Paris will be upset city on Saturday! ;D I like Davydenko over Federer in 5 sets and Djokovic to upset Nadal in 4 sets.
Leena, did Mimi move to Arizona with you?

As much as I'd like to see Nadal lose, it will never happen. He's playing at his highest level, and probably won't lose a set. Yes, Mimi is here with me.  |

How has Mimi the cat adjusted to the searing heat of Arizona after living in Buffalo? That can be tough on animals as well as people.
Leena, if Djokovic serves well then he can win.

It was very tough at first... especially since the Little Princess would stretch out and act miserable when it was 75 or above in NY. She's gotten used to it, though.
Unless Novak can serve like Karlovic, he's not winning. Rafa is too good on dirt.

I'm glad Mimi has adjusted to the Arizona heat. It sounds like she's a somewhat spoiled kitty.  Leena, a few months ago you had an ongoing battle with a heavy co-worker who gave you a hard time. How did that turn out? And was that in Buffalo or Arizona? I have a feeling the 2 men's French Open semifinals will be alot better than the 2 women's French Open semifinals were. |

I thought it was strange a thread with only mens matches generated so many replies.
I see this is about Mimi.

First of all, there is no such word as "alot". Secondly, what do you mean by "much better"? Superior tennis? WELL, THANKS CAPTAIN OBVIOUS. That's WHY there is a women's game and men's game. It would not really be fair for them to compete against each other, would it? Or did you just mean "closer". Because that would be really hard thing to pull off, wouldn't it? Although, Federer and Nadal have many times crushed their opponents in big matches in ways not seen since Graf would spit out also-rans in the 80s. So that actually might not be a slam dunk. But still, great prediction, Miss Cleo. How do you do it ... |

Mimi and Nikki are both lovable!
Plus, she likes following the ball during Nikki matches. When Maria is on, she goes to take a shit.

Davydenko and Djokovic MUST save tennis. Ivanovic's responsibility lies tomorrow. But for now, we must focus on the double D. Hey, they could be a bra or something!

But that's not what I meant. I meant the men's semi's will be closer and more intense than the women's semi's were. Capiche? Leena, Mimi sounds wonderful. I guess Mimi is like you and prefrs Nicole to Maria just like you Leena. Way to brainwash your own cat.   |

Nadal is up 2 sets to love on Djokovic. Nadal needs to win this match in straight sets so he can conserve some energy for Sunday's finals against Roger Federer who is widely considered the most talented and greatest player in the history of men's tennis. Rafael will need all of his energy to be able to play great tennis and beat a French Open obsessed Federer in the final.

I stayed away from the internet all morning in order to watch the taped coverage as if it were live. But after Rog, the coverage ended.  |

Are you kidding? If there's one thing Rafa has an infinite supply of, it's ENERGY. He could play 10 sets today, 5 sets tomorrow, and still be plenty fresh on Sunday. |

I'm not kidding Janie. Beating Federer on Sunday is the greatest challange of Nadal's career. Everything is set up for Federer to win the French this year. A dream draw, easy matches and alot of confidence in playing Nadal on red clay after recently routing Nadal in the Rome final. Nadal will have to play great to beat Federer for the 2007 French Open final.

If Rafa plays like he has in the past 3 rounds, Roger will have to play 3 sets of Jesus-Fed tennis. That's unlikely.

I predict a 1-6 6-1 6-4 7-6 scoreline for Nadal.
