Cool. We need ya. Do you know what to do? I already signed up, I'd suggest that everyone goes ahead and does it right away. I've tried to wait to the last minute before, and then I forget, and mad at myself for the rest of the Open.<br />

Sure, sounds like some some good clean fun... never was much good at it though. I can, however, tell who'll win on the men's side! As if that's a hard thing to do....

Hey Jan, we're entering this fantasy tennis (AO pickem) competition for fun. Its the battle of the boards where different tennis sites go against one another... long story. Anyway, would you be interested in being on our team and making some AO bracket picks?<br />

Well I'm hoping he'll pull together for the AO.<br />
<br />
However, he really hasn't been the same since the tendonitis started giving him problems in his knees. I don't when it was that it started giving him problems (sometime last season); he just hasn't been the normal Rafa since. His game is so punishing not just on his opponents, but on his body. He may be extremely mobile and runs down just about anything, but he's certainly not svelte. The way elegant style that Roger pulls off is better suited…

He may be extremely mobile and runs down just about anything, but he's certainly not svelte. The way elegant style that Roger pulls off is better suited for a longer career, which is evident in the fact that he seems to be healthy and uninjured most of the season. I even remember Agassi and the way he used to give up on balls that were just to well hit. He'd just let some shots go and save energy for a better opportunity.<br />
<br />
Maybe Rafa will grow wiser with age and realize he needs to change his game a bit to be more durable. That's my humble two cents.... Wow, I wonder if his knees ar…tag:tennisopolis.com,2008-01-10:1869403:Comment:39962008-01-10T18:30:52.674ZThePoethttp://tennisopolis.com/profile/ThePoet
Wow, I wonder if his knees are still a problem. It's not surprising that Yhouzny took him down, it's just surprising he took him down in that fashion. I remember him saying he was having trouble training as he usually does, so that could be the issue. We need Nadal healthy for the sake of the sport.
