I am watching it right now. Just got watching the pros challenge thing. Did anyone think that they people who were feeding the balls were going like super fast? I mean if the pros are having trouble catching up to the feeds I think they might be going to fast.

I am drug free, maybe roger had some go at those medicinals ?? Roger looked like he had no clue where the ball was going and no control on his backhand, his topspin shots were missing the mark by 2-3 feet. Scoville Jenkins, here is your chance, this is the best chance you will have to beat roger and claim your US open 1st round victory.;)

You don't need to be in shapre to sing, but Sean Kingston is annoying as hell anyway.

If that's Rob Thomas' real forehand, he needs to fine a better coach to give his money to. ;)

Roger and Rafa looked hopeless in their target hitting compared to Serena and Dani Hantuchokova. It was just sad...

Rafa actually looked awsome compared to federer. Rafa was actually taking normal swings at the ball and hitting the targets in the center square with his big topspin. I had no idea he was so accurate with his shots.;)

Who the heck are the Jonas Brothers? Is this from some Disney Channel show? I know these are geared toward teens and pre-teens, but this music is horrible.

Ha! You got to remember that this show is dedicated to the kids, and apparently, kids these days like to listen to people rant about how beautiful a girl is, or how someone's lip gloss is destructive.

The inventors of the internet must be sad that their invention is being used for such drivel. Like Fed or Rafa cared one bit about what was going on - they appeared for the sake of Ashe's memory.

If anyone wants to have a Skills Challenge, with MONEY involved, I'm sure their attention level will be there.

Good luck to Scoville. My suggestion: get as many of the official towels as you can during the match.

Not only that, but they forgot that Rafa is left handed, and fed his balls from the wrong side each time. You could tell he was uncomfortable with the feeds, and that is why, when they were doing 'backhands' he just smacked a few forehands to catch up with the feed.

Interesting how the girls kicked the guys' butts though. Didn't see that coming.

Yeah I was blown away by the ball feeders lack of experience. I mean yeah they could feed balls fast but...... they could have slowed it down a bit. Not that hard to do. Yeah they did feed his from the wrong side. His backhand should have been fed with the person feeding everyone else's forehand. Yeah the girls did do well.

lolz, I was thinkin' the same thing. I was worried he'd collapse of a heart attack during that song. It was a long song.

Overall, music was horrible. WTF is saun kingston? who the f are the jonas brothers? Some hanson wannabe? Both were atrocious.

And finally, Rfed and Rnad didn't do well in that skills challenge b/c i think
1. ) they didn't give a hoot.
2. ) whoever was feeding them the ball looked like they had a plane to catch. Absolute Rapidfire. LOLOLOLOL!.

Yeah dude, I was scared for the guy. He was all out of breath and stuff. Yep the music was horrible. I just put it on mute when the music was on. Yeah both Rafa and Fed could have cared less about the whole skills thing. I mentioned the feeding thing in my first post. It was horrible. It was like they said I am going to try to feed 100 balls in 30 seconds. LOL!
