Edinboro, JustinTV won't work for me when I have something like PeerGuardian running. Turn off your firewall, or any other such blocking thing you may have
running for a moment, then refresh the link and see if you can see it then.

It was a well-fought match, E - I wish you could've watched it. Keep going back to Justin.tv, and see if there's ANYthing you can view there. I've
watched over half the online tennis matches I've watched at various channels there, so being able to view there is imperative to your Elena fix.

And now!! It's time for the...
"OT Tennis Challenge" game!!
For eight preeminent tournaments held during the year (the four Slams, and four 'Premier' events - I'll tell you more about this in another, soon-to-be-made post), you'll select a team of 8 Players. However many points those players earn - YOU earn!! He / She with the most points at the end of it all shall be declared the Winner!!
How to play: For the Men, and / or Women (you can choose to play either, or both), select a team of 8 Players (so if you play both games, you'll pick 8 men, and 8 women, for a total of 16 players): - 5 seeded players, one each from groups A-E below. - 3 unseeded players, from the respective draws (links for the draws posted below each A-E group). That's it!! You've got until Sunday afternoon US time to choose your players, and can change your mind on any player you've selected up until the beginning of their first round match. If a player you've selected withdraws from a tournament, you can choose any other player at the same level who has not yet played their first match. Good luck - and I hope that those of us who wish to play in this friendly game have fun with it!!

Serena and Venus already stated they aren't retiring until the next Olympics. Which just so HAPPENS to be hosted at their home court....WIMBLEDON. So I guess we'll have to wait 3 1/2 years and see for ourselves. I love how you are talking trash about Serena never winning a medal in the Olympics as a single (but she has twice in gold for doubles yw) yet Elena has yet to win ANY grand slam EVER. Sorry, I'm not a perfect encyclopedia like you. I watch tennis for leisure viewing, not so I can have 21381208 useless facts memorized to spew out during pointless arguments. Also, I misread your sentence and I thought you said Safina whooped Serena, so chill out sweetie. I was referring to the year-end champ. where she got double owned by the Williams and then the US open where she got her ass handed to her. Ever think why this thread is never active is because you chase everyone away? You a humorless hag. Half the time I'm being sarcastic and you rebuttal as if I'm serious with these pissy posts. Lighten up and maybe after this Grand Slam...the posters might stick around.

Just got back from the Final day of AO Qualifying! So many players where practicing. I cant wait to Monday and Tuesday i will be at AO and will get too see
Jelena and Andy. I got a feeling Elena will win AO 2009 she is in such good form. I also got Dementieva's Autograph today she must have just arrived not
long before.

Damn, this has turned from being a steamrolling... into a riveting match!! From Nalbandian serving for the match at
6-3, 5-3... to on serve in the 3rd!! Great stuff, this, with mucho drama!!
SChick, do you have tickets for the Qtrs., Semis, Final? |

Actually, the thing which nobody cares about would be an ignorant, < 125 post troll. Those of us who enjoy
tennis shall continue to bump / post in this thread as often as we like, fucktard.
For those here in the thread who wish to no longer see the posts of the 'tards... here's an example I've used in the past; that '-' in the top right corner of a post is our friend: BEFORE:
AFTER:
GOODBYE, 122-post kiddiot fuckwit!! Edinboro, I knew you'd be droolin' over that autograph SChick got today!!
Fatigue caught up with Jarkko just after I made that last post; Nalby wins 6-2 in the 3rd. del Potro also won in Auckland today, and heads to the AO with some momentum. ETA a post-match pic of them with an Aussie tennis legend...

And thanks for doing this, Atypical Male. It looks like lots of fun, but choosing the 8 people was SO hard!!!

Serena isnt winning the AO, plain and simple. Serenas fitness is way off par as evident in her perfomance in the past week. Venus however scares me..

At least Serena has an excellent second serve. :P
Besides, Serena is one of those few people who manages to dominate even on off-days. Remember the US Open? She rolled through that so randomly. |
