The Djoker fans only come out when he’s winning, that’s why. Largely anyway, I know @don_fabio and @Fiero425 are regular posters regardless of the score. Sometimes anyway it’s not a bad idea to stop posting for a while, get some head space!
Funny you mention that one, sister, I watched the final set last night before going to bed. Rafa was so tough and lean, really fearless, and I could finally appreciate Roger too, he was cool under pressure, great efforts to try break Rafa’s serve, immense shot making from both of them. Impossible to imagine how we all survived that match intact. It’s certainly the greatest match since the 1980 deity of tennis matches.That's because you still come around and discuss all in PMs, so our point is that you may as well post publicly.
Since today is tennis-free, for those who have Tennis Channel, at 11:30am ET today you can watch a rerun of that old chestnut, Nadal d. Federer Wimbledon '08.
Wow I didn't remember Federer was that close to winning! I remember he had a break point in the 5th. I must re watch the match sometimeFunny you mention that one, sister, I watched the final set last night before going to bed.

Roger was 2 points from winning, which also means he was 2 points from triggering a mass spontaneous combustion of millions of Rafa fans!
He had break point at 4-3, and I think it was 30-all at 5-4, and maybe another Rafa service game after that. I got too tense watching it even 14 years later - but I really admired how confidently Rafa swatted away these threats!Wow I didn't remember Federer was that close to winning!

If I recall correctly, it was at the point in the match their level of play was at the highest and I had the utmost confidence that Rafa was still in control of his destiny. IMO
I think I get baited by my sistas to post because they're always picking on my pick of so called scrubs players. Kieran it's their way of saying they miss me brotha.That's because you still come around and discuss all in PMs, so our point is that you may as well post publicly.
