Somebody hold, damn

Li just did.

 

[Slayerx]

Ok, that was just great.

 

[Niraj]

Let's see if she can serve this set out. Seems like Li is doing most of the work for her this match.

Edit: Come on! This is ridiculously bad

 

[Slayerx]

Both broken to love back to back, WTA.

 

[TTG]

[Niraj]

Radwanska loses her first set of the year. Damn.

 

[ag-my001]

Radwanska loses her first set of the year. Damn.

Just started watching, but her body language does not look good. Giving back the early break can't have helped.

 

[Niraj]

Yeah, way too passive and is hardly moving around. Hard to win playing like that. Disappointing so far, but who knows. Anything could happen.

 

[MIMIC]

Li up 2 sets and a break ^_^

 

[zero_suit]

Li finally isn't imploding. I'm shocked.

 

[LuuKyK]

Li finally isn't imploding. I'm shocked.

You can say that again. I totally expected Error Na to appear in this game. Way to prove me wrong. I suck at predictions. ~_~

 

[clemenx]

Li finally isn't imploding. I'm shocked.

Yeah, I am too. What is this sorcery?

Edit: Well, it was to early to claim she wouldn't do it. Oh well, she wins rather easily. I'm surprised.

Li

 

[Niraj]

Sloppy match overall from both, but Li pulled it together in the second. Hope she beats Sharapova.

 

[LuuKyK]

Another Li x Sharapova match next? :help

 

[MIMIC]

Nice work.

From what I saw, she played very well; she exercised a great combination of offense and defense throughout. Whenever I watch her play, she's usually bashing. Very nice to see her execute her strategy against a very tough and defensive opponent.

 

[clemenx]

No one beats Almagro 13 times in a row. Let's go!

 

[Good Job Bob]

Almagro!

Another Li x Sharapova match next? :help

Yeah, their matches are pretty shite.

 

[Speevy]

Almagro looks like he wants to murder Ferrer with an axe.

Go get him!

 

[qindarka]

Since when did Almagro serve so big? He has consistently topped 200 kmph on his first serve.

 

[Speevy]

Well then.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Almugro.

 

[Niraj]

Nico came to play

 

[LuuKyK]

I lurk on MTF a lot and Almugro is probably used more often than his actual name.

So you know that he's up a set and a break against the Vulture? =p

 

[qindarka]

Pity about the gloating Mark Lenders would do if Ferrer loses.

 

[LuuKyK]

So you know that he's up a set and a break against the Vulture? =p

yep.

and his equivalent in TF is radwanska, she is the queen vulture.

 

[rangersfan414]

What is this MTF u speak of?

 

[Good Job Bob]

The Mighty Midgets vs. Serena/Venus. Should be interesting.

 

[MIMIC]

FERRER IS 12-0 AGAINST ALMAGRO??? @_@

Holy shit, I had no idea

The most visited tennis forum and the second worst. Place is a cesspool.

Or a pusher..

It's terrible.

Woz used to have that title, but since she doesn't win anymore..

 

[qindarka]

Or a pusher..

It's terrible.

You should see the the Tennis Warehouse forums. Rabid Federer fans, rabid Nadal fans, people pretending to be rabid Federer fans, people pretending to be rabid Nadal fans, rabid Sampras fans, and pretentious 'historians' who are often rabid Laver fans. Place is a neverending flame war, every other thread in the General Pro Player Discussion is flamebait.

Yep. The allegiance some the posters there have with players... its fucking insane man.

Heh.

Here's a fun read: MTF Glossary of Terms

From the thread:

Tennis is a different sport after MTF, we popularized the word "mug" in the sport.
I think this thread must be read by all the newbies in the forum, the sport as they think of it, doesn't exist in MTF.

Just look at this, this is the current MTF top 10.
Top 10:

1. Mugdal
2. Mugovic
3. Fedmug
4. Mugray
5. Sodermug
6. Mugrrer
7. Mugdych
8. Mugdasco
9. Muglzer
10. Mugfils

Other important players that must be named.

1. Almugro
2. Mugdy Fish
3. Mugrin Mugic
4. Gilles Simug
5. Mug Mugtin Mug Mugtro

FACTS:
Every player is a mug, or will turn into a mug, or could be a mug if he wants.

There aren't "Bad mental moments", if you had MP with your serve and didn't won the match, you're a choker. And why? Cause you're a mug.

If you lose to a player 50 rankings after you. That was a tank. NID. And why did you tanked? cause you're a mug. Also a top player could turn you into a mug.

We can resume these three statements in a single sentence:
"If you lose, you're a mug".




Also if you win you're a mug too.

Oh, I'm well aware. I lurk on both of those cesspools. Does it really matter that much which player is the GOAT? There's no unanimous option (maybe if Fed won the CYGS).

 

[qindarka]

Incorrect fact there. It's not Mugdych, everyone knows his name is Birdshit.

Correct, and some dude always calls Federer Noserer. Makes me laugh for some reason.

Those Fed ones crack me up

Serverer
Clutcherer
Olderer
Arroganterer
JesusFed
GOATerer
Slicerer

Federer has a whole bucketload of nicknames. Federror (which I use because it's so apt), Fedmug, Frauderer, Olderer, Grandaderer and I'm sure I'm missing many more.

 

[MIMIC]

Oh snap. Nico up 2 sets and a break

 

[zero_suit]

Nice, Ferrer can't beat Djoker, even in the wind.

Mowgli is the best Nadull nickname because of me.
