Hey Castle,

Thanks for the wishes, General CD. The first thing I noticed as a Global Mod is the 2 reported posts made by Alex.;)

I really love that Nadal 8 times image. Really well done... and when you combine it with Jerzy's "How Many Times...?" genius.

que pasa general slasher. damn good to see you mate.


you are a great person slasher. I am glad things are working out for you.


and you are winning fans everywhere.

we will support your efforts in everything you do.



that image is just crazy. nadal`s 8 RG crowns is just ridiculous. it is just mind numbing stuff to be honest with you.




jerzy is such a charismatic dude. that particular picture was taken at the aussie open last year if I am not mistaken.



I am just goofing off with the images as usual.

Hey Castle folks.

Nice pieces of history you're showing for us, General. My wife loves medieval castles, and always enjoys visiting them.:D

My daughter's first birthday was Tuesday. Getting ready to party this weekend. :snigger

Nadal practicing on his hard court in Manacor this week...

Zimonjic and others: Hey Rafa, que pasa? (Hey Rafa, what happens?)
Nadal: Ay, mi rodilla...es el momento de hacer mas. (Oh, my knee... it's time to do something else.)

Always loved castles when I was a kid and we were a bit spoilt for choice in the UK with so many.

The king of castles to visit if you ever get the opportunity is the Tower of London. Amazing place.

Impossible to determine without seeing the Flop, Turn and River, you know. The dealt hand is not the final hand.;)

Affirmative, Rafa learned the fine art of bluffing via PokerStars.

happy birthday to your daughter general slasher the invincible.


I have yet to visit any castles in Europe but I will get there sooner or later.


English castles and the castles in Scotland would be a lot of fun to see. those will be the first ones I will want to see.

I have a cousin who was raised and educated in England but managed to marry a very wealthy French woman. and I do mean very bloody wealthy.


rest as they is history. now he owns a real castle in france and resides like a king in Switzerland



I have fascinated by castles ever since I was a child.

great stuff general masterclass. keep it coming.

and then the world wonder why his movement and his ground game is in shambles.


he has near zero confidence in his backhand. that ends up affecting him on the return as well as he looks to hit forehands there too.

in the process he gives up 1/2 the damn court just as he gives it up in a normal rally.

the levels of his game and his fitness have taken a hit. there was a real opportunity here.


nole is under pressure and roger is getting old. he could be picking up points and left and right.

Yes, happy birthday to your daughter Sir Slasher!

Affirmative General Hercules. I thought for sure Rafa would take an opportunity to jump on the clay this summer and try to keep his fitness and make improvements on his return and ground game. There must be about 8 tournaments on clay.

35 year old veteren Tommy Haas has not been idle. He just took down Berlocq the Warlock in straight sets on the Hamburg Center Clay Court. He'll play the Italian magician Fabio Fognini next.

Roger Federer and Jan Hajek have taken the court and are starting to warm up now for their match.

Respectfully,
masterclass

That's great! Thanks for sharing. I love the last few seconds (which I won't ruin by describing here).

don't know what is going on with the clay warrior general but logging in hours on the hard courts is extremely risky.

he is being reckless again.


evidently he has no regard for his knee or his longevity.


tommy and roger continue to shake and bake in hamburg.


order of play for hamburg tomorrow. tommy gets fabio and roger has to deal with florian mayer.
