    Don’t think Paula will ever be right again.

    Still not convinced Aryna plays Thursday, but she’ll either demolish Simona in about 50 minutes, or break down crying in like the 5th game. 

    DId Badosa have surgery or something?

    She was out for a while and then played the mixed doubles exhibition before Indian Wells before promptly pulling out of the main draw.

  2. Saw that Venus lost in straight sets after accepting yet another Wild Card invite that could have gone to some promising up-and-coming American.

    Venus has no shame.

    And after seeing this...

    And then this...

    I thought... "I'll give Emma some lower back pain."

    Also, didn't realize that Raducanu had fallen to ...

    Aryna may not make that match now.

    Koltsov was in Florida supporting Sabalenka ahead of the upcoming Miami Open. 

    Despite Kolstov's shock passing, the two-time Australian Open champion still intends to play the tournament in the Sunshine State, where she is seeded second, according to the Tennis Channel.

    Normally "Jumped from a balcony" means that Putin had the guy thrown off a balcony. Don't know if this guy was a critic of the Belarusian president sucking Putin's mini-pecker, but in this case...

    If Sabalenka "still intends to play the tournament", then I'm guessing that she broke up with him. Either that, or his brain is mush from CTE and he came to say "Goodbye" to Sabalenka before jumping.

    PS- She looks smoking hot in the photo above.

    Sargent, De La Torre injured. Wright, Aaronson added. Nice to have both of the additions score over the weekend. 

    I don’t like adding Aaronson

    He sucks ass for months, if not a year and then finally gets dropped. 

    He has one good game and he’s back in the squad. 

    JFC, Gregg! What the fuck?

    We're witnessing the birth of our first Euro superstar. I think we all wondered if a young kid would come along and break through - turns out that kid was already here. 

    TWENTY. For fucking MILAN. 

     

    Puli flew past his marker to be in pole position  to get to that keeper’s save first.

    He may be about 5’6”-5’7” and weigh about 120-130 lbs, but that boy can fly.

    1) Alejandro Moreno looks WAY better for Club America than he does for the US.  Also, 2) Cade Cowell was playing for Chivas.  I was under the impression that Chivas consisted of only Mexican nationals.  I guess I was wrong.

    1) Alejandro Moreno…

    2) Cade Cowell

    Guadalajara has accepted that they need to allow dual nationals (especially with Aztec blood 🩸) to play on their team or they will fall further into irrelevancy. 

    Cade has a Mexican passport, so he’s good enough these days.

    My Wolverhampton crush, Georgia Eden, was looking to be chuffed, but she ended up gutted.

    Her hair has definitely been better, but she’s young and still finding her look.

    Paul folded in that 3rd set. Final match score looks like a WTA special

    In the 2nd set tie-breaker he jumped and spun to hit the ball at about 3-2 and lost the point and twisted an ankle. (Maybe at 2-2.)

    He was having some issues with it and I think that it is the main reason that his form dipped in the tie-breaker, because he wasn’t as quick around the court. 

    Then he had his ankle taped after her lost the 2nd set and he wasn’t the same in the 3rd set. From his serve to his anticipation to his ability to endure 20+ hit rallies. He was missing something after her hurt his ankle. 

    It was crazy how quickly he anticipated things in the first set and the. In the second when he was coming back from being down 0-4. But he couldn’t do that in the 3rd. 

    I doubt that he’ll skip Miami, but it would be great if he could rest the ankle a week, but he will only get two to three days at most. And that’s after flying cross country when his ankle needs to be in a compression chamber… and a plane is basically the opposite of that. 

  9. Tommy Paul🇺🇸 coming back from 0-4 in the 2nd set to being back on serve at 4-5 as Medvedev🇷🇺 served for the 2nd set. 

    That two first named white boy has crazy cat-like 🐈 reflexes.

    UPDATE: Paul is now down 0-30. Shite!

     

    UPDATE #2: Paul reels off 4 straight points, it is now 5-5.

    Not sure where to put this. Brazil and Mexico are playing at Kyle Field this summer. @MissingInAction and me are* talking about a Texas crew to go.

    1- Two good teams. I am all about Brazil.

    2- UT needs a visible presence. Fuck aggy.

    3- We can learn their parking before the football rematch. Again, fuck aggy.

    1) I don’t go to College Station.

     Have been once and am never. Going again.

    2) * “Me are” is fucking regarded grammar. 

     Even the Mexicans & Brazilians wouldn’t butcher English like that. 
     

    3) Hopefully the concessions are influenced by the two teams, but get there just in case and sample the food outside the stadium. 
     

    Trash something on campus on your way out. Maybe use some kind of week killer to kill off the grass in an area that says:

    27-25

    Eh, their cover of The La's "There She Goes" was a Top 40 hit, too.

    Lisa Loeb:

    -“Stay (I Missed You)” was #1

    -“I Do” was #17

    -“Do You Sleep” was #18

    …3 Top 20 Hits and yet she’s a “1 Hit Wonder”.

  12. Emma’s excitement upon winning matched someone finishing a practice session  and heard her name yelled…

    …so she briefly acknowledged a possible fan or two before before proceeding to go pack her things because someone else needed the court for practice in a few minutes. 

    She just beat the #2 player in the world who was the tournament’s reigning champ and who won the most recent grand slam.

    Her response was similar to someone finishing up in a library with other people studying near her, so she will try to make as little noise or commotion possible, because she doesn’t want to disturb anyone.

    Damn, was waiting for Navarro/Svitolina, just assumed Novak was fine. 

    Novak is fine. 

    He’s out of the tournament before the Quarterfinals, but he’s fine. 

    Now he has extra time to go back to UCLA to train and watch some more NBA games.

    Expelled from St. Mark's School of Texas (Dallas, TX) in the tenth grade, Wilson finished his sophomore year at Thomas Jefferson School and then headed to a military academy in New Mexico. He then attended the University of Texas at Austin, where he met his future mentor and friend, Wes Anderson.
     

    Internet says he did.  

    Don’t post Owen’s bio and then insist that Luke went to UT.

    It isn’t a good look for UT students or Texas Exes.

    NYC would be about as union as it gets.

    Correct!

    You could add Detroit and Chicago to NYC if you would like, but I have never lived in those cities.

    The basic read comprehension & basic logic have taken a real dip on this page.
