Rafa definitely not himself so far

No, not at all. Pretty awful, in fact. In the first few games, though, he looked great. Since then ...

Ralf looking a little bit more like himself. Kohli's level's come down, which is to be expected. Nearly impossible to redline your play for a whole match. And the NYC drunks are getting vociferous in the stands.

Rafa showing the type of fight that is totally missing from Roger after a poor start

Kohl is still hitting well, Rafa came up with great stuff to avoid being broken last game

Probably went down after he looked at the jumbotron and saw what was happening to Fed. Bad play can reach across stadiums...

I wouldn't know personally Nehmeth. I'm considered a lightweight around these parts.

If Daveed does nothing else, he survives Darth.

Yeah I know that all too well. At this point I am hoping Roger never plays him again. I don't know if I can deal with the possibility of Roger losing to the Ferret.
