Heh heh heh...

Awwwww... sorry guys...and it was soooooo close!

What was it again? 7-6 6-1 6-1 from memory.

Did Pete have to get somewhere? He certainly wasn't on court for the last two sets. Hewitt had him completely bamboozled, but Lleyton played the best match he has ever played. Absolutely perfect. In his last three matches he has a total of unforced errors amounting to only 3...incredible!

Pete was indeed gracious in defeat though and I enjoyed his speech.

Bad luck you guys...

Tennis = Ping Pong all grown up. Does anyone besides John watch tennis? Or golf? Or baseball?

Sorry, I'm just listing the sports I find dreadfully boring. I'm sure everyone besides me likes these sports.

Here are some great jokes to play on golfers!:

Fill the cup up with dog crap or some other disgusting substance!

Sit behind the bushes with a sling shot or bb gun and take aim at the ball just as the golfer is on his backswing!

I was watching a practical joke program on the boob tube a while back where they also played a practical joke on golfers. Seems that the golfers had to hit the ball over some shrubbery obstical. Well, on the other side of this obstical (out of view) were some lite explosives (cherry bombs or something) that went off when the ball landed in that area!

I love all these sports..to play and to view. The only thing better is chasing people from Colorado around Central Park and stealing their Film-Tech Hats.

Congratulations to Austrailia we will take it back at your open

Yes, Bob.... everyone in Colorado has a Film-Tech hat. You are issued one when you move to the state or are born. I got my first Film-Tech hat when I was 2 months old. <rant mode> I wish people would stop moving into the state, though (especially Californians). They come in with all of their cash and raise the cost of living for everyone. </rant mode>

I didn't know dogs could play golf! Ya mean I've been raising a possible gold mine? I'll have to get my Aussie(shepard) to a course this weekend to see what she can hit
