They were Nadal-Moya pictures.
Hmm, Getty Images must hate us.

Becca
Am I going to have to post about Rafa and Mago here now your not posting at wx? I don't know what the problem is but he's not 100% fit. He looked flat and together with Madrid last year that was the worst match i've seen him play, not only is he low on confidence but indoors is by far his worst surface. He shouldn't paly Paris qualies. He couldn't push off on his serve, but he still kept fighting all the way
Tommy ass also has problems with his shoulder, Spanish DC team is royally f@cked

Tommy is having shoulder problems, but he's still playing, so they can't be that serious.
Thanks for copying this over here so that I'd see it ;D

a commentator on eurosport
unfortunately Robredo did indeed withdraw, I don't know if he'll play Paris, probably not
at least Moya seems to be back playing Paris

Robredo Hopefully he's okay for DC doubles. Spain isn't favoured for that tie anyways, but I would be really surprised if any other combo could pull it off at this point. If Robredo doesn't play, who will they bring in to play with Nadal? Verdasco? Lopez? One would think, in theory, that Lopez would be the better doubles player.

By the way Dina, I requested that I be removed from the member's list on WX. I do hope that you continue to talk to me over here or on Bob's board, but I understand if you get sick of bouncing back and forth eventually. I wish this had just been temporary, but I honestly have no interest in spending anymore time than necessary with those people.

It's alright, I'll post stuffe here as well;) Rafa's not on the Paris qualies draw anymore, I can't get on to Vamosrafaell.com? ? I think Robredo will beok for Davis Cup, he better be btw Did you see Guillermo has dumped Markus? WTF is he doing??? I bet he isn't even 60% fit, is his ego?? I hope he knows what he's doing, but he sounds like he doesn't

Susan wouldn't just close the site without any notice, unless something was really really wrong. It's good that he's just expected for doubles. If he rests, I imagine that his shoulder will hold up for the doubles match. I think it's his ambition. He's just sick of not playing and would rather play and lose than not play at all. Pretty soon, there will be nobody left in s america to coach him ;D

apparently Stefanki is rumoured to be the next coach. He better not be!!!!
Coria is a f@cking idiot!

I don't rate him as a coach. But I don't see it happening, I think a pre-requisite will be that they speak Spanish. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a Spanish coach, but it's not like there are that many available, he's had pretty much everyone;)
Markus had his personal matters and I respect him for that"
Hello everybody once again. How are you? I hope you are fine...
I am writing to you because I wanted to tell you very important things about my future. First of all, everybody knows that Gabriel Markus is no longer my coach. He had his personal matters and I accepted his decision.
Although the injuries did not allow me to work efficiently with him, there is no doubt he is a good coach. But, we are living different moments and have different objectives. Above all, the separation was in good terms and as I am used to say, you always get something positive. This time was not the exception. I don't think this particular issue merits more comments.
There is no doubt that I do not like to change coachs so frequently and it is not so convenient. Now it's time to build the team that will be with me until the end of my career. It is not simple, but our wish is to confirm you before the end of the year who will be part of it. The idea is that I will become the #1 of the world with them.
I also would like to clarify something in order to stop the rumors. It is true that I'm thinking about getting a couch that is not Argentine. I want to state something clearly before any nonsense is said: It is not true that Argentine coaches aren't good but I want this process to be different.
Besides, it is a fact that I will have a physical trainer with me all the time. Regarding my relationship with Gil Reyes, I will work with him for 2 weeks in Las Vegas as part of my pre-temp. By now, this is all I have to say about this.
In the short term, I follow very closely the last tournaments of the tour to check whether the score that I have entitle me to play the Master. Together with Dr. Cotorro we are working hard to be in the best possible conditions by the beginning of the tournament. I am very eager to play and win it. Nothing would make me happier than having the possibility to dedicate the title to my grandfather, who is still looking down on me from heaven...
I am aware that there is no need to risk all the recovery work I have been doing on my shoulder. But last Friday I played a complete set and I felt no pain and this makes me feel enthusiastic. There are two weeks left to keep on working the physical & technical part. Anyway, if I am not able to qualify to this Master I will do my best to play next year. We'll see...
Besides, I would like to invite to all of you who play tennis in Argentina to participate in a dream that came true: The First Guillermo Coria's Cup. (Here is the link to enroll).
I hope to turn this tournament into tradition and to give a hand to all of those who want to devote themselves professionally to tennis, as well as I received help from the "AsociaciĆ³n Argentina de Tenis". May be, it is not a huge contribution but I hope that in time it'll help to give all the Argentine kids a place where they can forge their first weapons.
Lastly, I would like to talk about the forum. I have read messages from some people that I do not understand. Why do you enter and write nonsense if you are not interested? Luckily, the great majority is using the forum as a chat room and they are helping a lot to moderate it. Thank you very much to all of you..
Well, I do not have much more to say. I appreciate all the supportive emails. They make my wait easier. I am looking forward to playing an official game.
I'll be in touch. A hug to everybody,
Guille

I think he'll manage to just sneak in. but we'll see what happens.
Because they're losers, Coria!

I can't imagine it would have just died. It's not like Susan would have run out of resources. And she always covers her bases, so I can't imagine that they are having legal issues.
Anyways, hopefully it will be back up again by dc at least.

Agassi and Nalbandian withdrew from Paris so Coria qualifies for Houston

We always knew he was going to ;D
I don't know how I feel about him going. We'll see.
Monfils won, you must be thrilled ;D

Monfils is a nice kid and I don't dislike him as I do Byrdprich, he has a lovely smile, but I can't like his game when he is just Roddick x 2. I saw the match and Enqvist selfdestructed in the second set. Couldn't buy a forehand. I like Tsonga's game more

I won't see Monfils unless he draws Andre sometime in the next ten years, but meh ;D I haven't heard from fat spaniard, but i'll keep an eye out and let you know what he's up to ;D Can you do me a favour and ask Janie if it's okay for you to give me her email?

Thanks! I don't think that she will have any problem with it (we have met, afterall!), but you should ask before getting it for me, just in case.
I'm going to take off to my volunteer placement. I'll be back on in an hour ;D

Nah, Ferrero actually looks almost good there, if you ignore the spaced out look. He still has pretty eyes!
Nadal on the other hand... you know, something between the top of the nose and the chin just doesn't WORK. I don't know what it is.
Anyways, I got the PM from Janie. Thanks ;D
