The usual routine on the 2nd Friday: They're supposed to start at Noon, but we wait until local CBS affiliates show their news, etc... because we're total bitches to the Network.

Pony is really responsible. He beat Simon at '08 USO and this past Wimbledon, and had he made it through, he is 3-0 against Isner. He's too tall to let Isner get away with Being A Serve.

The next match won't be any better, either. Rafa should waste Andrew easily.

He should beat Andy easily but he does have some losses to him. This is 2011 though so it should be Rafa in three or four.

You know, I don't know if this is the right place, but I'm sure glad Kerber is going to play the semis instead of Sharapova.
Say, did you see her play Serena here a few years ago? It was a good match. I think Serena won 3 and 5.
I'm thinking Fed can win this title. He needs Nadal to lose, though.

Fun facts about some of the boys' singles QFists! - O. Golding is a former child actor.
- A. Pavlasek is Petra Kvitova's boyfriend.
- K. Hossam is probably a terrorist and this is a ploy to blow up NYC on 9/11/11.
A couple of these things I'm fairly positive about and the other is JUST A HUNCH.

Team Ali won Yay. They're down 5-2 in the semifinals though. This would be a golden opportunity to win a Slam, being the highest seeded team left.

Sad to be reminded this is all Pony's fault. Note to USTA from almost the whole world: next time, please put Fed-Tsonga on in the daytime and bury Isner-Murray in the middle of the night.

I'm thinking Golding's acting career must have peaked at about age two. Some things I'm not especially curious about, and why Corswandt would call a teenage boy a bunny is one of them. I suppose Murray is the lesser of two evils, based on who one would rather see play in the semis. But he's -ing himself for no good reason.
