Great game from both there. Nice to see Roger returning about a million % better than he did at Cincy.

Troll? I'm the troll here? Wow! Anyone want to know what we mean by projection. Follow this conversation! :help:

Btw.. it's funny how your estimation of his number of slams won with just the serve keeps dropping down. 20 to 7 to 5 or 6. Keep going... you're almost there now :lulz1:
Well first of all I did not say you are troll I said might be if think federer wins slams just on his baseline game, second the point I was trying to make is that in my opinion federer won 5 slams mostly not only because of his serve with that being the main weapon. Third federer has a way better serve then nadal just saying that if nadal had federer serve?

With the way Federer misses these days, one would think he is incapacitated.

I’ve only watched the third set but it seems Roger is playing well - his serve is on and his return looks much better than it has.

He wasn't this good in the first set. Maybe he started slow and needed to warm up. Not sure.

Only saw the third set but he looked excellent. Hope he keeps it up.

If Rafa had breasts he would be a lady. Now back to the real world :)

The first set was really worrying believe me, with Roger struggling to hold serve. I was thinking they could have gone to 5 sets. It was a fun match in the end because they are both shot makers.

Apparently a Euro commentator said she recently opened up the door naked for a doping agent thinking it was her husband. I think I may have found my new calling for a career :)

Haha nice! Doping agent referring to the syringe in his pocket to prepare for the test. Excuse me, while I whip this out :D

Sounds like Nick took the first set seriously and he was engaged in the third set too. A straight sets win is impressive given that. Now hopefully Roger takes care of Millman quick and gets ready for a Djoker war.
