I like the way Mary described Rafa: predatory

I don't disagree that Rafa plays aggressive on clay. He cracks winners. It's just on shot 14 of the rally after the other guy is gassed from running around and getting back balls that spin up to his head.

I love Rafa's sis. I'm not really into Xisca's poodle hair, but I understand why people consider her a bit of an exotic beauty.

One drawback when he wins RG again is that "La Undecima" doesn't sound nearly as cools as "La Decima".

Rest or practice, he's got time for either now.

That’s basically coach-speak to motivate himself since no one is really a threat right now.

Wish I could do a poll on here. In which clay tourney will Rafa lose a set? I’ll go with Madrid.

You guys are good for balancing out the Fedtards.

I think Rafa will semi-tank a match in Rome or Madrid.

I just realized that the guy with the best shot of beating Nadal in a best-of-3 match hasn’t stepped foot on a clay court yet, but he just confirmed that he’s playing Madrid, Rome, and RG.

I seem to remember a pretty lengthy discussion last year where I favored said guy’s chances vs. Rafa compared to Thiem. Now that his backhand has improved a bit, I hope we get to see that matchup.

There a long thread on the poliboard and the OP updates the subject every once in a while to let you know what page some of the sorta current stuff is on.

Just so you can see how they do it.
