"their other 3 meetings were at Wimbledon where Roger is ahead 2-1"

The only win for Nadal in Wimbeldon was the 2008 final with the best tennis match I have ever seen. 5 sets that lasted almost 5 hours when both players were at their peak. I see Federer as the greatest ever, and believe he has the ability for at least one more grand slam title, but if you consider Nadal to be a candidate for the greatest player, that is the match to establish your case.

"There's even one I remember him hitting a between the legs lob which was absolutely sick. I can't seem to find it right now on YT though"

I believe you refer to the semi final of the 2009 US Open. That point against Djokovic also led to a match point: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DXB4MApF4Lo

This is the second time Nadal was out for a long time due to injury and came back very strong and dominating. I fear that Nadal is in top form and plays like a lion because he and his staff know that he is there on a very limited time and he should maximize it while he can. I would not be surprised if he retires before the age of 30.
