What a BS he told at the press conf, just

!
My commentators said they're gonna show Marat's match on video at 00.30 my time. So I try to get some sleep before and post any news worth mentioning on Monday. I'm gonna have medical tests Mo and Tu so I won't be able to be online that much, I'll be gone extremely early in the morning and try to post as soon as I can, sorry! I hope he won't tank tonight and make me feel even worse! GRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!
And please don't worry, I'm not gonna die or anything!

what's the med check up for maria? just a routine thing? anyway, it ain't that bad...u're not scared of needles right?

Dont know if this helps anyone but if you go to
www.eurosports.com
and under Events click on Olympics
and then Tennis, it does bring up a live score board

Also I read over there on eurosports that Federer said that he was surprized at the speed of the courts at Athens and believes it/this will narrow the gap between the players.

Also ES said that Andy and Venus overcame a swirling gusty wind to win their matchs

None of this is very encouraging for habibi

How could he lose?? BTW: He looks really nice in that new shirt.
