How long can one take on a injury time-out??? 5-7 min....
I agree with you here BMW, I hope she loses too, she doesn't deserve the victory in the finals.

I thought the rules only allowed like 3-5 minutes max... I think Pierce faked her injury.

I hope the rulemakers take a look at this. It's unfair.

I'm rooting for Federer in tomorrow's final.

I was rooting for Blake to beat Agassi earlier in the week, but he couldn't put away Agassi even tohugh he was up two sets to none. :sweat:

Oh well.

Even though it would be cool to see Agassi win it all, as old as he is in tennis age.....35 doesn't see that old, does it?, anyways, it was amazing how he keeps on going and pulling through. I am not so sure against the young and powerful Federer. I think the young federer should take agassi in the finals. I would be surprised if he doesn't and Agassi take it.

Agassi will be the sentimental favorite and the crowd will be backing him, so you never can tell... Federer has an excellent all-around game: he handily whipped Hewitt in four sets. It was the first time Federer gave up a set to Hewitt after winning 17 consecutive sets from the Aussie.... That's domination.


Totally happy to see Pierce get an ass-kicking from Clijsters in the women's final, 6-3, 6-1. :thumbsup:

Awesome. Go Clijsters :woot: :dancing:
Btw....who owned Sharapova????

Yea...17 consecutive sets...not that easy to do against a any seeded person right??? Federer is amazingly good. I think Hewitt put up a good fight after the first set :mrgreen: I hope Agassi will put up a great fight too. I don't know if he has the energy to go 5 sets again though :sweat:

Clijsters.

I was rooting for Sharapova. :puppydog:

Maybe Federer will do Agassi a favor and sweep him out in three. :hehe:

OOHhhh....thats cool. I kinda wanted Sharapova to lose...see someone else win :mrgreen:

Your don't like Agassi that much do you BMW???

doesn't sound like he like agassi at all....
agassi has won his fair share and has been around a long time, in tennis years, but i still would like him to win it, seems like a crowd favorite...
Although, I think with Federer, he has the youth and strength on his side and should take Agassi in three or four sets. :doh:

A moment of silence for all those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001.
Peace to all.

Not my favorite player.

Really wanted to see Blake beat him, considering all of the hardships that Blake endured last year, including the death of his dad...

Agassi gave Federer a great fight during the 2nd and 3rd set....but ran out of gas in the end. Not bad by the 35 yr old.

The turning point was that tiebreaker in the third set: Federer turned it up a notch and dominated, just like he did to Hewitt yesterday.

Awesome.

was even surprised that Agassi was able to give Federer a lot of pressure and take one of the sets, but age and strength were on Federer's side...

I was very surprised how much pressure Agassi was able to put on Federer and even take that one set 6-2 :shocked: GO MR. 35 yr old :applaud: :victory:

With all this tennis talk...we might need to have a Tennis thread :hehe:

Nah, the Open is over... Not much more to talk about after today's final.

how do you get ahead in life...


From a strictly mathematical viewpoint it goes like this:


What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?

Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?

We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%.

How about achieving 103%?

What makes up 100% in life?



Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:



If:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z


is represented as:


1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.


Then:


H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K

8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%


and


K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E

11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%


But,


A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E

1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%


And,


B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T

2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%


AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.


A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G

1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%



So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that while Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there, it's the Bullshit and Ass Kissing that will put you over the top.
