And look what I found at cnnsi: It's time for American tennis fans and the media to look beyond the U.S. borders and discover players like Rafael Nadal, Guillermo Coria and Guillermo Cañas.  Allez him! |

It's not like he's blown easy draws never in his life again. Blech, something wrong with that sentence, but my brain is fried. Nevertheless, Willy |

What was up with him after the restart! Blech! "Well, today I started a very different match. First I wasn't playing at the same level as what I'd been playing during the previous matches. I was feeling very tired. I hadn't really had enough time to recover. He started playing well. I wasn't moving very well. I was very slow. I was feeling very tense and things started getting complicated." There ya go, from the horse's mouth, 8 reasons for his blech start. ;D |

Willy into the QF without striking a ball. Nice break! Never thought Kiefer was such a gentleman |

That is excellent luck for Willy! I hope he can rest up now. And it's good to know that Paolita loves him. :lust:

Hmmm, quite the conundrum: stay up late for Heat-Pistons, OR, get up early for WILLY, who's up first thing tomorrow, 6 AM ET -- tough one! Most likely I will do neither. Can you hang on till I get up, Willy?  (Can you hang on after I go to bed, Shaq/Dwayne?) |

"More errors from a visibly worried Cañas. Ring-rut is one thing, but he's hardly hit a single decent shot all day
"5-0 Puerta, and Guillermo, sorry, Willy Cañas is staring a first-set whitewash in the dace!"
(whoever is typing is doing as well as Willy!)

Heh...
"Cañas has changed from a white t-shirt into red. I'll try and hold off any 'Liverpool' comeback chat, at least until it's two sets to love"

"30-30, and this game is finely poised. Puerta hits wide and it's set point for Guillermo Cañas... there it is! One set all! Willy Cañas back in the match!"  |

Two sets to one now! Don't choke, Willy!!!! ESPN might grudgingly show us some of this .... OH NO!!!! they are going to show a TAPE of this match from the start instead of joining it live! WHY WHY is ESPN reverting to their old bad ways.  |
