<p>wow people dont get sarcasm at all anymore. hello. i misread nbachris's post as meaning that federer had a higher level of competition.</p>
<p>nbachris2788 has said "When comparing Federer with Sampras, how's the level of competition? Is Andy Roddick or Lleyton Hewitt as good as Sampras' biggest rivals?"</p>
<p>so i sarcastically said agassi (who was one of sampras' biggest rivals!!!) didnt compare didnt compare with lleyton or andy. of course agassi was/is a greater player than hewitt or roddick. i was being sarcastic. </p>
<p>and if you finished reading my post i said "when sampras* was playin you had guga, rafter, agassi, moya, rios (when he didnt tank), ivanesavic, kafelnikov (sp?), among many others. there's no way you can say that the level of competition was lower for sampras than it is for federer."</p>
<p>i was pointing out agassi was one of sampras' biggerst rivals and one of the greatest players ever, and therefore pete's level of competition was just as high as federers.</p>
