I'm sorry I'm very bitter about my tennis. The ONLY way I'm going to watch this Wimbledon again is if Andy wins, and that obviously will be on replay. TV is off. I'm not even watching the news b/c I don't want to see any Wimbledon report. Argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I like Marion at lot. She made the final (2007?) and lost to Venus. It would be great if she were to win it all.

I'm done! To make myself feel better, I'm going to catch up with all the work I've been neglecting and make money. I'm not going to waste my emotions grieving for these millionaires. I'm so disgusted right now.

It's buried in this thread. It was posted at the time the cast attended the Canada Film Festival or something to that effect.

Watched it so much I think I know every single second of the whole show. Revisited it last night as well:)

This is adorable

Paltrow, in Ralph Lauren, was looking insanely hot. Her most meaningful piece of jewelry? "Probably my engagement ring," said the actress, who's married to Coldplay musician Chris Martin. Well, for a novice, our boy did great. That engagement ring is still stunning 10 yrs later.

How do you like them apples:laugh3: That's your wrong line call twitter picture guy.:laugh3:

I thought Whistler might be a pet. Nice of her. Jake is so private.

Rafa is always vulnerable during the early rounds on grass. He's had a couple of 5 setters against big hitters, losing some and winning some. He's not going to talk about any injuries he might or might not have. Very disappointing, but now I'm free to support Andy. He better assert himself and get it done this year. Rafa did the impossible by winning 3 Masters Series and a GS after a 7 months lay-off. He has nothing to hang his head about.

I've been stuck on this for a couple of weeks now [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1YXKWOTGskY]Laura Marling - Rambling Man Official Video - YouTube[/ame]

Hopefully Tomas Berdych can make things interesting in the Novak half of the draw. After all, he's shown in the past that he's capable of playing on the grass. That Wimbledon couldn't use their internal system to seed Rafa 4th is mind-boggling. All that said, I'm relieved that Rafa is in the opposite side of the draw. I like his chances against Roger and Andy.

Thank you, guys!

Wimbledon is almost upon us. Roger, Rafa, and Andy in the same half with Roger and Rafa set to meet in the Quarters should they both advance. Novak has a cake walk to the final in the other half.

In my household, we watched and were thrilled with the outcome.

Hint! Those gorgeous kids didn't fall from the sky:D

Congrats to Justin! I remember him breaking out at the British Open 1998 as a teenager. His dad would be proud of him. Well done, Justin!

TYVM. He's such a music nerd and he's already salivating over his courses load :laugh3: The school is such a perfect match for him. I'm less worried now. Phew!

Well, when Rafa came on the scene, Roger was in his prime and had a stranglehold on the ATP Tour, winning every important tournament out there. Rafa seemed to be an unlikely challenger, even after he defeated Roger in the Miami 2004 QF. Everyone thought it was a fluke. It's amazing how he actually stepped up to challenge Roger when no one else could. Without Rafa, Roger could have at least 25 Grand Slam titles to his name.

:lol: It wouldn't be the same if he didn't take a bite out of the trophy. :lol: He did it when he won his 1st French Open title in 2005 and kept it up ever since for good luck I guess.

In tennis haven today! Opening a bottle of champagne for the occasion. Rafael Nadal has 12 Grand Slams, only 5 behind Federer. Who'd have thunk!

Rafael Nadal wins the French Open for a record eighth time By Shane Bacon | Busted Racquet Rafael Nadal is now in a class of his own in tennis history after winning his eighth French Open title on Sunday at Roland Garros, becoming the only man in tennis history to win the same Grand Slam eight times. Nadal took out fellow Spaniard David Ferrer 6-3, 6-2, 6-3 in what can only be considered a victory lap of sorts for the now 12-time Grand Slam champion. Face it, the French Open finals was an epic five-set match that pitted the top two tennis players in the world against each other in Nadal and Novak Djokovic, the one problem being that the winner still had one more ceremonial match to play before he could accept the trophy. This was it, and it was everything that you'd expect from a man that has made his living beating professionals on clay. Nadal is now an astonishing 59-1 at the French Open, winning eight of the last nine championships in Paris and doing it in a style that says he isn't going anywhere soon. Ferrer was a formidable opponent in the sense that games lasted longer than one might expect, but it was just too much power from Nadal on this surface for a man that was making his first appearance in a Grand Slam final. Nadal hit 35 winners to his 25 unforced errors, a stat almost mirrored by Ferrer who had 22 winners to his 35 unforced. Nadal is now third all time in Grand Slam wins, tying Roy Emerson and sitting just two behind Pete Sampras and five behind the great Roger Federer. His play at this event has been incredible over the years, but his return to the tennis scene this season has been a surprise even to experts who have watched him play over the years. Injuries kept him out of the 2012 U.S. Open and this year's Australian Open, and some where worried he'd never come back full strength. He did, and his eighth French title is a pretty good reward for a return for one of the greatest tennis players in the history of the game.
