Roddick's career is over. At least competitively.

That loss to Federer crushed his soul.

Larry Stefanki brainwashed Roddick.

Well, now he can go back to Austin and start getting prepped for the big Davis Cup match against Spain next week and get some extra prep on the alleged "illegal surface."

And I disagree with Fed loss ruining his career. I think the change in his style of play towards being more of a grinder has had more to do with his recent failures than anything else.

He's hungover. He's played a similar style since Stefanki took over. And it provided some good results for a while.

I'm glad Chris Evert is calling out the women grunters.. or woo-ers? It's been ridiculous for a while now.

Can't BELIEVE Andy lost.


Serena is garbage. Can't stand her. Venus isn't AS bad, but still irks me.

Roddick is one-trick pony. He has an elite first serve with below-average ground strokes and a horrible feel at the net.

Ryan Harrison is seemingly our best chance for a Top 10 or Top 5 caliber player. I have been extremely impressed every time I've watched him. He has a excellent first serve, an elite second serve, a powerful forehand, a decent backhand, and an excellent feel around the net. He is also one hell of a competitor. He has a Nadal-like temperament. His downfall seems to be his foot-speed and overall explosiveness, which can only be improved so much, and his height, around 6'0, but I really like his chances to become a serious player on tour.

As a matter of fact, I'll call that within the next year, Ryan Harrison will become a Top 20 player, and within the next two years, he will become a Top 10 player.

He will have a chance to win the Australian, US, and Wimbledon over the course of his career.

I'm going to be pissed if Delpo loses to Simon, who is terrible to watch and will have absolutely no chance against Nadal

After the first set I just saw you might need to slow down.

Muller is playing him tough, but he probably needed to win that tiebreak to have any realistic shot at taking the match

I am no longer a Roddick fan. I am tired of the man breaking my heart every year.

9 Fish, Mardy (USA)
40 Querrey, Sam (USA)
47 Isner, John (USA)
69 Sweeting, Ryan (USA)
122 Harrison, Ryan (USA)

Fish laughs at you, and Isner/Querrey are puzzled by you.

Sigh...let me look at the draws to see who I should pull for(other then Djokovic of course).

Mens: Djokovic or Fish...that's my only hope.
Women: Sharapova/Lisicki(Same Qtr)

Damn...I only have 2 players left in each half.
