  1. Jesus 34 unanswered points for the Eagles in the second half. Wow.
  2. Aw damn, TD Jacksonville...n/m my son punked me. OH YEAH, IT WAS THE EAGLES TD.
  3. Wow, Wake is just decimating Brady. Dolphins ball.
  4. Can't help but feel a proud Mama thing when CW is in beast mode. That's our boy.
  5. YESSSSSSSSSSSS, c'mon Eagles, don't let me down....
  6. ^I know and I hate them for it.
  7. Jesus, Survivor Pool pick is awful. LOL, knew I shouldn't have gone with the majority and used my own idea - what I get for leaving it to the wire. 17-0? Gah.
  8. Wow, what a pick that was (NE/Dolphins)
  9. Geez, hope Lulay's ok...Yell too. Well, if ever clawing out a win fit, this would be it. Wow, what a sleeper.
  10. Can't log in to my yahoo account (been awhile)...hoping after work is still time to do so? Gotta run, looking forward to joining so hope it's still open then! (Thanks so much for the heads up guys...love this time of year!)

    Too true. Milos does NOT look comfortable with the backhand...awkwardly switches to forehand at times. Needs some work there. Good match so far, in for a barnburner it seems.

    Raonic serving at 144 MPH out of the gate. Holy.

    Genie is a work in progress and has given us great reason to believe in her. These are building blocks and there's nothing like experience to draw on in looking forward. She'll be fine and I/we'll be in her corner. Can't win 'em all, but she also gives it a good go. I'm sure you saw her dehydrated and battling through that Plum? She didn't "get owned" by any means. And, in considering that she was under some obvious heat related stress, she did rather well to stay in it at all. But you're right WIN ALL THE TIEM.

    I think most countries like to promote their up and coming athletes and focus on the positive aspect when they win.. She did, afterall, win. Seems they also did factor in the "run of poor play", so it isn't totally biased. Some of her down the line and cross court winners were dazzling. They were perfectly placed and left Strycova no chance at them.

    It seems like the mental part of her game should maybe focus on not looking too far ahead of herself and staying in the moment. She has great composure, which likely helps with that as she doesn't seem to dwell on missed shots. But I see where often, when she has a clear opportunity to smash an overhead, etc. and has her opponent on the ropes she seemingly gets excited and it's too much/out. Like perhaps she is ahead of herself and has already won the shot without playing the shot. (Sure, like momentum and adrenalin don't factor in, right?). Anyhow, a few shots where she had it she failed to convert and, while that's just part of being human and any athlete will have those moments, some of it likely can be worked on to improve even more. Easy for me to say, sitting back as an armchair totally unqualified tennis coach. But it's an observation - when she has a chance at a clear winner or even opportunity to take charge, sometimes those get away from her. She'll be fine/awesome...experience is huge and she is showing some true champion form and composure...I don't like some of the attitude some others display. Sure, they're competitive and fired up but it gets to be overkill as they constantly sneer, shout and challenge shots and rulings.

    Let's go Genie, got a grip on this but she can't get ahead of herself.
  19. http://bclions.com/video/index/id/98911 Jesus, saw this firsthand (Bighill's leg strength)...after the loss, we were beside his wife/girlfriend who was standing on the rail as he was greeting us (fans) on the lower level. He took about two strides then leaped straight up, grabbed the lower level rail and gave her a smooch! It was awesome..apparently he does that every game. But to see that explosive leg strength in action - wow.
