Andy Pandering

It is amazing how the British press go into overdrive in praise of any homegrown sports man/woman who is half decent. Tim Henman being the prime example. The massive hype surrounding Andy Murray in the lead up to the Australian open was embarrasing. He was knocked out today by the way. Saw a little bit of one of his earlier games on the BBC and the commentators kept droning on about his physique. He's a feckin athlete, hardly surprising that he is in shape. Murray is better now than Henman ever was but I think it would help if the media didn't put him on a pedestal.
