Sorry for the spoiler :)

No problem. I don't mind. It's still a very entertaining match. And I think I can enjoy it a little more know who loses. Both guys are playing some great tennis though. Although I'm still sad my dream for a Verdasco/Nadal semis didn't happen.
Tommy: He's got a line about me. Tell him the line.

Mike: Everybody 60 or over knows Tommy as a player. Everybody 40 or over knows Tommy as a coach. Everybody 20 or over knows Tommy as a broadcaster. And everybody 10 or under thinks he's Shrek.

I have been so busy lately, I cant keep track of my own time, nevermine British time.   It is not the first, nor will it be the last, that I have felt a "little" bit foolish,  ::)

No it's not you. It's NBC's crazy programming. And ESPN can't broadcast the matches or discuss the results until NBC finally gets round to showing the matches. I don't know how they don't switch the schedule around so they can show the matches live.

Wow Nadal falls completely asleep and gets broken at love 1st game 3rd set. Misha did he win in straights? Because I can bet Murray holds on to this break and then chokes it away at 5-4.

I'm like that too. If I know that a player I root for won, it takes the stress part out.

Verdasco - Nadal game is always a enjoyable match, though Fernando is usually not playing his best on grass. That Australian Open semi final in 09 was a classic.

I have all the sports channels, including Tennis Channel...but I didn't check, didnt check on line either!  I just figured England is is about 6 hours ahead of us, and it was live!  It is a better match than I thought it would be though.

You didn't like following it in the Chat Room?

I think the game threads are a pain in the neck, lol

Of course Murray choked. He wouldn't be Andy Murray otherwise.

It was. I've being waiting for another from them since them. So close at the French but Fernando had to lose to Almagro.

@ tb18 I love the chat room. I didn't know y'all were going to be there so I came looking for this thread instead.

LOL. And at 4-3. Even quicker than I gave him credit for.

I wasn't in chat today, and cant stay in there now...but I don't think any one would mind if you talked to someone in there as long as it is not being used for official Celtics stuff (a game, draft, etc.)

And gets broken again right after to end the match. I'm not even a Murray fan and I have to facepalm at this. I know Nadal is relentless but he could at least have gotten it to a tiebreak.

With Murray emergence, the british thought they would finaly have a local champion after 457454 years. But for now he seems like direct Tim Henman successor - semi finalist at best.

OK....welcome to the Lady's Final
 
Everyone here seems to be behind Vera, but I am taking Serena.  From my lofty perch, she doesn't seem so old....  ;D
