Like Roger best of all, but I am pulling for Rafa versus Djoko. Rafa is playing some sick tennis. Big guts, hitting some big shots. I want to see Nadal win this.
Fed fan foremost but pulling for Nadal in Final

Your welcome! Some Fed fans just want to kill Rafa...actually root for him to lose. Who are you pulling for? Most of my friends think Nole gonna smoke Rafa with ease...

I envision another classic Noledal slam final. I feel bad about your friends, but I see Nadal coming through in four sets or five at the very most.

It will be interesting. Best big match player vs. best player this year. I really can't predict it. But I give Nadal the experience edge. It's too bad we could not get Roger vs Nole in the SF.

Tennis fan, first. Federer fan as well.
Rooting for good tennis. Rooted for Murray. Rooted for Tsonga.
Now rooting for Rafa.
And Kvitova. Two likable lefties.
Really anyone but Sharapova and Djokovic.
Sharapova and Djokovic have a lot in common. Both contrived as can be. Both very unpopular in the lockerroom. Dads look and act a LOT alike.

True, I expect a good match - I expect Djokovic to play out of this world and give Mr. Nadal a run, but there is only one logical conclusion to the match.

Djokovic parents are a little scary looking. Not as chilled out as the Feds and Nads.

Yeah, lots of people saying Djoker is fav. Some of the guys I know are predicting Novak in 3 sets.
My ex-gf a die-hard Fed fan, says she doesn't like it, but she knows Nadal will win somehow. LOL!

Nads has the best forehand out there. But his bh is a little shaky. He kind of hunches over it and pokes it.
Djokovic is more steady. Man, this could be a six hour match!

True. I am also thinking what effect, if any, Nadal's foot injury will have in the match..
He'll need to do a lot of running to chase down Novak's up the line shots, so his foot will be tested big time.

This would create a nice texture at the top of the game...it would really put Djoko on top of the world and set up a super USO...
there is something about Djokovic rubbery movement that puts me off...I havent seen him hit his cc forehand quite like he was doing on the hardcourts...maybe he needs to plant his feet harder to hit that shot. That thing was blowing people away.

Yup, Rafa played great tennis against Andy Curry. Certainly deserves to win. If Noel wins, I won't mind that either -- he's had a great year and that'll seal his number one.

I'm Pulling for a Strong Chair
I'm hoping the chair issues time violation warnings to both real early in the match so we can watch tennis, not stalling.
Once that hurdle is cleared, I'm hoping MTO's over/under are 3 or less. Bathroom breaks should also stay under 3. In that way, Wimby might avoid its first all-nighter final and the Champion's Ball can go off as scheduled on Sunday night.
As to the results, I'm hoping whoever wins earns it in a deep-in-the-fifth "instant classic"! Good luck and good viewing!

Yeah sure, because there were so many bathroom breaks and MTOs during USO 2010 final (rolleyes)

Djokovic's parents look so much younger than Fedal's.

Guess the stalling reference and perhaps the MTO reference struck a nerve...it was all meant with tongue in cheek. You do have to admit these two players are the slowest on the tour, so we will see excessive toweling, butt excavating and ball dribbling that may drag into the twilight. Thank God they have lights on Centre Court.

Wow. I am actually feeling a little sad for Rafa right now. I've never seen him get throttled on this big a stage...
