Djoker looking really good out there. Really manhandled Roddick in the
first set.

Fed better watch out.

I don't see him beating Fed on this court. However, yeah, we are always in
danger of underestimating any of thes guys (even if through experience :)
...they can all turn it on in their day.

You are on record as not seeing anyone beating Fed on the court and
seeing a lot of guys beating Nadal. And your record this year speaks
for itself...

Hey, you did say Djokovic will win the grand slam in 2008. Pot/
kettle? :)

And I'll tell you what....every one of my predictions that went wrong were a
*damned* lot closer than that. :)

Except that you don't have to go as far back as 2008 to see some of
felangey's miserable predictions - remember here is a guy who didn't
give Nadal much of a chance at the FO this year...

And you are the miserable prick who keep slying about what I said. Remember
why I said he wouldn't win it....and why that couldn't come to fruition?

Del P and the faster balls they have been using at RG. Anybody who
thinks that a player who has lost just once in his first 5 trips to RG
doesn't stand a chance to win it this year because of someone who he
has only lost to on his worst surface and who has never even been in
the final of RG ever in his career, deserves to be ridiculed all the
same...

Ok. Show me the post where I said he had 'no chance'.

Oh and then....give us a quick slam by slam run down of how Nole got on with
his GS.

Why do you keep insisting on going back to 2008? Lets look at my
record for 2010 and compare it against yours...

Why not. If someone deserves to be ridiculed for not picking Nadal to win
the FO this year....they sure as hell need tormented for life for thinking
that *NOLE* had a GS in him. Heehee.

>Lets look at my record for 2010 and compare it against yours...<

Like Giovannas winning formula for 2009? Pick Fed/Nadal. Taaa-daaaHHHHH! You
must be proud of your tier onedness.

IIRC, you never explicitly said "no chance" but it was clear from your
posts that you didn't give Nadal much of a chance at RG - which is what
I said in my reply to SliceDice. My post above should have said "doesn't
stand much of a chance to win it this year". But everything else stands
as stated...

I don't believe in this tier-1 business. But I am tired of ppl going
back to 2008 to find my wildly off predictions, when my record this year
has been pretty much spotless. The same can't be said for you...

Exaclty, nobody is going back anywhere to see my predictions, because I
never ruined my lifelong tennis-predicting reputation by saying
that....lol....*NOLE* was on the GS. NOLE! lol.....just for posterity, you
should do a wee post telling us how you arrived at that bronzed droplet. It
is after all famed in rst history. You can't blame the people here that we
like to remember it as a highlight. :)

Yeah, I have been on the skids this year....the only two Nads/Feds
prediction I got right were that Muzz would wip the floor with the
moonballer at the AO and that Fed would win the AO. It went downhill from
there. Whatchyagonna do.

Stop cutting posts in the middle - my point stands as stated. Del P
and "faster balls" means Nadal won't win the FO - LOL...

Yeah, Nadal just improved beyond sight at FO 2008 and Nole has been
stuck on
one slam ever since...

I said that I felt the fast balls would give Del P the edge over Nadal at
FO....and that is a theory which has not been put to the test. Lol away.

Why? That was the relevant point. You first told me, nae ridiculed me, for
saying Nadal had no chance....then you stated that I didn't actually say
those words. Nary an apology was forthcoming. Now I'm not allowed to hold
you to account by daring to edit your precious posts. You have jumped the
shark dude. Fuhgeddaboutit.

Lol....you make it sound so logical. Easy mistake to make....NOLE for the
GS. I've made the same mistake myself several times. Lol.

>Not a record to be proud of...<

I really think you miss the point of this NG.

See my original post to SliceDice - I said "much of a chance". After
this, you jumped in and I mistakenly said "no chance". Either way,
Nadal not having much of a chance in RG because of a player he only
has lost to in hardcourts (and when a lot of other players had been
beating him) is hilarious...

Rahimasif spake forth:

"Anybody who thinks that a player who has lost just once in his first 5

trips to RG *doesn't stand a chance*"

Did you or did you not say that in reference to me? You are such a weasel.
Quick to talk crap....slow to apologise.

It didn't just sound like 'sorry'. You shout your mouth off, you should at
least add an apology with your retractions. Unless you have keyboard
tourettes? In which case, I can let it slide.
