2015 U.S. Open Final: Djokovic v. Federer

[Denis]

Djokovic is usually the one unnerved by these later than supposed to be starts.

Really? When did that happen?

I don't remember this happening either.

You could argue some of those stop-start french open were not great for Novak, but that seems like a different animal than a 2 hour delay.

thank god i live in US lol.

Meh. That only happened once and sunny dry conditions at the French heavily favour Nadal. That was more of a reason he could not win the next day, certainly not because he was unravelled.

Me too. I think I'm out.

Guinea pigs on court? What an odd idea...

Everyone knows Venezuelan Castors are much more appropriate to do that... even badgers would be better.

guinea pigs make a rather charming squeak though.

:snicker

You are wrong though, nobody beats the tasmanian devil! He would cover every inch of the ground faster than Nadal, Hewitt, Borg and a hungry Nalbandian combined! It's 23:15 in Germany right now, I don't think it will start before midnight. I have to go to work at 05:00 in the morning. It's going to be a loooong day at the office but it's worth it. I remember looking, talking and acting like a zombie at work a decade ago coming off a full night marathon of Baghdatis vs. Agassi on Ashe without any sleep...

My vote goes to the ai (2-toed sloth)

Not gonna watch it so? I don't feel that bad now but the thought of work tomorrow with less than 3 hours sleep is a killer

I might catch the first set. If they start in 15 min at least. If its another hour than Im defintely checking the scoreline tomorrow morning.

Yeah, I doubt I'll watch the whole thing either. To say I'm completely and utterly p1$$3D off is an understatement :nono

 

[Kirijax]

You guys are wussies! If Murray was in the final, I'd be calling in sick, kiss the wife, kids and cat goodbye, stock up on essentials and hole up in a hotel somewhere that has a wide screen and stake out until the final is over.

I don't know why they schedule such a late start anyway. Even 4:00 PM in NYC is 9 or 10 PM in Europe.

 

[Riotbeard]

I don't care if I have to stay up until 10 p.m. tonight. I am watching the whole thing!

 

[Backhand_DTL]

OK. folks, I will be very tense today as I want to Fed to win at least this time. So, I won't be chirping in too much.

Nobody beats Roger three times consecutively in a hard court slam, not even Novak.

Go Fed!

Nadal already achieved that at the Australian Open (2009, 2012, 2014), so Novak wouldn't break new ground with a win

Me too, but I feel bad for our friends who aren't in North or South America.

Smartass

Yes me too. This should be a good one.

Maybe it has to do with the US time zones. The folks in California can watch it at noon at least this way (I think?). That would be a good reason for them I guess.
