Days after Djokovic is praised for a gracious speech about Wawrinka's success, Boris Becker complains that he is being silenced


 I don't agree with Boris Becker about politeness and good sportsmanship being bad for tennis. I am the first non-media person to forward his post or comment on it, so maybe others agree with me. I stopped watching tennis during the Boris Becker, Agassi, Lendl, Sampras era so that I missed the early Federer years. I saw a Gillette ad with Tiger Woods and Thierry Henry and I asked myself "who is that third person?" After I looked up the ad on the internet and realized it was the tennis player that everyone was talking about and I started watching tennis again.
