We put the tie in Roddick's home town and on slick indoor surface, and
to top it all off Nadal isn't playing and .... we're down 0-2 anyway.

what an abortion ...

Since you used we implying that you had something to do with it, if you
served and returned better, it would be 1-1.

Well we always knew you're worthless.

Maybe Spaniards are doing well now because they got used to strange and
fast DC surfaces at France last year...

Anyway, if Spain wins they'll meet France in Spain...prob Monfils+Tsonga.

Could meet Argentina in the final, facing Delpo+Nalby in Spain.
But more likely they'll meet Serbs, in Serbia. That should be a
cracker...would come down to Djok-Nad battle probably.

Vamos!

Well you never know. The pressure would probably be on Djokovic this time.

Gasquet was picked over Tsonga to play on the german clay this week end.
Tsonga only played the double (with Llodra)
Not sure if Forget would dare to play Gasquet against the spaniards in Spain
though ...

Gasquet won the match after being 2 sets and a break down in the third. The
german served for the match at 5-4, but did some epic choking, not being
able to win a single point on his serve ... I am sure Gasquet was proud of
him. (after all, at 4-4 in the third, Gasquet managed to lose his serve on a
DF and he lost the first two sets after being twice the first to break in
the set)

Sad but not that surprising. Ferrer has always been a very tough
matchup for Roddick.
