Is anybody watching Nadal vs Muller? 2-2, final set is 8-8. Nadal was two sets down.

Murray and Konta in the QFs

Tried watching today. Not happening. I'll watch re-runs of McEnroe and Borg instead.

Fire and Ice baby!

Lack of personality with today's players. Give me Ilie Nastase any day of the week.

What are you talking about? Murray and Djokovic have mad personality. Murray bites and hits himself with his rackets when he ****s up. Djokovic is always cursing and carrying on. I once saw him go to his chair, smash his racket until it was a smoldering ruin, take out another fresh racket, and then do the exact same thing to that one. And I hear some guy recently got the McEnroe seal of approval for being an on-court douchebag loudmouth. You just don't like new ****.

TBF I like my athletes to be hilariously unpalatable to the masses. Too many people still latch onto the idea that people whose only reason for being famous is being athletic should also be paragons of virtue. That's dumb. Give me *******s. All the *******s. Let those people who idolize athletes for reasons other than athleticism eat crow. I still love that American football player who, in response to the idea of gay people on his team, responded, "Can’t be with that sweet stuff." Legendary.

I like the bad guys if they're likeable with their badness.
