It's been sad with no tennis. I'm pleased but a bit confused he didn't take a longer break though, considering what he said about wanting to recover. I'm sure he knows what's best for him though, right?
"What is the significance of Rafa wearing different colored shorts than the rest of them?" I think the slashy version might go a little something like this
LL - Thank you so much for your message/research. OT, know you enjoy your AU tennis, so when I saw the IHT article on the Masters, thought you might appreciate this
*LOLOL* Gosh darn you slashers are hard to please. I’ve heard everything from “cracktastic” to “Ken doll” to “codpiece” to “gay Tron”. Now “no neck”. Glad I don’t work for the tournament. Also glad it’s the weekend. :D
oh and one other thing, which is frustrating me much... I've been to the mutua website and seen the grid for the match schedules. But there were no names filled in, so how/when will I be able to see who plays who and when during those opening rounds?
Yes that's right. Wrong time zones so no sleep, tense stomach, shredded manicures. Adrenaline overload. Roger saying sadistic things like "I enjoy 5-set matches."
So, have you enjoyed watching Roger play? He was pretty awesome this tournament, even though he lost. I thought he looked so pretty too, in his beautiful black and white tennis duds. Sigh. I miss my Fedal final. :(
I really did enjoy watching the tournament. I left work early, 'sick', one day just so I could catch one of Rafa's matches. I was so hoping for the Fedal final. Oh well. Maybe in Shanghai!

Also the exo-skeletoned Rafa and Roger are really neat pictures.

(I saw one for the Djoker too. I just acted like it wasn’t there.)
Posit that louise and the AU Rogi/Rafa posse could know something the rest of us don’t.
Inquiring minds want to know. :D

Date: 2008-10-10 02:04 pm (UTC)I must say that I think Roger's suit is a bit more svelt. Rafa looks a bit bulky and where did his neck go?
