Andre Agassi
Any fans out there?
I am a huge fan and find it absolutely crazy that he admits to using Meth and tanking matches....now. 12 years after he got away with it and the ATP covered it up for him. How about Marat Safin saying he should give back all his Grand Slam trophies and prize money because he failed drug tests?

I love honesty. Martina should shut her mouth up.

I always wondered why he was so big into charity. Obviously he was advised years ago properly and now has the leverage to admit he was a methhead and tanked matches because he was worried about his toupee.
He should lose all of the titles and be forced to return all earnings. F.uck 'em and his wife for exploiting their kid in commercials.

Oh please Coach. He came clean. Meth is not performance enhancing unless cleaning your bathroom at 4am is a sport.

It has nothing to do with performance enhancing. He was a little b.itch and the atp covered it up for him and now that he's in the clear he wants to come clean?
This guy has always been a colossal douchenozzle. Only a douchenozzle would put their kid in a commercial and make them play the sport their mommy and daddy excelled in.

That's on the ATP, I agree. They look pretty awful. On him, who cares, I still like him...Other guys tank all the time. Fed tanked to Murray a few years ago in Cincy. He was tired. It happens.

But why come clean now? Why make his family go through this? Does he have an agenda other than wanting to sell more copies of his books? Wouldnt you think between him and his wife they have more than enough money for 10lifetimes?
It just seems like something doesnt fit. He got away with something a long time ago that enabled him the opportunity to keep playing a sport that made him millions of dollars and look like Mr Clean in the public's eye. Isnt it kind of ironic that he use to pimp a camera company whose motto was "Image is Everything?"

And lets be honest if he was doing crystal meth in 1997 then you can put 2 and 2 together and figure out Brooke was doing it as well. Notice how he didn't tell the truth on that one.
Here is an excerpt from the book Quote:

i loved andre throughout, and still am a fan now. couldn't care less about his having taking drugs, and don't care that he didn't always give his all-he only hurt himself in losing, he wasn't part of a team that he screwed because of his actions. marat safin just wants some press.

a lot of stuff gets found out. maybe he wanted to have it all come out on his terms, rather than go through others exposing him, and him having to deal with all of that. as for kids playing their parents sports, i doubt archie manning gets grief that two of his kids followed in his footsteps.

This is kind of funny. Note that Marat Safin does not even make this big list of players Andre had to contend with over the years. Maybe thats why Marat Safin is so mad. Its kind of a diss when you think about it, because Safin is a much better player than some of these on the list like Roddick...

Anyone read his book "Open"? I am just finishing it up and its a really good read. Better for those people who are fans of tennis and able to relate to many of Andre's matches, but a lot of people could gain appreciation and inspiration from this book.
