i'm not sure how many people watch tennis or care about it, but the Open starts today with qualifying rounds at the USTA today. the main draw (what is seen on tv) starts next monday on the 29th, and that's when my run as a ballperson this year starts too.
The Open is FREE this week. i can't guarantee the tennis action is top notch, but it's a good way to hang out, enjoy the nice weather and pay for really really expensive charco- i mean burgers.
anyway, just wanted to give you guys the headsup! |

not sure how nadal will do because i did his second round match last year where roddick just destroyed him. but another year, hopefully better results. nadal just needs to work on his manners |

I doubt Nadal will make it to the finale....he sucks on hard...well doesnt suck but does way better on clay and grass.
I say its going to be another Roddick v Federer match this year, though i do wish Agassi would make and beat Federer so he can retire beating the world's best player and at his favorite slam.

I hope so..especially she is now number 1...or Davenport.
And i have also been liking Alicia Molik a lot lately over the past year....though her chances arent so good. |

I'd say pretty good....i went to dinner with her last week and then for a walk through Central Park after she won the New Haven match...and she told me she is looking for a really level headed type of guy that loves trance music.....so it;s a good thing you told me you are interested because now i have someone to offer her....i will PM you with her number tonight:p |

no intermilan's talking about my getting her number since i'll probably have best chance of getting close to her :wtf:
anyway, not much of a rivalry if roddick keeps getting his ass pounded by federer on a regular basis |
