Quote from: BM1090 on August 29, 2025, 03:51:53 PMSucks bad for Shelton, he was playing so well.

Mannarino's quote after the match was actually pretty amazing.  Basically "he was beating me till he got hurt, he would have won.  I'm very lucky"  And then said it was a fun match and Shelton "kicked my ass at the start of the summer".

Super bummer cause he's been on such a heater.  And now you compound it with Tiafoe sleepwalking through his match.  But he looks like he may have finally woken up a bit.

Rough year for Tiafoe, definitely not up to his standards. I know he made his deepest French open run but besides that it was tough

Gotta respect mannarino. Still trotting out here in late 30s with no delusion about his good fortune

It's a holiday. Sports fans are off work and like having something worthwhile to watch in the afternoon.

Or it's a woke conspiracy.

It's inexcusable.  Two of the biggest names in women's tennis and they decide to put them on 2nd on Ashe?  That's honestly absurd.  Anisimova is on at night vs a no-name.  WTF are these people doing?  This is the most lucrative women's sport in the world.  Beyond belief they can't figure this out.

It's been a boring AF match. Right now, it looks like it shoulda been at 9 a.m. on an outer court.

There's a college football game this evening. ESPN knows what it's doing.

Coco is off her game.

I think it's time for Chris Evert to be removed from the booth.  Of course we could have said that 20 yrs ago.  She's not good.  Mary Joe Fernandez has always been way, way, way, better.

Is Fernandez foreign?  Sounds Mexican to me.  Pass

Most boring "big" match I've seen in a long time. No long rallies. No back-and-forth games. No "wow!" shots.

All Osaka did was hit the ball into the middle of the court and let Coco hit it into the net.

Only good thing was that ESPN was smart enough to not put it on in prime time.

No last name should be longer than 5 letters

Call ICE to take care of the problem and you will be able to relax.
