Wimbledon 2009

Has started.

I predict that Federer will win and Murray will be beaten in the first week by a gigantic Eastern European sparing us all the spectre of MurrayMania

Yep, me to.

We can only hope. Although I'm sure "Murray Mania" wont be half as gut wrenchingly awful as all that "Henman Hill" business of a few years ago. Which truly was just awful.

Strange though that we have so much contempt for a player from our nation. Maybe the patriotic Uniion Jack should be out, and I should shout "Come on Murray!!!" at the top of my lungs?




No ... I dont think so :D

:( 'Murray Mania' Kinda puts me off watching anything to do with Wimbledon! After his little "I'm British when I loose and Scottish when I win" statement I don't care who knocks him out. Should have taken up the 'Caber' instead, the big 'Tosser' that he is :1orglaugh
 
These are professional athletes performing to earn a living.

I have no idea why I should be expected to support a British player over a player from another country. Why should I support a player I find comparatively bland and whose game doesn't really excite me ?

Davis cup - another kettle of fish that is for national pride. Murray's absence was noted
 
Its great how we in Britain seem to love to slag off our sporting hopefuls. Yes the whole Henmania stuff was awful & he is a bit of a git but he was, at one time, number 4 in the world.
Murray is also a bit of an arsehole, but I hope he does well. I doubt if he'll win but I'll be supporting him even though he's scotch!
 
Another boring Women's finale??? So predictable! :rolleyes:

I'm a Scot and I hope he gets fucked up the arse at Wimbledon.Something
hilarious has to happen there this year :D

It's good to be the king...
I hope Murray does well - and I found the "Hen-mania" of previous years tedious and vomit-inducing.

However (apart from hoping Serena Williams wins), I could happily sleep through the next two weeks..........:sleep:
 
Quote from Wimbledon Andrew Castle..........
Give Sharapova WIDTH,and she'll Punish you

how many you guys would take the Punishment?
For giving her Width????
 
Without Nadal in the tourney, Wimby loses some lustre this year, sad to say. It's a shame that Feds will *stroll* to his championship and break Pete Sampras's record for total championships.

It appears that our British friends feel about Andy Murray as I feel about Andy Roddick. Is that a fair comparison? Andy is an overhyped 1-trick pony who crumbles under pressure and blames everyone for his failures....and he's Feds' b*tch. That's not someone I think will bring home the title...

I have to say that Wimbledon is the greatest tourney on the planet. It is total class, and I wish the Jabroneys who run the commercially crass US Open would take a page from the Brits.
 
Roddick is far better looking................
 
I predict that I will have better things to do.. like sleeping.

Watching the lovely Dementieva at the moment. :lovecoupl

Darn, I missed it. Have to check her out round two... I find women's tennis to be more entertaining than the men's draw usually (says the guy on a porn forum;)).

Elena Dementieva is through to the 4th... Yessss!!!! I hope this is her year. :)

Watched parts of a great match which has been postponed to tomorrow; Haas vs Milic: 7-5, 7-5, 1-6, 6-7, 6-6... by far the best match I've seen thus far this year. Go Haas! :thumbsup:

You're just kidding, right?
