    Tennis

    Anyone watch or play Tennis here? Anyone following Wimbeldon this year? I've been a big fan of Tennis for about 2-3 years now, it gets very addictive looking at it. I've also decided to give playing it a shot so I'm gonna sign up to the town club. Lastly, Roger Federer is the man!

    Yeah very much so, and he will regain his #1 ranking if he does claim it. I like Andy Roddick, but Federer deserves to placed in the record books tomorrow.

    I'm so glad Roddick beat Murray. I can't stand that little twerp. Now I'm rooting for Roddick over Federer. Federer can suck my meat.

    I don't play Tennis, but I love watching it on TV. If I have the time I like to follow all the big Grand Slam tournaments.

    Also, Denmark has a tennis "star", Caroline Wozniacki. She's no. 9 on the world list, so it's also interesting to follow her.

    Oh I didn't see we had a thread about this. I was hoping Roddick would beat Federer too and was pretty gutted he didn't. I always root for the underdog in tennis.

    I was only watching the matches Federer was in, hehe. I must say, I was really happy when he won yesterday.
    I also love to play tennis, although I'm not really that good.

    Love tennis. Great to see Federer winning the French this year to complete the Grand Slam set and then to follow it up by winning Wimbledon, beating Sampras' record and reclaiming Number 1 is amazing. Still, I hope Nadal comes back soon. I love watching Nadal v Fed. Who will win the US Open? Would love Roddick to have a good run...

    old tennis was interesting but now they scream every time the ball comes near them... its like watching two jackasses play mortal combat and bitch at each other

    I play tennis occasionally. My dad's side of the family are big about tennis, both playing and watching. I don't play nearly as much, but I'm competent. I'll also watch tennis sometimes, but I don't really keep up with it.

    Roger Federer is a badass, though.

    Not as boring as cricket but less exciting than boxing
