#1 Lame joke. Tennis has no place on Rantburg, unless Serena Williams decides to insult the French again. Besides, Federer is going to win the Aussie this year. Neither Safin nor Hewitt can beat him when he's in form.

#2 TT, this isn't about tinnis, but on a much higher plane, Federer is a bigfooted plodding knome.

#3 I'm fully backing Tokyo Taro.

When I was young I used to hate John McEnroe for how he used to carry on and swear....
Later on I matured and I realised he was, and probably will forever be, the only remotely interesting person even loosely associated with tennis.

Layton Hewwit's dummy spits are pissweak and not worth the steam off one of McEnroe's turds.

I concurr on the French however.

#6 Is this guy an Iraqi? If he is, we know he was playing for himself for once, instead of being the surrogate for Uday. Either way, I'm surprised the turbantops "allow" tennis, since it's not specifically mentioned in the Quran. He must be a sufi - certainly not a Wahabbi, who never think of anything but the Quran and blowing people up.

#7 Actually I beleive that Agassi is of ~~Persian~~ Iranian descent. I don't beleive he is in need to a turban to cover his hair, though. No need for the French to ban him from a Grand Slam match.

#8 I hate it when no one notices me. RoseMia's Boo Boo was my best role.
