I know most think Daniela is too skinny, but she could give me a mustache ride anytime.

Kohlschreiber and Isner are dead even in the third.

And people thought Isner was actually a legitimate threat.

the US Open schedulers frick him over so hard. he's an american, and they'd rather put Federer against some schmuck in prime time. kinda bullshite. not sure if that's ESPN, CBS or what, but it would have been such a better match with the crowd backing him under the lights.

don't disagree that he should have been on a bigger stage, maybe they thought he'd walk over the guy he ended up losing to. i've never heard of that dude. Isner should have won...

Isner should have won either way. Not being in prime time is no excuse.

He'll never be anything more than a serve bot. His serve is quite possibly the best in the game, but he's not the next great American tennis player. We'll have to wait a little while longer.

Smyczek just lost a heartbreak hotel to Granollers, 7-5 in the fifth. My favorite matchup is young American stud v. tour journeyman. What gives? Usually, Granollers d. Smyczek and Lopez d. Klahn is what happens.

James Blake is doing a nice job as a color guy (pun not intended).

Are the 2 matches on right now only on Tennis Chanel which I don't have?

Not on any ESPN or ESPN3 that I can tell, not on the US Open channel either.

Yes. Good questions, hog. This is a weird session that ESPN 2 didn't want to take because they show baseball, but I'm not sure why CBS didn't claim it and put it on the Sports Channel. Anyway, I think it is Tennis Channel's one non-doubles session.

ESPN generally does a great job with the US Open and Wimbledon (tonight being the exception). Australia is at weird times, I have no opinion. They absolutely crap the bed with the French Open and have no idea when to take control of their rights they purchased, give them over to Tennis Channel, or what.

I also have no idea the rhyme or reason of when the the US Open website gives streams. It seems to be when ESPN has coverage, which is odd, because you can just get ESPN3. It might be for the international crowd.

Yeah I mean Li Na is kicking Jankovic's arse so no biggie there for now.

But wanting to watch the Radwanska match and just using firstrow.

ETA: Radwanska is a making a furious 2nd set comeback.

#24 Makarova defeats #3 Radwanska 6-4 6-4.

What Li Na just did to Jankovic was pure no lube rape.

6-3 6-0.

probably because of his draw, i'd imagine.

women's side needs some more stars. these matches today just have nobody.
