We all have a tendency to look back with greater fondness on an earlier time in tennis. I'm particularly fond of the players of the mid-late 80's into the early-mid 90's. But, after a little down time, you find someone new. I knew Andre's (there's that name again) career was winding down and one day in '05 I'm watching Novak, and without warning, a new favorite. Seles was gone and Capriati was on the outs, and Maria suddenly appeared. Plus, there are always some other back-ups, who may not be your all time fave, but will do in a pinch. That's why I was so critical of Serena during her down time. I needed her.
