver if Laver was given a modern day TRAINING REGIME and Federer and Sampras were to play with a WOODEN RACKET ! Then we can start say something.
@EntropyMartini Laver did play in 62 and 69, furthermore Roy Emerson win more majors and Ken rosewall had a winon. Record against him. As for Sampras and Deseret playing with a wooden racquet, it's odvious from their games that they would have been just fine with wood racquets. 5'8, 145lb Laver would get his ass kicked by 6'1,181lb federer and by Sampras. No matter what equipment they used.
McEnroe would play with guys like Djokovic and Nadal killing them at the net with his peerless volleying like he did Lendl who was a better version of those guys.
Then put the likes of Nadal back then with a wooden racket and McEnroe would humiliate him. I'm also a Nadal fan btw and he's a great clay courter perhaps as good as Borg but on a fast surface Mac would kill him.
Fed would give him a contest but I think McEnroe would edge him out most times.
That's like saying Tiger Woods is a very good golfer! McEnroe was the most talented player ever full stop. With the exception of the almost as gifted swiss genius the rest today would get beaten like a rented mule by Mac in his prime.
Yea, McEnroe was great but Federer is greater. He's considered by most experts and players alike as the greatest of all time and his career isn't over yet. There would be no difference if Federer, Nadal or anyone else grew up using wooden rackets, it's about what you're used to using. Players are also judged by the quality of their opponents. Today's game is much faster and more labour intensive. The required fitness level alone is probably beyond what McEnroe had.
Yes but in his day McEnroe was the best. He did what was required to win. He had the greastest hands in tennis and he moved like a cat. You can't compare players from different eras. And what about Rod Laver?
@Schrittwieser I'd say Laver is a close second to Federer and was better than McEnroe. I think you can compare players if you look at the competition they had and how they played. You can also do that by comparing the playing style of today. I said before, the fitness level now required is probably beyond what these guys had. The game is much faster and Gruelling. Plus better training techniques and heath factor too today Its the job of todays players to better the previous generations.
Laver is way overrated. He played when 3 of the 4 majors were on grass, so no clay court spealists. The first time we won the grandslam he didn't even play the best players cause they weren;t allowed to play. Gonzales, and Kramer would have owned Laver. Mcenroe, Sampras, and especially Federer would have kicked laver's ass.
wilkoman it was a different game in the 60's,70's and 80's. I don't know how old u r? And if u r familiar with John's life. But he stayed at home and lived with his parents. He was Harry Hopman's last pupil. No one had hands like his. Mac was a bad boy he lived in NYC. He partied with Led Zep and the Stones.He never trained,But he still has the best record of anyone for 1 yr. 1984.And he was more exciting to watch than anyone!
@Schrittwieser Partying could mean anything. It doesn't necessarily mean that he was staying up all hours, drinking booze and taking class A drugs. You'd have to be super human to not train and still be a top ranked player, was he playing chumps most his career? Lets face it, that's just impossible! High fitness is very important, so I don't believe it. If that's true that just proves that fitness wasn't a big issue back then and he would get hammered if he played now.
@Schrittwieser Again, that doesn't mean he abused his body though. As far as I know he never took partying to the level that his friends did as he was worrying what it would do to his game. He knew it probably would hurt his career. He's bad but he's not stupid.
I'm an athlete. My friends and I know by experience what too much partying can do to our performance. It's all-bad. You can't party on Saturday and win a grand slam final on Sunday! I don't care who or how fit you are.
I don't know how old u r Pernell but I hope very young. Laver is regarded by most Pros as the best player before Rodger Federer. Ivan Lendl quote. " I have given up trying to decide who was is the best of all time. It was laver before 2000 and Rodger after 2000." Laver was McEnroe's idle. I hope u got to see him play. I don't care about the service, he dominated the sport!!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I know why he behaved like this (and still does to this day). He cames from a "well to do family" born with a silver spoon shoved up his ass. Nothing wrong with that.
But he probably acted this way (like a spoiled brat) whenever he didn't get his own way since he was a kid. A poor loser a well.
I admired his unique style of play and all his tennis records, but even to this day...he's a dick!
I don't know how Mcenroe was able to get away with all that he did. I wish he had been fined as heavily as Serena was or kicked out altogether. Why did they put up with this jerk?
He got away with it because he was the most gifted and entertaining player in the history of the game to watch. This guy filled the stands. All the pros came out to watch him play. He was awesome and the outburts added to his lure.
Lets face it folks.Tennis is like watching paint dry. The only time that i have ever watched it while channel surfing around was when that grunting russian chick wud be playing or when Johnnie Mac playing way back when.
Yea Johnny Mac was the center of attraction on the Pro tour, but still, his tirades like this were unacceptable. People perceived him as a "spoiled brat Yank", but he was only like this on the tennis courts. He didnt trust the linesmans calls, and I have to agree that some of the Umpires at Wimbeldon are really pathetic. The one had really thick glasses!
He was not only like this on the court. I've known several people who have met him over the yrs and he acts like a dick when you meet him. Like he'd rather be set on fire then say 2 words to you. He's just an overated little bitch.
Ah bullshit the guy was a creep. He did this as much to throw off the other guy as much as anything. He played to the grandstand and was a prick as a human being.
Back then, they couldn't have suspended him from Tennis? After all the tantrums he has thrown, why couldn't they just disqualify him for an entire season or two?
imagine how boring tennis would be those days without john mac....he was the reason why tennis is one of the most watch sports during those days....your my idol john
I'd say you're right about that guy being a little clueless. But actually I'd say Federer has amazing feathery touch as well. He doesn't just rely on racquet technology... like how he can return Roddick's serve so easily while barely swinging. We also have to realize that faster ball speeds means quicker reflexes are needed, and more agility. Personally I'd say some of the players around today have been trained to be a lot more agile and quick due to how much pace is being put on shots.
Are you retarded? Do you ever think about racket technology, balls and court surface and how much things have changed? Anybody with any tennis knowledge would just laugh in your face right now.
Yes but at the end of the day not all of the players back then would have had the ability to be able to use the new faster raquets and courts most athletes back then wouldnt thats why we have so few amazing tennis players at any one time.
I think you hit the nail right on the head. I think hes Jewish because he appeared on the HBO series Curb Your Enthusiasm with Larry David. Most of the co stars on that show are Jewish.
I love you Mac ! Jag såg denna semifinal mot Anders Järryd. Ett typiskt tecken att vilken annan spelare som helst hade fått matchstraff. Nu var dock spelaren John McEnroe, vilket innebar att han inte fick det för turneringens skull.
You sound retarded, the man was a genius and filled the stands. Everyone came out to watch him play. He was explosive and more talented than anyone ever.
That's no excuse for acting like a spolit brat and getting away with contravening the rules. They should have made an example by defaulting him early on in his career. That would have been warning enough for McEnroe and other players. As it is, when he was eventually defaulted at the 1990 Australian Open he was past his prime.
Yeah, someone should have stood up to him. It's kinda of funny how everyone was afrain of him, players, umpires, the press, etc. I is just a little guy, not even six feet tall, and 165 lbs. He is just a punk, someone should of just kicked the shit out of him.
lol Mac was even in mr deeds. but he dint go too bazirk. he just jumped 10 feet high to avoid an oncoming car and swore at the driver. but they had a real ragin time!
BRILLIANT! Thankyou for writing that. I knew I'd heard that somewhere about the King of Sweden getting splashed but couldn't remember where for years. Even none of the supposed brilliant text answer services could find out if the king was there or got splashed either!
load the video & in the address bar, add on to the existing address with NO space "&fmt=18" (WITHOUT quotation marks obviously) This makes every video slightly better quality video and sound. Go ahead try it.
I knew about the blue button beneath the video screen saying "watch in high quality" was there for some videos, and i knew that it added &fmt=18 to the address bar, but i didn't know u could type it yourself for EVERY video. Enjoy!
its like hes acting. when i get mad, I destroy. people get thrown through windshields of cars. if he were really mad, hed be ass raping the line judge.
"Sebhelyesfarku" (oh wow what a clever name, I wish I was that witty) I suggest you be careful who you make insulting comments to pal. If you talk like that directly to someone it won't be long before you get clobbered.
i won't be surprised at all to see it happen. will ferrel makes alot of sports movies and i think tennis is coming up, and who else can his character get inspiration from? it's gotta be the Mac!! with all the screaming, raquette breaking, it's gonna be one hell of a movie!
I watched Johnny Mac play in the late 70's and through the 80's , he took the stuffines out of Wimbledon, yes he got overheated , yes he wasnt as balanced emotinally as Borg who he eventually beat, but he drew me into this great game of tennis, dont think the bland Borg would have done the same. Today his commentary and style is sublime on the bbc. Johnny Mac for Prime Minister tee hee!!
lol pathetic little man?? he's one of the all-time greats you ignorANUS...best doubles player ever, greatest volleyer ever, had the winningest single-season singles record in history...you cannot be serious.

