And so did Michael Chang. http://www.fortwayne.com/mld/newssentinel/6624284.htm

So long guys, thanks for playing.

Sampras was the most dominating player in tennis when he was on the game. I cant blame him for retiring considering he's married now and starting to get older.

Chang was fun to watch because he would run around the court chasing down every ball.

They will be missed. Along their peers, only Agasi and Todd Martin are around.

I watched the Sampras ceremony, and I have to say he went out in Pete style. Humble, shy, and very gracious. I started playing tennis in high school and tried to model parts of my game after his. He was an incredible player and it was a joy to watch him play.

He went to Palos Verdes High School, the rival of our high school. He used to whoop our #1 player's tail routinely. :D

don't know why i just burst in chucks after reading that :heh:

I love his serves, god damn powerful. The greatest dual for all time would be agassi and sampras in my view
