Where's the wheelchair tournament? No Esther! Wimbledon are SEXIST and BIAS against disabled people.

Can't believe that 72-year old Björkman/Ulliyett might reach the finals here.

There's only a men's doubles tournament for wheelchairs. What's up with that.
Let's burn Bimbleton.

Jie is our only hope. If it's all Sistahz, I'm rooting for Pee. What about the rest of you? Venus as well. I don't actually find her that annoying, certainly not as annoying as her sister.

Can't believe I actually got a chance to use that Hopp Rainer blew a 4-1 4th set lead, served for 5-1, and Allez Arnaud forced a 5th set thanks to ze 9-7 tie-break.

If the Schuettler v. Clement match doesn't finish today, I think Wimbledon never schedules 2 single matches in the same day, so they would play their semi-final Saturday.

And, of course, Nadal, in the midst of running down some ball that no human should ever reach, will pull something in his knee, or lose a leg, and the final will stink as Federer wins his 62343th Wimbledon. I've prepared for the worst ;D

Five errors in a row. Stupid Demented. Fucking stupid, stupid, retarded, embarrassing, Demented. Listened to the first semi on the radio today and chuckled to myself throughout: "And Elena sends that one into the net", "dumped in the bottom of the net" "another netted backhand" "that dropshot bounced on the service line" x 1000. Ironically, it sounded like her serve actually held up, while everything else collapsed for most of the match. The second semi sounded a little better. Shame Zheng couldn't get the ball in play off that Silliams second serve on SP in the second. A third set would have been fun. I think I'll go shopping on Saturday. And avoid all electronic stores between 14:00 and 16:00.
