Your level of fanboyism towards me is not merely pathetic, but quite weird.

Is anyone going to watch Fed-Nadal?

As ridiculous as the question is, and as big of a Fedtard as I am, watching three old guys trash the field has been really lame.

i remember telling my buddies in like 2012 that we needed to plan a trip to the us open either that year or the next year bc federer and nadal wouldn’t be elite for much longer and we wanted to see the greats of the game in their prime at a slam.

I was thinking just that recently. I mean how historically great are these guys that even these talented youngins can't pull of an upset. Especially Federer. I find that kind of ridiculous

I was worried about this in 2010 and made the trek to New York to see them both.

I have an email or fb post or tweet (I forget) from like 2013 boldly claiming that Federer "was done and done".

An arguably premature proclamation, I will have to acknowledge.

So who's gonna win? Let's go on record.

MV says: Rafa in 5.

And for the record, going on record with a prediction is a prerequisite to any future smack-talking rights.

Just saying. Awfully quiet in here right now. And tends to gets awfully awfully noisy after significant smug wins.

I thought it was funny how one of the journalists asked Nadal in his last post-match press conference how he has improved in recent years and Nadal was like "What are you talking about? I haven't improved at all. I'm forced to adjust my game and play more aggressively because I can't move like I used to."

Coverage should go by much quicker today with just two ladies games

Halep and Svitolina are really slugging it out right now. These are some intense rallies!

Svitolina is gonna need to figure out how to break a Halep service game rather soon or this match will spiral out

That little Romanian is on a mission it looks like. It’s impressive how well Simona works the baseline. I’m just wanting Halep to hurry up and win it so we can watch Serena.
