Soderling sucks!!!

I really wanted him to win this tournament . Although my first choice was Safin. But Safin sucks too!!!!

c) Someone on MTF, on Sod-Nole thread: that cracked me up for some reason. Then I tried to format this entry and hit "ctrl+b" and got taken to a google search with keywords "Soderling sucks". That cracked me up even more.

Yes, my life is a glum, cheerless place.

Well, that was a pretty good day, tennis-wise. A great day, actually - all the matches exactly in the way I wanted. First Misha beat Lleyton in an awesome 3-setter (funny how long it's been since Misha was any good at all - two years almost?). It's great to see him playing well, if only for a short while - he's truly spectacular when on song.

Nole strategically kicked Sod's behind, nice and smooth, doing all the right things.

Woodshed, meet Rafael Nadal. Rafael Nadal, this is woodshed, please feel at home. Marin was undoubtedly on fire, and I think that Nadal's hopeless moonballing made him look even better than he truly was. Rafa has this effect on hard hitters sometimes.

And Jo took care of Monfils in the most efficient manner. So tomorrow I have two finals where I honestly don't care who wins: of course, I'm pulling slightly for Nole and Misha (cause it's no fun otherwise), but won't be bothered in the slightest if either didn't win. Good times.

And because I'm in continious awe of Jo's magnificient hair, here we go:

Okay, so Jo will have to grow his hair just a little more to compete, but still... bravo.

Thanks to soliloquy88 who brings teh funneh

Fed, if you're planning on ever acquiring a sibling to Charlene and whatshername, you better not do that again. I'm serious.

And US open day 6 recap is here for anyone who's interested.

This is the guy that the entire tennis world is scratching their heads over: Jesse Witton, 26, american semi-pro, who prior to this US Open, hasn't won a single ATP main draw match, but so far, beat Andreev and Maximo Gonzalez. All the commentators are full of wtf. Where the hell did he come from and more importantly, how did he do that? He plays Djokovic next, so hopefully, some questions will be cleared up.

... а в Воронеже поставили памятник коню

Взято отсюда.

Кто-нибудь может мне объяснить, почему у него рельс в зубах?

Three, actually.

Franesca Schiavone is up there with Tsonga in the expressivenenss department: no one, but no one has a winning smile like hers:



Glitch in the matrix?



And here's Tommy Haas (see below) starring in what probably would be the most adult content ever posted on this lj.

I know, I've been slacking off on lj lately, and for no good reason, too. I have some pretty, pretty photos to show you later, I promise. Now though, I have a couple of shots that are just beyond words. Sort of like my previous post, but in a funny way, instead of a horrifying way.

( over here )I don't honestly know what's better: the "racquet over crotch" position or stiletto heels with toes pointing inward.

If I were Dinara, I'd sue for defamation.

Also, there are a couple of particular portraits drom the last clay season under the cut. Not for the faint of heart - and I mean it.

( prepare to be scarred for life ) 
Now, if you didn't want to claw your eyes raw, you're stronger person than I. To forget those horrors, I'd strongly recommend to go and see Nole's Speed Lessons

My particular favourite is "The return"

Hey Bamby, in case you didn't notice, it's not clay out there anymore. And being down 5-7 2-5 0-40 to Serra is not fucking acceptable.
