Yeah, they're both definitely on the down-slope & picking up speed. It's getting time for them to relax, enjoy their millions & their memories of glory.

I bet Federer in particular has a painful awareness that he'd certainly be considered the greatest of all time, if only the even more athletically gifted Nadal hadn't come along in his era.

If anyone can straighten out Tebow's throwing mechanics and prepare him for the huge job of taking over for Brady, Belichick can: he may be a cold fish and a play-stealer, but he's definitely one of the best coaches ever.
