w00t for televised tennis

Andy Murray will be a force to be reckoned with

they said Nadal lost an exhibition set earlier, but i doubt it is an indication of anything

i think Federer beat Nadal on clay a few weeks ago, he might have more confidence if they happen to meet in the Open

5/24/2009 2:05:45 PM

ya that was like a week ago in the Madrid Open, Federer took him down in 2 sets

5/24/2009 4:11:37 PM

that would be insane if federer somehow won this tourny

5/26/2009 2:30:25 PM

it would certainly be unexpected. but people seem to forget that federer is damn good on clay. nadal is just far better than ANYONE else.

5/26/2009 2:32:32 PM

I am going to call Federer winning french open and Wimbledon this year

5/26/2009 11:02:59 PM

so what are the odds on anyone besides nadal, 100 to 1?

I think I'll pay more attention to the women's side

5/27/2009 1:39:37 AM

^^wow dont go too far out on a limb

5/27/2009 10:15:17 AM

Well, I mean, it's not like he's ever won the French before.

5/27/2009 10:17:23 AM

well of course

but if not nadal then who? fed

but i agree with him... fed will have to be more patient and play longer points against raf to do it. but if he is going to beat him, it will require a 4 hour match that i think federer will be fine with doing... as this year he does whatever it takes. and that means playing nadals type game and not his own

5/27/2009 10:29:40 AM

<3 sharapova

on tennis channel right now, close match near the end




won the last set 8-6 against Petrova

^^i think it's the exact opposite. nadal's fitness is one of his strongest assets. he almost never seems to get tired. i haven't seen federer play yet at this french open, but the commentators mentioned in a different match that he needs to be more aggressive and go for the kill more quickly when he has the chance. and i believe this is what he did last week when he beat nadal (of course i didn't see this, i'm only relying on the word of the announcers).

5/27/2009 11:19:21 AM

lol at the thought of dweedle

watching this with just his drawers on

postin on TWW with one hand

beating his dick thru the cock flap to sharapova with the other

then just when he's about to bust

they show a Pam Ward close up and he cums to her

and she's seared into his spank bank archives for all eternity

5/27/2009 11:32:19 AM

pam ward is the ultimate rick roll for porn

5/27/2009 11:39:18 AM

sarjoul... yes nadal's fitness is his strongest asset... and in past french open matches between them federer IS very aggressive and does hit very GOOD shots, but because of nadal's quickness and fitness it allows him to get to every single aggressive shot that roger hits thus making Fed play even more aggressive and start to lose points by cracking errors left and right by going for too much. It gets in his head and Nadal just coasts
I know you are listening to commentators but... they are wrong, im right

Federer has to be patient and work VERY VERY VERY hard to beat this clay freak of nature

In Madrid, Nadal had a 4 hour match against Djokovic the day before and that's why Fed took advantage of that, winning in straight sets.

He has to play much more aggressive and more consistent in Paris if he wants to win against Nadal

I'm just posting this so we can all monitor how some of the sexy ones are doing

5/27/2009 2:22:18 PM

Federer in trouble vs. Acasuso

tied a set apiece, 3rd set is 5 games all

5/28/2009 9:42:19 AM

Federer held on, won the match

5/28/2009 10:29:14 AM

5/28/2009 3:05:15 PM

lol if they happen to meet


i think venus's screaming is more gamesmenship than anything else. there should be rules against that bullshit

5/28/2009 10:44:54 PM

^i concur... shes even american and i cant stand her winning due to the screaming

sucks that best two dominant americans out there i cant even cheer for

5/28/2009 11:57:28 PM

^i can't stand watching women's tennis just because of that screaming bullshit. I mean, seriously? sharapova does it too....almost all the women do some form of yelling when they hit the ball. its retarded

5/29/2009 1:59:51 PM

I like it when Sharapova does it because.....well, because she's hot.

5/29/2009 2:24:40 PM

There was one European chick the other morning who sounded more like she was cooing as opposed to grunting. It was actually kinda hot.

5/29/2009 8:03:41 PM

holy shit Monfils point

shit should be in sportscenter top 10 today

Tennis season overlaps with college football, so no, televised tennis can go jump off a cliff for taking up those precious airwaves/channels.

5/30/2009 10:00:18 AM

yea all those USA network football games really take a hit

5/30/2009 10:21:53 AM

Nadal is OUT

5/31/2009 12:00:20 PM

holy shit nadal!!!!!

5/31/2009 12:01:07 PM

Damn yo, dethrwnt!

5/31/2009 12:13:41 PM

holy shit, I saw the headline flash and thought I was seeing things

5/31/2009 2:47:35 PM

WOO HOO NO NADAL!!!

5/31/2009 4:09:10 PM

federer better get really damned focused, if he can win a french that would probably put him over the top for best ever

5/31/2009 8:24:16 PM

ohhhhh geeeeeeeeeez federer going to lose. wowwww

6/1/2009 8:21:52 AM

if Federer doesn't win this French, he probably never will. Nadal was tired and really he had to lose sometime. This was Federer's year. Not saying he can't come back (down 2-0 to Tommy Haas) but he needs to win this French Open.

And lets face it, he is probably running out of chances anyway.

6/1/2009 8:35:37 AM

well 2 sets a piece now

6/1/2009 9:08:04 AM

man, he needs to play much better than this to win this slam

To be honest, it's more along the lines of trying to watch football where the other person in the room wants to check the tennis score and conveniently never turns it back to football. Of course they're probably saying the other person in the room wants to check the football score and conveniently never turns it back to tennis.

6/1/2009 9:12:30 AM

fed rallies and stays alive

6/1/2009 11:01:26 AM

Cirstea is kinda hot

i hope her mom doesn't hear me say it though

6/1/2009 12:28:09 PM

wow ST sucks ass now... when a fucking French Open thread sits at the top for 2-3 days something is wrong

6/1/2009 12:29:39 PM

i mean what else is going on that you would like to see that isn't near the top

6/1/2009 12:30:57 PM

YAWAYAWAYAWAYAWYAW FOOTBALL

6/1/2009 12:33:26 PM

i mean the clay is almost Tennessee orange

shouldn't that be enough?

[Edited on June 1, 2009 at 12:34 PM. Reason : i guess it's more Texas burnt orange actually]

6/1/2009 12:34:14 PM

^^^ I didnt mean so much the threads sucked, but more that ST sucks because there isnt much going on in sports right now that is all that exciting... aka football and college bball

6/1/2009 12:59:42 PM

plz to let roddick beat the annoying frenchman

6/1/2009 1:40:53 PM

wow

great comeback by federer

hope roddick continues to play well

6/1/2009 1:48:56 PM

all I want is for federer to win two more slams and finally get the fucking record, then I can stop going for him every match
