    Speak English to me Tony! I thought this country spawned the fuckin' language and so far nobody seems to speak it.

    Hating on the Swiss is the English version of east coast bias.

    He had been heroic, he had been human, he had given all he had.


    I said the same thing at my Tamagotchi's funeral.

    chickendinner tipped A-Rod to reach the final, which if you bet with Paddy Power as we advised would have earned you a £50 return on a £5 E/W stake, although it could have been £145 if he hadn't tired at the end.


    I fuckin' hate the Bridge column.

    Wait. Neil Everett tipped A-Rod? I'm confused.

    I was hoping John McEnroe would read from the Freak Book, but I have to agree with the Sports Guy; a broadcast free of hyperbole, inane tie-ins and a 3 man booth is fantastic.

    Maybe it's because I've always had teams or players that came up short against them, but I have a natural reaction against "Dominant" athletes: MJ, Federer, Tiger etc.


    I wanted Roddick to win this one.

    I wouldn't say you can "always" pull for Andy... he's had his share of petulant moments with chair umpires.


    But, I think he's quite similar to Andre Agassi, who also had his large share of petulant moments. Both guys were pretty gracious in defeat, were always grateful to be able to play tennis at a high level, and seemed very likeable off the court.


    But I agree with you dignified Roddick was today. Meeting Triumph and Disaster and treating both imposters the same.

    Oh Andy

    Well you came

    And you played without breaking

    But they sent you away

    Oh Andy

    Well you served

    And stopped Roger for some time

    And we praise you today

    Oh Andy

    Anyone else feel like punch Federering in the mouth with that "15" jacket after the match? What an douchebag move.

    @Spectacular Sam: Yes. Also all those advertisers that had clearly prepared ads in advance and run them seconds after cutting away from Andy on the verge of tears deserved a racket in the nads. Fuckers.
