Amelie at night? Dellacqua in the 4R would be very sad.
Go Justine. Go Simon. Go CHAT. Go KOLYA. Go Crazy Vesnina. Go IVOOOOOOO.

Hottest match: Wuss v Andreev That and Hsieh v Caravane are the matches I most want to actually watch. Vesnina is about a thousand times better looking than Shriek, yes? People who are attracted to women, back me up here. Hey, Chat! You're in form! You just won a title! BEAT RODDICK INTO THE GROUND FOR ME PLEASE. I can't conceptualise Demented's inevitable loss to Peer as an upset at all. How is she still ranked above her?

Because Peer also blows.
Vesnina > Maria. A lot of players > Maria Moneypants. I made a list before.

Vesnina has a weird face that makes her look thick, but still.

Shitty schedule. I'm tired of Jankovic and Henin. Both are playing like crap. And then there's Nudd-Ahl (FFWD time), another Mauresmo horror show and Roddick (can't even be bothered to tape).
I hope ES switches to other courts.

Vesnina is about a thousand times better looking than Shriek, yes? People who are attracted to women, back me up here. Vesnina's well built and athletic, and voluptuous at the same time. One of the few players on the Tour who won't make you cringe if you try to picture how she looks naked. Which is what I'm doing right now. Maria - bad skin, no lips, no b00bs, we all know that. But her figure is unique. When I saw her playing Davenport, I thought she looked radiant. And hawt. I find it odder when people say that Ivanovic is sexy - I mean, she's built like Kaia Kanepi. I can't conceptualise Demented's inevitable loss to Peer as an upset at all. How is she still ranked above her? Peer is the low rent version of Dementieva. Same one-dimensional aimless grinding, only Dementieva still does it better. She's overrated.

Ree vs Azza could be fun, but I still expect a blowout. Jankovic said she feels "strangely tired", so she logically decided that the best cure would be to play doubles. I think La Razz beats her tonight.

Ree vs Azza could be fun, but I still expect a blowout. I haven't even considered the possibility of Vika winning that. Same if Nicole gets to play the Wrestler in the next round.

I find it odder when people say that Ivanovic is sexy - I mean, she's built like Kaia Kanepi. I'm not sure how Kaia is built, but there's not much wrong with Ana's figure. She's trimmed down a lot. With Maria it's all about the attitude. Sure, there are a million things wrong with her looks, starting with her gigantic shoulders that I doubt many men would deem sexy, but she sure knows how to flaunt what she's got. It looks like Eurosport is going to show Nikki. A bit weird.

Maria's only positives are that she's blonde, tall and has nice legs. And that she plays the perfect sport to show those attributes. And she can look quite good when she's heavily made up, which puts her with 2/3 of the female sex.
Ana's figure is improving as she's getting past that dumpy phase when you lose weight pretty quickly. I hated that. Otherwise, I don't know. I swear she looks like a completely different person in every off-court pic I see of her.

Kolya dominating.
Gicquel says Hawkeye is wrong and fixed by the CHEATER! What a HATER! Just lose like everyone before the SF to the bald midget.

6-3 Kolya!
Just a couple hours away from setting up the true final... Kolya vs Karlovic!

Announcers on a 2 game rant now on how Kolya is boring.
Winning is not boring!

Sure, there are a million things wrong with her looks, starting with her gigantic shoulders that I doubt many men would deem sexy, but she sure knows how to flaunt what she's got. This, I think, is right on the money. Heidi Klum was tarted up on "Runway" last week and she was the spitting image of Sharapova. Maria sasses around like a model and bats her eyes and...she's not pretty, far from it, but she has attitude and charisma. As for me, I don't think models are attractive, female or male, so I don't understand human sexuality in general. Good thing I reproduce via spore.

Maria has what her people tell her to have. Comparing Heidi to her is blasphemy!
Kolya exudes confidence. He's the MAN. And he doesn't care if peons don't realize it. He's confident in himself.

Good start for Jank. No signs of fatigue or injury, yet.
Eurosport showed Hsieh's set point. I thought she'd be a counterpuncher, but she smacks the ball pretty hard.

Post by DBBN on Jan 17, 2008 21:37:50 GMT -5
OMG, Hsieh is not a counterpuncher. She is as brainless as they come. At least she was when I saw her at USO qualies back in the day when she was, like, 9.
Hsieh = 1/Chan.

I guess the thread titles are going to be jinxes all week? Keep that in mind, haters!
Hsieh serving for the match...0-30.

Hchoke!
Can she break for the match, or will this be a career-crushing defeat? She had 6-2 5-2.
