I see Raonic-Wuss is also going on. Surely that must be on Canadian tv?

Boredo woah oh
I think I'm tired of Roger. Like, if he's not going to be really awesome, bleh.

Why did they cancel everything?! There was more than enough time for Azza vs BAG. They didn't want that match to be on Ashe to make sure the night session starts on time. Then their options was either to put it on a 'parking' court, or to schedule it on Ashe the next day. From their perspective, the latter makes more sense. Except this night session blows Rafa will bounce every ball over Chat's BH for 90 minutes then doubles no one cares Replaces DNOC

Well that's just not right. Canada needs to showcase its own on free tv, and there need to be people in the stands chanting CANADA! CANADA! CANADA! every 10 minutes. To make us Amurkns feel better.

Serious lulz. I tuned in just in time to see Robredo had taken the second set. I found a stream that is ok. I would prefer to use the USO streams I used last night, but my computer likes to ignore that I have mediahint installed, so those aren't working

Tipsarevic may have missed the memo that Ferrer is here to live up to his seeding, but he will receive it soon. I'm confident.

Tipsarevic has served for every set so far, but only one the second one. He knows what's up.

I haven't thought to check on that Ferrer match ONCE. So my mom phoned to talk about Roger's shocking poor play. And then Chris Evert came on the tv and my mom said "It says CHRISSIE. Why does it say CHRISSIE? I've never heard of that!" I said, well apparently CE insists on being called Chrissie now. My mom was so disgusted; it was hilarious! She said ""CHRISSIE??" She's almost 60! And she looks it, too!" I had honestly forgotten that she used to be called just Chris, and adopted this girlish nickname in her old age.

Wow, what a great comeback from Abanda in her first match back from injury. Third set bagel!
So Chloe shamed me into at least looking at the Ferrer score. Now I'm wondering if I should switch to that match, to the Wuss one, or maybe to Rafa. Because I can't picture this match changing, and even though I like Robredo a lot, I feel like I should turn my head away from Roger's sad decline.

Robredo up 2 sets and a break. This can't actually happen.

If Roger loses to Boredo at USO, that's it. It's time to accept it's over. TTR

Tommy so so happy. He doesn't mind at all being the one sending Rog into retirement.

Guys. I don't want to overstate it, but this is one of the worst losses of Federer's carrer/the best wins of Robredo's career.

Post by janie on Sept 2, 2013 19:08:51 GMT -5
It is both, I think. But why won't they let us stream people listen to Tommy's remarks? Sheesh. Can't grasp that when i saw TR play in Toronto he was the young kid. And now he's the old man.

Has Tommy ever had a win in a slam like this
I can only recall him reaching 4R of every slam during the time everyone whined about him being top 10

I've moved on from the men in pink and yellow to the Men In Black. And PK is still in this!

The whining Robredo got for being top ten never made much sense. He was consistent and earned his ranking. But yeah, he was never good at beating people above his ranking. I think he's had one or two good wins throughout the years, none of which I remember now.

Maybe Nadal will graciously take a loss in order to take some of the heat off Roger.

Were Nadal to lose to PK, at least we'd be spared a Nadal/Robredo QF.

Okay, and now it's Rafa who's in trouble. What's going on out there? And look at the sweat just pouring off his face!

I don't think Fed needs to hang it up, but I do think he should ditch Annacone now. Drop him, hire someone fresh, and work on coming back strong in 2014.

Fit Dave is one of life's winners. So is PK, apparently. First set to him.
