Running Aussie Open Thread...

Roddick broken again. Oh my.

 

There is nothing more fascinating as a sports fan than to be present for pure greatness, greatness that spans any era of all time -- and to know you are watching it when you are watching it.

Gretzky. Tiger. Jordan.

That's it, in my lifetime.

Federer is in that group.

 

I agree, though I don't tend to watch a lot of tennis.

 

Kobayashi.

 

absolutely. the thing is, roddick was playing well leading up to this match. it's not like we're talking about slumping roddick right now. and this has just been pure annihilation. he's making unbelievable shots from every angle, dominating roddick even when roddick's serving. it's amazing what we're watching right now. one of the best players in the world is quite simply being taken apart like it's child's play.

 

Well, well, well. Andy found the serve button. Gonna need a lot more of that.

 

I don't think Andy's playing badly right now even. It's just that Roger's that much better than Andy. He's that much better than everybody, except Nadal (and then only on clay).

 

Remember, Adrian said that to Rocky before the Drago fight. And what happened there? Hmmm? (sorry about all the Rocky references)

 

Did I just read that winners graphic right? Was that 38-10 Federer? Holy shit.

 

well roddick needs to start swinging for the knockout because he can't win on points.

 

USA! USA! USA!

Dammit, I sound like a shill for the White House.
