Wimbledon
« on: June 29, 2006, 07:13 AM »

Is this forum a strictly football and basketball forum only, are there any tennis fans in the house, pls tell me I'm not the only one! Don't make me leave NL! Will anyone beat Federer this year, James Blake's playing well, any chance this yr we'll see the 1st African American male champ since Ashe, will Roddick or Nadal finally beat the big man on grass? What about the gals, a Russian or Justin, will Martina make a comeback, are the curtains finally drawn on the Williams show? Talk to me guys, don't make me leave NL now!  Wink

Its unfortunate that the World cup is taking shine off this year's wimbledon.

Imagine, i only watched Federer and Henman's match.

Not good enough sir!  Angry you must watch everything, all the football all the tennis, basketball, formula 1, athletics, everything! thats what summer's all about, take it all in.   Grin  yea, didn't Federer make Tim look small, poor Tim, I think he should put his rackets in the cellar, whats the point of hanging on if you don't have a chance in hell of winning anything!

I am just happy that Agassi passed the first round - no matter how old he is, he will always be one of my best players.
I thought they dealt with Martina Hingis but she's back. I don't even want her to win her next game, her personality stinks.
I cannot believe that Federer beat Tim Henman 6 - 0 in one set. Even though Federer is very good, that should have been a tough match. I think Tim has lost his magic.
And finally, after the world cup, I think i will now concentrate fully on the wimbledon.  Grin

Hi J  Kiss so your an Agassi lover are you, well he's meeting Nadal in 3rd round, think his bones might be a bit too cranky to survive that one  Sad  Why you hating on Martina? she's my babe, we go wey back, she's alright and she's back! into 3rd round already.  Wink

Hi Shagari.  Kiss
I ain't hating on her - i just don't like her. She makes me cringe so proud yet so annoying. If you and her go way back Lips sealed Lips sealed Lips sealed Lips sealed Just wait till Hingis faces someone that will take her down like a brick.  Grin
See the way Nadal struggled to beat Kendrick. As far as I am concerned, Kendrick was the better player but he got tired. I hope Agassi whoops his behind. Agassi def must go out in style this wimbledon since it's his last.

Shagari, I would have been against Portugal but sorry, Ronaldo is too cute for me to be against Wink
Since you're french now, Comment ca va?

No, they are playing today apparently. Clijsters vs Henin. It's just like Roland Garros! I wanted them for the finals but oh well.
