That was some intense s***. Federer's a beast.

 

So I ask you all...which happens first?

 

1) Federer wins French Open

2) Nadal wins Wimbledon

3) Federer retires

 

I think #1 happens first. Federer on clay > Nadal on grass (despite today).

I watched it this morning. I thought Nadal had it in the bag at some points.

yeah i agree with number 1 too ..... federer was unbeleivable in the 5th set, he was down 2 break point twice and came back twice to hold and after the second hold he took off and never looked back

[redsoxrules]

so its time for the last GS of the year US open

 

federer looking to win again and cant see anyone stopping him

hard court is nadal worst surface so i cant see him going far into this one

[redsoxrules]

nadal dosent reach the quarters ( no surprise)

 

federer beats roddick again , although i kinda feel bad for roddick as he played a pretty good match until the third set , but federer is just amazing

[yankees228]

Federer's ability to stave off set points on and off serve is bordering on ridiculous.

 

EDIT: Federer plays a near-flawless tiebreaker in the second set, and goes up 2-0.

[redsoxrules]

over, fed wins again

 

12 GS and counting

[redsoxrules]

Sampras VS federer

I wonder if federer will take it easy on pete or kick the s*** out of him

[schillingouttheks]

Even if Sampras was in his prime, I still think Federer would beat him.

I saw it...crazy man.

[VandaleIndustries]

This makes my tennis pants go crazy....

 

That's all I've got.... Tennis is a great game, lots of fun to play, but I can't really watch the mens games. WOMEN, on the other hand, I have no problem with watching! Australian open finals were a dream come true!

[schillingouttheks]

You just like the women's tennis because of the sounds that they make.

Well, it certainly doesn't HURT anything... Maybe I'm just weird, but I've always preferred looking at women than men... Oh wait, weird wasn't the word I was looking for, HETERO, yes hetero is the word I'm looking for.

[redsoxrules]

Roger gets another chance at the French Open , but he will have to beat Nadal who has never lost at this even and has streamrolled everybody he played on route to this final.

I'm hoping fed gets it done cause his time is running out to win this event

[redsoxrules]

WOW fed got crushed 6-1 6-3 6-0

[a700hitter]

Sissy sport.

[yeszir]

Sissy sport.

 

Have you ever had a 140+ MPH serve coming at you?

[a700hitter]

Have you ever had a 140+ MPH serve coming at you?

No, but if I had a 140 mph serve coming at me, it wouldn't matter if the crowd was hooting and hollering. I have very little regard (for various reasons) about any sports other than Baseball and American Football, and football is a distant second to baseball. It is just my preference. I hope I didn't piss you off. I wouldn't want to risk losing a valuable worldwide restaurant reference source.

[redsoxrules]

LOL @ Djokovic for getting his ass kicked in the 2nd round at wimby.

thats what happens when you trash talk to much , maybe that will shut his mouth for a while

[redsoxrules]

here we go , federer going for his 6th wimby title in a row VS nadal. should be a great match

 

I'm rooting for fed in this one

[VA Sox Fan]

Roger down 6-4 6-4 7-6, 4th set tied 2-2 right now. GO NADAL!!

[Soxfan1]

Here we go R-Fed.

[YanksHater213]

stupid rain nonsense

[VA Sox Fan]

stupid rain nonsense

 

 

Really, what a pain. Come on Rafa!

[YanksHater213]

wow

 

i was pulling for roger, but that was the 2nd best match i've ever watched in my life

[schillingouttheks]

Unreal. Highly entertaining. It took everything Nadal had and then some to beat Roger. Congrats to Nadal! I thought for sure I would have seen Federer beat Nadal on clay before I saw Nadal beat Federer on grass.
