US OPEN TENNIS Thread! Let the late nights commence.

[Raahh]

New thread for the US open.

Am hoping to get round to seeing some of it, but in the meantime, I am limbering up my refresh finger.

[JuanPotatoTwo]

Djok walking all over Querry.

[JuanPotatoTwo]

2 sets to love to Djok.

[JuanPotatoTwo]

Djok wins easily :)

[JuanPotatoTwo]

Are you all out having lives? That's not allowed you know.

[JuanPotatoTwo]

Eurosport showing another completed match now. Why do they do that?

[Raahh]

I watched X Factor and casualty

Then dh decided to talk to me. Honestly, no sense of timing.

I don't feel so bad if I'm missing a replay

[JuanPotatoTwo]

Hello! Doesn't your dh know there's tennis and mnetting to be fine?

[JuanPotatoTwo]

Fine = done.

[HarveySchlumpfenburger]

Simon Cowell, Juan? At least it's not Jeremy Kyle I suppose.

[Raahh]

Stan through due to a walkover. He went on to win the Aussie after getting a WO against Popsock in round 3...could this be a sign?

[Raahh]

The US Open site is showing pictures and analysis of the Murray match- it is titled 'An Englishman in New York'

Er, whoops.

[JuanPotatoTwo]

Oh Clay, don't tell everyone But, yes, I have to admit it's true, once upon a time I had eyes only for Simon. Those were the bad old days however and now I've seen the light. Although sadly I'm closer in age to Simon than Juan.

I'm not feeling it for Stan, he's not having a good year. I'll call Djok as the winner I think. What do you folks think?

[Raahh]

I think Djok is the safe bet. I don't think Stan will get past the next round. He's not done that well since January.

Federer could make it his last hurrah (how many times have i said that?), but I'd rather he didn't.

Ferrer might surprise us all (hopeful)

[JuanPotatoTwo]

Gah, if I could only figure out how to cancel my Eurosport subscription I'd do it straight away. They're showing the Djok v Querrey match again now. Useless.

[Raahh]

I know, I'm watching- and Frew has just said that Potato was lucky to win his US open title- and isn't likely to win anything again

Never liked Frew.

[JuanPotatoTwo]

I think Roger is Djok's only real obstacle, and he could do it. Djok hasn't been playing too well going into the us. Don't think he will though.

[Raahh]

When is Jelena due? It's all being kept a bit secret, if it's getting late on, there's always the possibility that Djok might have to rush off..

[JuanPotatoTwo]

Oh raahh, how funny. I heard him say that earlier too, and was spluttering indignantly to myself. What does he know anyway? :)

[JuanPotatoTwo]

October I believe, but don't know when in October.

[JuanPotatoTwo]

I wonder if Djok is intending to go to Asia. Not so easy to rush back from there when her due date approaches.

[Raahh]

He knows nothing *Juan.

October isn't so far off, really.

Can't believe it is September next week- but the dcs are very ready to go back to school- although ds is starting secondary, and I'm not sure I'm ready for that!

[Raahh]

Oh, Djok should definitely not go to Asia. And he should just write off the rest of the year, I reckon

[JuanPotatoTwo]

I know, the holidays seem to have sped by. I remember thinking only the othervdsy howcwe had weeks left - yet suddenly they're back to school next week. Your ds will be fine - I remember the China trip! You worried, he didn't. :)

[JuanPotatoTwo]

Does anyone know what eurosport is showing at the moment. I can't get the fecking useless thing to load.

[Raahh]

You're right Juan- ds does take things in his stride.

I have Ferrer/Simon on Eurosport at the moment. Score wise, it's one of those backwards and forwards type matches. Sadly, in Simon's favour.
