    Red Sox fan. Almost as tortured as old Dodgers fans.

    This is how bad tennis is viewed in America: USA pre-empted it tonight for WWE and Vince McMahon.

    Actually it was always scheduled to be bumped over the CNBC.

    And Federer's done playing around. He won the second, and it already up a break in the third.

    just wondering about that whole "wait 'til next year" philosophy.

    Andy Roddick to the courtesy phone...Andy Roddick to the courtesy phone...

    It's Mr. Federer. He said something about bringing your 'Depends' to the court as he proceeds to beat you down in the quarters, much to Loopy's dismay.

    Yeah, but Federer wouldn't beat Tiger. Everyone knows that.

    It's unfortunate that some people have to come shit on threads. That is all.

    I am saddened that Mr. Lopez is gone. He's really pretty, plus he has a wonderful accent. . .


    EDIT: I especially wish they would stop shitting on threads when they are ignorant fucktards who think they know what they're talking about, despite their obvious ignorance.

    What happened to Blake, anyway? I missed that match. I thought he would have give Federer a tougher time than I think Roddick will. That sucks he's out, he's a good guy.

    are you really here lecturing us? i mean i understand you're not in the biz and that you're just a fanboy, but really, why should we not laugh at every-damned-thing you post?

    still unemployed?

    Blake has never won a big match in a slam and he never will. Blake's probably more skilled, but Roddick's a better player than he is.

    Agree on both counts. Blake is a guy, good player, played in some memorable matches and has lost most of them. He might be one of those guys who gets a run in a slam late in his career but he is letting his prime waste away with this 5-set losses in the early rounds.

    No reason not to believe Federer won't punish Roddick again.
