WIMBLEDON 2010 -- Discussion Thread

What in God's name is Murray doing on Court 1 tomorrow?! That's mental!

It's an outrage! A Scandal!

 

[batz]

Rochus up a double break in the 3rd 3-0

 

[iriraz]

Djokovic can`t sustain a good level for a long period of time.After 5-0 up in the second set he is suddenly a double break down in the third playing 2 awful service games

 

[Blinkism]

What in God's name is Murray doing on Court 1 tomorrow?! That's mental!

I know!

I mean, he should be playing on the roof of Buckingham Palace to a crowd consisting of all the Queen's subjects and, maybe, some random colonials (eww).

Bah!

 

[norbac]

Lleyton seems to be cruising now, up 4-2 in the third after split sets.

 

[jamesblakefan#1]

Uh oh, Djok down a break early to Olli 4-3. ESPN still showing Roddick blowout, then after that Venus blowout more than likely. :evil: THen ROddick interview, then Venus interview....then maybe 5th set of Rochus-Djokovic. :lol:

Funny how spot on I was with this...ESPN's interviewing Roddick now, Venus' in midst of the blowout, and Djoker's down a break in the 3rd.

 

[JeMar]

I can't believe they're showing the Williams match and all this other fluff instead of the Djokovic/Rochus match.

Don't say I didn't warn ya.

It seriously is, though. The Centre Court crowd would rather see Andy than Soderling!

 

[PSNELKE]

Jesus I need Djokovic outta the Top10...

 

[JeMar]

It's a outrage! A Scandal!

Fixed it for you. I thoughts Brits were supposed to be good grammarians. :razz:

 

[Blinkism]

Olie just rolling right now.

No hope for the Djoker?

 

[Starfury]

Play on CC is suspended for the closing of the roof.

 

[sdont]

It's an outrage! A Scandal!

Obviously they hate Andy and want him to lose.

 

[batz]

We are.

We also make sure we are correct before pointing out perceived grammatical errors in public

Just like the RG organisers and Jo-willly!

 

[Blinkism]

They can put us on Court 1..... but they can't take our freedom!

 

[JeMar]

We are.

I was making fun of another Brit's, Cesc Fabregas, famous solecism from another thread.

 

[hoodjem]

I think if Fed wins, he doesn't get to add 2000 points--he was defending them from last year.

If Nadal wins, then wow! He got zero from last year.

Whooooooooooooooooooooooooosh!

Sorry JeMar - went right over my head - I'd forgot about the bold Cesc's wild flailings

I feel a bit silly now

 

[jamesblakefan#1]

How is Tommy Robredo still top 50? When's the last time he made a run in any tournament?

 

[JeMar]

How is Tommy Robredo still top 50? When's the last time he made a run in any tournament?

QFs of Miami and R16 (I think) at the USO are the only ones that come to mind.

 

[Starfury]

How is Tommy Robredo still top 50? When's the last time he made a run in any tournament?

He's seems to be a very reliable R16 player.

Speaking of which, wth happened to Wawrinka?

 

[jamesblakefan#1]

Another early slam flameout. That seems to be the story of his career. Still never made a slam QF after all these years.

 

[P_Agony]

Novak, please don't lose.

 

[Starfury]

Novak, please don't lose.

Actually, that was the upset I was expecting looking at the draw.

 

[norbac]

Overall a pretty awesome day of tennis at Wimbledon. Can't remember the last time the first day of a Slam was this good.

 

[Sentinel]

Bah!

Congratulations Andy Murray, 2010 Wimbledon Champion! COME ON!

OMG, Blinks, are you okay. ... stolen my sig, have you. ?? :twisted::twisted:

Yup, now with Malakas gone, we need more hands on the Murray deck.

 

[vortex1]

Hilarious how people were already savoring Rafa vs Blake in R2, when James is currently getting schooled.

 

[Stinkdyr]

Blake is still alive!

 

[TomatoSoup]

Blake should retire. He's terribly overrated on these boards.

 

[crocon]

LOL Blake got mad at Pam.

 

[jmverdugo]

What is Blake saying to the ESPN commentator (Pam Shriver?)

 

[zboy2854]

LOL Blake got mad at Pam.

What just happened there? I missed it.

 

[crocon]

Pam was talking during the points. According to Pam, Blake told her, "It's amazing that you played tennis because I can still hear you" or something like that.

 

[zboy2854]

I wonder if he actually heard her ragging on him, or just the fact that she was talking during the point.

 

[niff]

I want to watch Dolgo.

 

[vortex1]

Lol Mugza already in trouble.

 

[Mustard]

Is Murray's body language still awful?

 

[abmk]

baggy lost a set to lacko, but is up a break in the 2nd , 2-1

 

[Blinkism]

Looks like same ol' Muzzer as last year...

excellent :lol:

 

[Fedex]

Hilarious how people were already savoring Rafa vs Blake in R2, when James is currently getting schooled.

Lol Mugza already in trouble.

You're doing a lot of laughing hyena.

 

[Fedex]

COME ON!!! VORTEX.

Laugh your ass off now.

 

[vortex1]

Blah, Muzza got lucky.

 

[Fedex]

Laugh you mother

 

[inthemisosoup]

hmm figured out just now i have ESPNU. i wonder how that happened . . . whatever, it will be helpful this week.

 

[jaggy]

Murray has such a good draw but looks pretty average.

 

[Xenakis]

Blinky, you protest far too much about Murray.

I'm sure a shrink would diagnose some sort of unrequited man-love problem, including unresolved emotional issues around Nadal's losses at the AO and USO. The teenage hate and angst is a form of overcompensation.

Get well soon.

 

[Xenakis]

Muzza's playing better than I thought he would actually, I've got no hope about him winning Wimby any time soon but getting to the semis again might be possible on this form, perhaps.

 

[Fedex]

Murray has such a good draw but looks pretty average.

Agreed. Not looking too great.
