The Good - Lleyton HewittAfter years of growing up and feeling more patriotic disliking Lleyton Hewitt rather than supporting him, it is with great pleasure I finally put him under the heading of "The Good".
Over this past month Hewitt has shown his tactical nous, his strong opinions and his great tennis brain are finally paying dividends...as a special comments man.
Hewitt has added a great insight into the mentality of the current day tennis player, as opposed to the old school Jim Courier and his fellow colleagues.
Although still very much learning the caper, Hewitt has shown throughout the Hopman Cup and the Australian Open that a career in the tennis media should be a certainty once his agonising tennis career ends.
The Bad - Kevin MuscatMelbourne Victory skipper Kevin Muscat's horror weekend tackle should be his last A-League act, after the match review panel deemed it worthy of at least a six-match ban.
The tackle left Melbourne Heart winger Adrian Zahra with partial tears in several knee ligaments, wiping him out for the rest of Heart's inaugural A-League season.
Muscat's fate will be decided by a disciplinary committee hearing in Sydney on Thursday night.
The panel met on Monday and declared the tackle which ended Zahra's season an act of serious foul play.
They believed it warranted at least an extra five-match sanction, on top of the mandatory one-game ban for a red card offence.
Muscat is a passionate and loyal Melbourne Victory player, but what he did not only hurt his club, it hurt the image of football in Australia and most importantly his already tarnished image.
The...Bigots - Richard Keys and Andy GrayBritish broadcasters have been caught in a sexism scandal after making comments about a female assistant referee during the Premier League clash between Wolverhampton and Liverpool.
Sky Sports commentator Richard Keys and special comments man Andy Gray made the "unacceptable remarks" about Sian Massey after believing their microphones had been turned off.
The pair told of their surprise that Massey had been appointed to the match, and blasted her knowledge of the game.
Keys said, "Somebody better get down there and explain offside to her",
Gray replied, "Can you believe that? A female linesman. Women don't know the offside rule",
Keys then replied, "Course they don't. I can guarantee you there will be a big one today. Kenny [Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish] will go potty. This isn't the first time, is it? Didn't we have one before?".
The pair have since sent out a statement expressing their regret and have apologised for the comments, but is that really enough considering the highly sensitive atmosphere we live in at the moment?
