2009 Wimbledon

it is day two of the championships. in about a fortnight roger federer will make history, again. it is very unfortunate nadal had to withdraw. can't say too surprised though, i've always thought he would wear himself out eventually. hopefully for him he comes back somewhat the same but who knows, knees are serious business. anyhow, although i think roger will win, i actually want andy murray to get his first major there.

on the ladies' side, venus or serena will take this. venus is the greatest grass court player of her generation and serena is arguably the best player in the world, don't see anyone really challenging them if they play their game. safina should win a major but she won't win it on grass nor do i think she will make it far during this tournament.

oh wimbledon! my favorite sporting event of the year

Then Swamper and his entourage of 30, who were all wearing TA monogramed Rolexes, left the room and flew to Hawaii for a few hours because Del wanted fresh coconut.

To his defense, Trump didn't even really look like a bum.

I'm glad Nadal had to pull out, Roger has a better chance to win

As for the ladies, I hope Venus beats Serena in the final.

As much as I'd love to hate him for being so good, I really really like Roger Federer. Guy seems a class act, and there's literally nothing in tennis he can't do.

Aye, I didn't care for him too much in the beginning, probably due to the fact that he's just so damn superior (like you said). But he seems like such a great guy that I can't but like him

no nadal, it has to be the year of murray. He won't have a better chance to win than this.

I don't know about Murray winning this year, too much pressure. It's like he is "expected" to win this year because Nadal is out.

Has a chance though.

Well, grass is not exactly his favorite surface to play on.
Good for him that he's gonna retire after this year.. but sad for me