That would have been warning enough for McEnroe and other players. As it is, when he was eventually defaulted at the 1990 Australian Open he was past his prime.

I hear ya!
Yeah, someone should have stood up to him. It's kinda of funny how everyone was afrain of him, players, umpires, the press, etc. I is just a little guy, not even six feet tall, and 165 lbs. He is just a punk, someone should of just kicked the shit out of him.

In his autobiography he says that soda water splashed the King of Sweden who was sitting in the front row.

BRILLIANT! Thankyou for writing that. I knew I'd heard that somewhere about the King of Sweden getting splashed but couldn't remember where for years. Even none of the supposed brilliant text answer services could find out if the king was there or got splashed either!
I'm going to get his autobiography now!

GREAT TIP!!!
On this, or any other video-
load the video & in the address bar, add on to the existing address with NO space "&fmt=18" (WITHOUT quotation marks obviously) This makes every video slightly better quality video and sound. Go ahead try it.
I knew about the blue button beneath the video screen saying "watch in high quality" was there for some videos, and i knew that it added &fmt=18 to the address bar, but i didn't know u could type it yourself for EVERY video. Enjoy!

I watched Johnny Mac play in the late 70's and through the 80's , he took the stuffines out of Wimbledon, yes he got overheated , yes he wasnt as balanced emotinally as Borg who he eventually beat, but he drew me into this great game of tennis, dont think the bland Borg would have done the same. Today his commentary and style is sublime on the bbc. Johnny Mac for Prime Minister tee hee!!
