Roger, Over and Out

Federer’s retiring, He finally announced. He hasn’t played in ages, but The newshounds, they all pounced. A classy player, through and through, He ranks up with the best, To which his many titles And his sponsors will attest. It wasn’t a surprise for fans And yet the message sent Is that, in tennis circles, There is something to lament.

Love the title, Ilene. We've lost a class act. Not too many left in sports these days. Oh, well. We've still got McEnroe as an announcer. What could go wrong there?! lol
